<p>The Childcare Choices website provides information on whether parents could be
eligible for a range of government childcare offers, including 30 hours free childcare.
Parents can apply for Tax-Free Childcare and 30 hours free childcare through the digital
Childcare Service, which is accessible via Childcare Choices. Providers do not sign
up to offer 30 hours free childcare via the Childcare Service.</p><p> </p><p>As of
30 June, successful parent applications have generated 98,579 valid 30 hours eligibility
codes through the service. Since the service opened on 21 April 2017 to families that
have children who will be under 4 on 31 August 2017, the number of valid 30 hours
eligibility codes generated are as follows: 6,472 in April, 31,853 in May and 52,218
in June.</p><p> </p><p>We do not hold data on whether they have subsequently signed
up with a provider.</p>
