I have a few questions about the tax free childcare scheme, particularly for anyone who pays for 2 or more children.

I know you pay into the childcare account, then for every 80p you add the government adds 20p up to the limit.

Do they pay in every time we do, or do they pay in once every 3 months? (I've seen its capped at £500 per child, every 3 months.)

How do you differentiate that you're paying in for 2 children? If we can, we would pay in one lump sum each month to make it easier on our budget.

Also if your childminder bill varies a bit from one month to the next, can you pay in a uniform amount each month knowing that it's a bit more than this month's bill but the extra goes toward the next month's bill? EG could we aim for a combined £710 going in every month, knowing the bill is £690 this month & £721 next month?

What do YOU judge

Clearly, no one is a perfect parent nor do we know everything. But what’s something you judge a parent off of or just irks you?

I have older children and working on baby #4 maybe I should have clarified the age group
Yes wild children in stores if my 3 year old knows better your 6 year old definitely
Omg reading this makes me not want to go out ever again. But then again I would

Bills

How much does your bills/rent/mortgage add up per month?

Ah okay makes sense now!
Mortgage+car+electricity+water+tv+phones+internet+grocery shopping = 3000 (husband and I)
We're a bit under $2,000. Just DH works but I normally work over the summer and contribute

How do you and your partner split household bills? Does one person pay everything? Or do you guys split it half and half?

:)

mamaof2soon To all ladies who have a joint account I’m terrified out that being my/our only account because
