Exciting small grants opportunity for childcare providers creating 2 year old and under places

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our Small Grants for New Places initiative, designed to support childcare providers in creating new places for children aged 2 years and under in support the September 2025 Working Entitlement rollout of 30 hours for children from 9 months.

This is a fantastic opportunity to enhance your services and make a significant impact on early childhood development in your community.

The grant can be utilised to purchase additional resources and revenue that support the development of provision of places for children aged 2 years and under.

We are particularly interested in supporting providers who are developing new places in areas where data has identified a shortfall in provision for children aged 2 years and under.

Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to grow your services and contribute to the well-being of young children in your community. Apply now and be part of this limited initiative!

For more information and to apply go to: Application Form for Expansion of 2 year olds and under. May 2025

Closing date for applications is midnight on 25th May 2025
