15 hours universal childcare for a three year old

[El3oss]

Hello,

I have mer with my three year old child's support worker today and she told me that he would be eligible for the 15 universal nursery childcare, I have asked her if this was considered public funds as both myself and my wife are on vusa and we cannot receive it, and she was not very sure. Can anyone here, confirm to me if it is?
I work full time while my wife a housewife.

Many thanks
