Childcare cost with universal credit

Hi, I just wanted to ask. I know that if I’m on the universal credit and I also work I can get up to 85% of childcare cost back however the job I found you only work just 3h/week it’s part-time/permanent job, but you can always work different days so one week it might be Tuesday and other week Friday. Do you know how does it work then? I have nearly 3 years old and 5 months old. I want 3 years old to go there full time and 5 months old only twice a week for afternoon session while I’m at work. Does the universal credit still pay something for childcare cost even if I go only for 3h a week? I am considering this job because I don’t want to leave my 5 months old in nursery yet for too long since he’s still too little but really would like to go back to work.
Can anyone advice please? I’d really appreciate it. Thank you very much.
