Individuals who are in receipt of maternity benefits remain eligible for the 30 hours free childcare entitlement.<\/p>

Those who are currently receiving statutory maternity pay and are intending to return to work, should apply for a 30 hours place in the usual way.<\/p>

If an individual\u2019s return to work date is delayed, or their hours affected solely due to the COVID-19 outbreak, they will remain eligible for 30 hours if their loss of income is directly due to the outbreak. For example, if they have been furloughed or are accessing the self-employment income support scheme.<\/p>

The government\u2019s guidance about Tax-Free Childcare and 30 hours free childcare during the COVID-19 outbreak is available here:
