Childcare Providers - Have You Activated your Tax-Free Childcare Account ?

If you are a Registered Childcare Provider or Childminder, you can boost your business and help reduce cost for working families by activating your Tax-Free Childcare Account to make sure families can access government support when using your services.

How do I sign up as a provider?

An invitation letter will be sent to you once we receive your details from your regulator. If you’ve recently registered as a childcare provider, this may take a few weeks.

Your invitation letter will contain your unique user ID to sign up online and will also tell you what other details you need to sign up.

See more information on the Childcare Choices Website :-

If you are already registered and haven’t received (or have lost) your invitation letter, you should contact the Childcare Service Helpline : 0300 123 4097
