flag Nearly 340,000 UK families miss out on free childcare due to confusing rules, costing up to £73 daily.

flag Nearly 340,000 UK families are missing out on free childcare they qualify for, potentially losing up to £73 per day due to complex rules and unclear eligibility, with childcare costs rising 40% since 2022. flag Despite government-funded hours and the Tax-Free Childcare scheme—where the government adds £2 for every £8 parents contribute—many parents don’t claim benefits, facing hidden fees and inconsistent pricing. flag Experts warn the lack of transparency creates financial stress and urge families to review contracts, request full cost breakdowns, and plan for gaps during holidays and closures.
