how will that work being mid through the tax year?

It only affects those not already registered in a Childcare scheme before April 6th 2011. Employees already in a scheme prior to this date will not be affected and will retain their current level of tax savings unless they leave the scheme or are no longer eligible to participate.

I'm pretty sure I lose it on the last of my kids in July 2013, so that's only 6 months without.

Maybe I should be extra careful with the dividends that year and save them for the following year.

Keep income a bit below the 40% limit to get £500 from the government.

Sounds like a plan.
