Splitting Free 15 hour Entitlement

[Doodle4]

Hello,

Could anyone clarify for me if I can split the 15 hour free childcare entitlement this way? One provider has two days open which would total 12 hours a week, leaving 3 hours for another setting...Is it possible for the first provider to only claim 12 hours leaving 3 hours for me to find another provider to claim? Cheers

Hello, yes it is possible to split the funding like this, but you may find it harder to find a provider just for 3 hours a day unless it’s a pre school etc who only offer 3 hour sessions during the day.
