Government Schemes
Cocoon childcare believes that the first five years of life are particularly important to a child’s development. This is when children develop basic learning patterns and abilities that they will use for the rest of their lives.
By choosing Cocoon for your child’s you can be assured that every member of our team is focused on helping your child reach their full potential and to give them a foundation for “a love of learning” that they will carry with them all their lives. Below is information regarding the state funded schemes offering support for parents and children.
Did you know that apart from the ECCE Scheme, the government offer a range of schemes depending on your circumstances.
National Childcare Scheme (NCS)
