Wondering about child care expenses - my kids go to a gymnastics club and I work remotely while they are there. Am I able to claim any of that expense under child care?

There are a few things you can claim and you cannot claim:
You canclaim child care costspaid to day nursery schools and daycare centers, caregivers such as nannies, overnight boarding schools, and camps that provide lodging, day camps, and day sports schools.
Please Note: To be eligible, the primary purpose of the day camp or day sports school must be to provide child care.
You mightnot be eligible for the childcare expense deduction: If you are claiming fees paid to an educational institution, such as a boarding school or sports program, the cost of tuition is not deductible, but the lodging portion is.
