Mae’r ymchwil ar flwyddyn weithredol gynta’r cynnig yn dangos bod 80% o’r rhieni sy’n ennill yr incwm isaf ym mhob aelwyd, ac sy’n manteisio ar y cynnig, yn ennill llai na’r cyflog cyfartalog yng Nghymru. O’r rhieni a holwyd, dywedodd 88% fod ganddynt fwy o incwm gwario ar ôl defnyddio’r cynnig gofal plant, ac roedd 67% yn dweud bod y cynnig wedi rhoi mwy o gyfleoedd iddyn nhw gynyddu eu henillion yn  y dyfodol.

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ymrwymo i ddarparu 30 awr yr wythnos o addysg gynnar a gofal plant wedi’u hariannu gan y Llywodraeth i rieni cymwys sy’n gweithio ac sydd â phlant tair a phedair oed, a hynny am hyd at 48 wythnos y flwyddyn. 

Mae’r cynnig gofal plant yn cael ei gyflwyno fesul cam ledled Cymru ar hyn o bryd, ac ar gael mewn o leiaf rhai ardaloedd yn hanner y 22 o awdurdodau lleol y wlad. Bydd ar gael i Gymru gyfan erbyn 2020\.

Mae dros 3,300 o blant wedi elwa ar gynnig gofal plant arloesol Llywodraeth Cymru ym mlwyddyn gynta’r cynllun.

Cafodd Ymchwil Arad, mewn partneriaeth â NatCen Social Research, eu comisiynu gan Lywodraeth Cymru ym mis Awst 2017 i gynnal gwerthusiad annibynnol o flwyddyn gyntaf gweithredu cynnar y Cynnig Gofal Plant yng Nghymru.

Dengys yr arolwg bod:

* 60% o’r holl rieni a fanteisiodd ar y Cynnig (ac 80% o’r rhai sy’n ennill y cyflog lleiaf ar yr aelwyd) yn ennill cyfwerth neu lai nag enillion canolrifol y boblogaeth yng Nghymru;
* dywedodd 67% eu bod yn cael mwy o hyblygrwydd yn y mathau o waith maen nhw’n ei wneud a’u horiau gwaith hefyd; a dywedodd 60% eu bod wedi cael rhagor o gyfleoedd i hyfforddi;
* roedd defnyddio’r cynnig wedi annog 40% o’r rhieni a holwyd i fanteisio ar fwy o oriau gofal plant ffurfiol, a dywedodd 16% eu bod bellach yn defnyddio llai o ofal plant anffurfiol a mwy o ofal plant ffurfiol

  
Meddai Huw Irranca\-Davies, y Gweinidog dros Blant:
> “Mae’n wych gweld pa mor dda mae ein cynnig gofal plant arloesol yn cael ei dderbyn gan deuluoedd ar hyd a lled Cymru.
> 
> “Rwy’n arbennig o falch bod y cynnig o fudd i deuluoedd incwm isel, gan roi mwy o arian yn eu pocedi a’u caniatáu i dderbyn mwy o waith neu hyfforddiant.
> 
> “Mae hynny nid yn unig yn dda i economi Cymru, ond hefyd yn lleihau’r straen ar incwm teuluoedd.”

The research on the offer’s first year of operation shows 80% of the lowest earning parents in each household accessing the offer earn less than the average salary in Wales. 88% of surveyed parents reported having more disposable income as a result of accessing the offer, and 67% reported the offer gave them more opportunities to increase their future earnings.


The Welsh Government is committed to providing 30 hours a week of government\-funded early education and childcare for working parents of 3 and 4 year olds, for up to 48 weeks of the year. 


The childcare offer is currently being roll\-out across Wales, and is available in at least some areas in half of Wales’ 22 local authorities. It will be available across the country by 2020\.


More than 3,300 children have benefited from the Welsh Government’s ground\-breaking childcare offer during its first year.


Arad Research, in partnership with NatCen Social Research, was commissioned by the Welsh Government in August 2017 to undertake an independent evaluation of the first year of early implementation of the Childcare Offer in Wales.


The research shows:


 


* 60% of all parents accessing the Offer (and 80% of the lowest earners in households) accessing the Offer earned the equivalent or less than the median population earnings in Wales;
* 67% reported having more flexibility in the types of jobs they do and the hours they work; and 60% reported having more opportunities for training;
* Access to the offer had encouraged 40% of parents surveyed to access more hours of formal childcare, and 16% of parents say they now use less informal childcare in favour of more formal childcare


Minister for Children, Huw Irranca\-Davies said:


 



> “It’s great to see how well our ground\-breaking childcare offer is being received among families right across Wales. 
> 
> 
> “I’m particularly pleased the offer is benefiting low income families, putting more money back into their pockets and allowing them to take up more work or training. 
> 
> 
> “That’s not only good for the Welsh economy, but it’s also reducing strain on family incomes.”
