Making childcare more affordable.

The Government are trying to encourage working parents by helping them with the cost of their childcare through a Salary Sacrifice scheme. The scheme enables parents to take a part of their salary as childcare vouchers on a tax and National Insurance Contribution free basis.  From 6th April 2011 typical savings are as follows

	Basic Rate Taxpayer	Higher Rate Taxpayer	Additional Rate Taxpayer
Weekly sacrifice	£55	£28	£22
Monthly sacrifice	£243	£124	£97
Typical saving	£933	£623	£606

Employers can also save money as they do not pay NIC on the amount sacrificed by the parent.

Joining and administering the scheme is easy. To find out more visit the rest of the site or to request an information pack please click here.
