Employers

Employers For Childcare has been supporting both employers and parents in the workplace since 1998. Our range of services aims to help families strike a work-life balance and to encourage employers to implement family friendly policies in the workplace.

Our services to employers include:

• Administering the only Social Enterprise Childcare Voucher scheme in the UK – we reinvest 100% of the profit we make from our social enterprise activities into our charity. Employers who already offer Childcare Vouchers to their staff can choose to switch provider to Employers For Childcare.
• Providing an advice helpline, which is a great resource for employers who need information on issues such as maternity / paternity legislation, flexible working and family friendly policies. This is particularly useful for smaller employers who may not have a dedicated HR department in-house.

For more information on how we can support your business and your employees call 028 9267 8200 or email hello@employersforchildcare.org – we would love to hear from you.

Employers For Childcare is a certified Social Enterprise and a member of Social Enterprise NI.

Our Family Benefits Advice Service works with employers in a range of ways – we can deliver outreach and advice sessions to groups of employees, or arrange one-to-one calls to carry out a personalised ‘better off’ calculation eg for a new employee joining an organisation, who wishes to find what financial support is available to them, including with childcare. We can also participate in employer-led events such as roadshows or wellness days – subject to availability of the team. Watch the video below to find out more about how the Family Benefits Advice Service works with employers.

Employers For Childcare also delivers presentations on the support available with childcare costs to other organisations who are supporting their members or stakeholders to ensure they are accessing all the financial support they are entitled to.
