Camden Council provides eligible 9 months to four-year-olds free early education and childcare places for up to 30 hours per week. 

All three and four-year-olds are entitled to 15 hours a week of free early education from the term after their third birthday. Residents can contact childcare providers for further information on how to access a funded childcare place. Some three and four-year-olds may also be eligible for an additional 15 hours of free childcare.
