The programme will develop quality childcare supports and services, delivered at local level through the City and County Childcare Committees under the coordination of Pobal.
Capital grants to develop childcare facilities are available to childcare providers in both the private and community sector.
Private sector applicants may apply for grant assistance of up to $100,000 towards the capital cost of developing a childcare facility in a catchments area where there is a demonstrated childcare need. An applicant may apply for more than one grant, provided the subsequent childcare facilities are in different catchments areas and subject to an overall ceiling of $500,000. In each case, an applicant must provide at least 25% of the total funding required for the project.
Community/not-for-profit sector applicants may apply for grant assistance towards the capital cost of developing a childcare facility based on a demonstrated childcare need in the area. The level of funding will be determined by the number of places the group proposes to provide and several criteria based on specific local need. A maximum grant of $1.2 million is available under the programmed, subject to a maximum cost per place of $24,000. Applications will also be assessed based on the sustainability of a project.
Capital grants are also being made available to assist Child minders and Parent and Toddler Groups. Conditions and application criteria can be obtained from the City and County Childcare Committees, Pobal and the Office of the Minister for Children
