#60: 30 Free Hours Childcare: The Truth About What It Means for Your Family, Finances & Relationship
Update: 2025-08-21
Description
It’s being called the biggest boost for working parents in years - 30 free hours of childcare a week. The government says it will save you thousands, give you more career freedom, and take the pressure off at home.
In this episode, we’re cutting through the headlines to talk about:
- The real numbers (hint it is not really 30 hours a week!), how much you’ll actually save (and what you’ll still have to pay for)
- Why the September rollout might hit capacity problems before it even starts
- The developmental pros and cons for your child, especially under-twos
- How to make sure these hours benefit both of you, not just one partner
- What it means for families as a whole and in the long term
This isn't just about childcare it is about out society.
