Funding hours & maternity leave

2 replies

So currently got two boys one who’s 2 (3 at end of September) & 4 week old so I’m on maternity leave.

my eldest has just received a place in local nursery but they need funding code. Am I eligible for this funding even when on maternity leave with another child? I was entitled before I took maternity leave.

My partner thinks we’re not entitled to it until I go back, but I read it as we are entitled for my eldest but not my youngest until I go back.

Yes you're right, funding continues for an older child in childcare but not the baby until you are about to return to work.

Yep DD1 got her 30 free hours while I was on maternity leave with DD2. A lot of her friends also had mothers on maternity leave when they turned 3, we all were able to use the free hours for them.
