I would confirm that with them, as far as I am aware you can claim for both children, as you are still classed as working, they don't make a distinction between who you were paying for before maternity leave, and after.
Some parents begin paying for childcare for the newborns, before they actually return to work for several reasons - to settle in the child, or to keep the place. And as long as they are "working" then I'm pretty sure that is perfectly allowed - but do ring them and check.All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume.0 -

Well yes that is exactly why I want to do it. I feel its a little unfair on my baby to go from being with me full time to being in nursery full time. Its always so confusing isn't it?! Thanks though0
