Nursery 15 hours questions

When they turn 3 you’ll be entitled to 15hrs free without the need to be working. It would kick in the term after she turned 3 so in your case April

You will get 15 hours free for non working parents, through your local council. Not the government x

oh thought it was from age 2

If you’re not working you’ll only get the hours when she turns 2 if you’re on benefits. If not you have to wait until she’s 3. Even then the hours only come in the term after she turns these ages, so you won’t get them until the April in either situation.

Do you claim and benefits? If not it’s from 3. I’m a SAHM myself

Ah I see, thank you ladies.

See my comment incog, once the child is 2 x

If one parent doesn’t work, you’ll get 15 funded hours starting from the term after they turn 3.

I'm a SAHM. I've got my son booked in to preschool when he turns 3 in April 2026. We get 15 hours then, but not entitled to anything now. As far as I know anyway
