Is your wee one reaching two years old ?
Did you know about this 🙂

Terrific Twos Entitlement - have you discovered the big benefits of Early Learning and Childcare?

The really good bit is around a quarter of 2 year olds are entitled to up to 1140 hours of subsidised childcare.

This is free to you, funded by the Scottish Government and local authorities like us. That works out at about 30 hours a week if you use it during school term-time, or around 22 hours a week if you use it all year round. You can access Early Learning Childcare at nurseries, childminders, or playgroups. Find out more -

How to access funded early learning and childcare for 2-year-olds.
