FUNDING

Childcare Choices:
We accept the following options (subject to eligibility and claim): Universal Entitlement, Extended Entitlement, Tax-Free Childcare & Childcare Vouchers.

We also accept Expanded Entitlement (Working Parent) Funding for 2 yr olds from April 2024 (subject to HMRC eligibility check)
Please note: where parents wish their child to attend for free early education hours only, these are available 8:30am – 11:30am Monday – Friday. Note: We operate a waiting list, subject to availability, for completely free places.

Those claiming funding must meet the requirements set out by the Local Authority. A “Parent Declaration for the Free Entitlements” form (click on the file above Bracknell Forest Council - parent-declaration-form.pdf) accompanied by copy of birth certificate must be completed, signed and submitted to Tiggywinkles for processing and approval with the Local Authority.
