Two years of “babciowe”: the three Aktywny Rodzic benefits
An event involving the prime minister is planned for 2 October. Here is where families can check the Aktywny Rodzic rules.
According to TVP Info’s morning preview, Prime Minister Donald Tusk is due to attend an event today marking the second anniversary of “babciowe”. It is an opportunity to revisit the Aktywny Rodzic programme.
Today’s planned event
The preview concerns an event on 2 October 2026. It does not announce an increase in benefits or an additional payment.
Three forms of support
ZUS identifies three benefits: support for working parents, nursery care and care at home. Only one can be received for the same child and month; the choice depends on meeting the relevant conditions.
Check your circumstances with ZUS
Before applying or changing an application, consult the official ZUS guide for the relevant benefit. Have details of the child’s age, care arrangements and parents’ employment circumstances ready. The popular name “babciowe” should not replace checking which specific form of support fits the case.
