💡 Explanation

Kontantstøtte (cash-for-care benefit) is money you can get from the government if your child is between 1 and 2 years old and does not have a full-time place in kindergarten.

You can receive kontantstøtte of around 7,500 NOK per month. If your child has a part-time place, you can get some kontantstøtte, but not the full amount.
You will not receive kontantstøtte if you have a kindergarten place and choose not to use it.

You must have lived in Norway for a certain time and be a member of the National Insurance Scheme to get kontantstøtte.

The aim is to give families freedom to choose how they care for young children; many use the money to stay home a bit longer before kindergarten.
