Voucher benefits

Wednesday, August 2, 2006

It is with great interest that I read the many comments from childcare providers on Nursery World's letters page with regard to the Government's childcare voucher scheme. As providers of such a scheme, we fully appreciate the problems it must cause nurseries in dealing with a multitude of childcare voucher providers. As well as ensuring that the nurseries are paid electronically on the same day of every month, and with each payment being individually referenced to the child concerned, we also provide a system whereby if the nursery chooses us as their 'preferred childcare provider' and is willing to use our promotional literature with their parents, we will give them a cut of our fee.
