Childcare Subsidy From Creche

Emmser · 2017-09-16 17:55:04

Hi all, I'm based in Portlaoise and any creche I've looked at doesn't offer this. They tell me it's too much paperwork and only benefits me and not them! I'm limited since my child is nine months. Not all crèches cater for this.

They will give you list of creches which operate the subsidy ( and which are, of course, also registered with Tusla.)

The lowest age for the child to be eligible for the subsidy is 6 months.
