"Active Parent" Program: New Childcare Subsidies in Poland from October 2024

The act introduces three new benefits to support parents of children aged 12 to 35 months in balancing work and childcare. These new regulations replace the previous family care capital and nursery subsidies, providing significantly higher financial support.
Key points
"Active parents at work": PLN 1,500 per month (PLN 1,900 for children with disabilities) for working parents to cover childcare costs, such as hiring a nanny.
"Actively in nursery": Up to PLN 1,500 per month (PLN 1,900 for children with disabilities) to cover the costs of a nursery or kids' club.
"Actively at home": PLN 500 per month for parents who choose to personally care for their child at home.
Applications must be submitted exclusively online to the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) starting October 1, 2024.
Child safety: Parents hiring a nanny are required to verify that they are not listed in the Sex Offender Registry.
