„Evidence from the OECD net childcare cost indicator shows that costs for centre-based ECEC for young children can place an important burden on families’ budgets. While most OECD countries provide some form of support for parents to reduce the costs of ECEC, out-of-pocket costs remained substantial for families in several countries in 2023.“
