    Hi @chelsea1999 I've found this on the website which looks to confirm you can if you're being paid carers allowance. You can check if you're eligible and apply here too - Get free childcare if you're working: Check if you're eligible - GOV.UK

    If you’re not currently working

    You may still be eligible if your partner is working, and you are on carer’s leave or if you get any of the following: 

    • Incapacity Benefit 
    • Severe Disablement Allowance 
    • Carer’s Allowance 
    • Limited Capability for Work Benefit 
    • contribution-based Employment and Support Allowance

    Hope the above is helpful 🙂
