• your net worth is below the net worth threshold
• you are not eligible for the child care allowance or any other child care subsidy

The municipality pays the costs directly to the daycare center. You will not receive any money yourself.

Are you eligible for the child care subsidy?

Are you and your partner employed, or are you enrolled in an educational program, an integration course, or a reintegration program through the municipality?
If so, you are often eligible for a childcare allowance from the Tax and Customs Administration. In that case, you cannot receive free toddler care. You may be able to receive reimbursement for the personal contribution through special assistance.
