As she explained, for a couple without children, with an income of up to 35,000 euros, the state can cover up to 90% of the renovation, with a maximum subsidy of 36,000 euros.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div class=\"embed-responsive\">   <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>The program provides for expanded income criteria, with subsidies ranging from 75% to 95% for home renovations.<b>The limits increase with the number of children, as income is increased by \u20ac5,000 for each child<\/b>. So, for example, a couple with two children can reach an income of up to 45,000 euros to join the program.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, a special bonus is provided for families with three or more children, single-parent households, as well as families with a person with a disability, giving the opportunity to subsidize up to 95% of the total cost. <b>Although not all the details have been finalized, the direction is to follow a model similar to &#8220;My House 2&#8221;, avoiding the inclusion of too many new properties to avoid further price increases in the market.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The minister stressed that the program is a continuation of previous housing interventions, aiming to improve points that in the past made it difficult for households.<b>As she said, about 13.000 families have already acquired housing through &#8220;My House 2&#8221; and another 10,000 through &#8220;My House 1&#8221;, which shows the effectiveness of the relevant policies.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Referring to the &#8220;Neighbourhood Nannies&#8221; programme, Domna Michaelidou noted the strong response of the public, as within just two days of the opening of the platform, 30,000 visits and applications from prospective curators were recorded. <b>Those interested include both older women, such as grandmothers, and younger women who wish to work professionally in the childcare sector.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The programme aims to support families by enabling mothers to return to work, knowing that their child is being cared for by a person registered in an official register, with checked documents, a criminal record and certifications such as first aid training.<b><\/p>\n<p>The financial support amounts to \u20ac500 per month for each child aged between 2 months and 2.5 years,<\/b> filling a significant gap in available nursery places. At the same time, <b>the state also covers the nanny&#8217;s employment stamp, ensuring legal employment, insurance coverage and pension rights.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Special emphasis is also placed on the income criteria, which relate exclusively to the mother&#8217;s income. In particular, for a mother with one child the limit is up to 24,000 euros, while for two children it reaches 27,000 euros. <b>The father&#8217;s income is not taken into account, regardless of the amount.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Finally,<b>it was pointed out that the programme can cover up to three children per family,<\/b> reaching a total of 1,500 euros per month, making it both an important support for families and a worthwhile career opportunity for those wishing to work in childcare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister of Social Cohesion and Family Affairs, speaking to ERT, referred to two key government initiatives, the &#8220;I renovate&#8221; programme and the &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3305,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3304","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3304","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3304"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3304\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/3305"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3304"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3304"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/en.tomanifesto.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3304"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
