Under the Childcare Offer for Wales, you could claim up to 30 hours of early education and childcare a week, for up to 48 weeks of the year. This government-funded childcare scheme aims to lessen the burden of childcare costs so that you can spend the money you’ve saved on the things that matter most to your family.
It’s constantly growing and making new connections. When you play, listen and talk with your little one, you help them learn to talk and give them the best start in life. We have lots of tools, tips and advice to help you get your little one talking.
The little things you do with them will make a big difference, now and in their future.
Are you passionate about shaping the lives of children and making a positive impact on both them and their families? A career in childcare is unique and rewarding with no two days the same. You get to be part of a child’s early education and help to shape their future, watching them grow, learn and thrive.
