My childrens’ grandmother looks after them, and I pay her. Can I use the Childcare vouchers to pay her?
• Childcare provided by a relative of the child is generally not eligible for payment through childcare vouchers. The only way that you could use vouchers in this way is if your relative is a registered childcare provider who provides a service primarily for children to whom they are not related. The childcare in this circumstance would have to be provided outwith the child’s own home.
