What parents need to know about paying for childcare and other sources of financial help for families

With the changes in benefits support affecting Enfield's families this week, more and more parents are asking us to help them find ways of maximising their income. The good news is that we've updated our whole Max Up range, which helps Enfield's parents to maximise their income by providing useful hints and tips about claiming tax credits, housing benefit, the free entitlement to early education and more!

Why not read our newly updated guide Max Up your income - What parents need to know about ways to pay for childcare  which will guide you to sources about ways to pay for childcare? This guide aims to help parents by giving information about tax credits and other local sources of help to pay the costs of childcare. It contains details of free support and helpline organisations and information websites.
