HIDDEN - Separation and child support

Need help and support after separating from your partner?

Child Maintenance Options provides impartial information and support to help separated parents make decisions about their child maintenance arrangements, including:

  • access to a larger range of organisations that provide local support
  • answers to common questions around child maintenance
  • tools and leaflets to help you make your own arrangements, including a child maintenance calculator and setting up a family-based arrangement

The government has brought together all the current childcare provisions in one place to help parents and carers understand how their offers can support them in their working lives.
