Community Childcare Subvention (CCS) Programme<\/h2>\n

The CCS programme supports disadvantaged parents and provides support for parents in low paid employment and training or education by enabling qualifying<\/i><\/b> parents to avail of reduced childcare costs.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/div>\n

\u00a0National Childcare Scheme<\/h2>\n

The National Childcare Scheme is a pathway to truly accessible, affordable, quality childcare. From October 2019 it replaced all previous targeted childcare programmes with a single, streamlined and user-friendly scheme to help parents meet the cost of quality childcare.<\/p>\n

There are two types of subsidies under the National Childcare Scheme:<\/p>\n

Universal Subsidies<\/strong>\u00a0are available to all families with children under three years old. They are also available to families with children over three years who have not yet qualified for the free preschool programme (ECCE). This subsidy is\u00a0not means tested<\/strong> and provides 50c per hour towards the cost of a registered childcare place for up to a maximum of 45 hours per week.<\/p>\n

Income Assessed Subsidies<\/strong>\u00a0are available to families with children aged between 24 weeks and 15 years. This subsidy is\u00a0means tested\u00a0<\/strong>and will be calculated based on your individual circumstances. Your rate will vary depending on\u00a0your level of family income, your child\u2019s age and educational stage, and the number of children in your family<\/strong>. The subsidy can be used towards the cost of a registered childcare place for up to a maximum of 45 hours if you are working, studying or training, or in circumstances where you are unavailable for childcare, and a maximum of 20 hours if you are not working, studying or training.<\/p>\n
