Funding for 3 and 4 Year Olds

The Welsh Government recognises that affordable, available, and accessible childcare enables parents to work, supporting its drive to increase economic growth, tackle poverty and reduce inequalities.

The Childcare Offer provides up to 30 hours a week of funded early education and childcare for 3 and 4-year-olds. The offer is for a combination of childcare provision and Foundation Phase Nursery early education and covers up to 48 weeks of the year.
