Families across Ceredigion will be able to access an expanded Welsh Government childcare offer from November 2026, with funded places becoming available to eligible two-year-olds in all areas of the county.
The offer will give eligible children 12.5 hours of funded childcare each week. Provision will be delivered through Ceredigion’s network of registered childcare providers.
Councillor Alun Williams, Cabinet Member for Through Age Wellbeing, Support and Care, said: “We are delighted that from November 2026 families across the whole of Ceredigion will be able to benefit from the expanded Welsh Government childcare offer.”
“This investment in our youngest children will help ensure they have the best possible start in life, while also providing valuable support to parents and carers. By extending the offer county-wide, we are creating greater opportunities for families and helping more children access high-quality early years experiences that support their development and future wellbeing.”
Parents and carers can find out more about the funded offer through Flying Start on the council’s website, or by contacting the Flying Start team on [email protected] or 01545 570 881.
