much will depend on your childcare costs and the number of children

Childcare support is part of Working Tax Credit. So you need to meet the basic conditions of WTC to get it, but that doesn't mean you need to be receiving any WTC. Your income may be too high to get any.

However including the childcare costs can mean you end up entitled to more child tax credit or some working tax credit.
