The war exhausts both the economy and demography. Ukraine loses people not only at the front, but also because of migration. Young families are increasingly deciding to give birth to children abroad - where they feel protected financially. In such a situation, any initiative regarding the social support of parents causes increased attention.
On July 24, 2025, the Verkhovna Rada registered bill No. 13532 “On Amending Certain Laws of Ukraine on Support for families with children and creating conditions that contribute to a combination of paternity with professional activities”. On August 19, he received a green light in the first reading, and the main parameters of the changes are already known.

Walking help.
For the first time in Ukrainian legislation, fixed assistance is laid for pregnant women who do not have insurance experience. Size - 7000 UAH/month per child throughout the entire pregnancy period.
Why is it important? Now women without insurance experience (official work or FLP activity with ERUs) are left without any help before the birth of a child.
How will it be? Help will be accrued from the moment of registration in a medical institution and will last before giving birth.
Advice. Start registering in the antenatal clinic as early as possible, so as not to lose months of payments. Collect medical certificates and passport documents in advance - after the law comes into force, they plan to submit applications through "
One -time payment at the birth of a child.
Instead of the current 41,280, 50,000 UAH will be paid. And not in parts for three years, but the full amount immediately after birth.
Why is it important? Today's prices for children's things, medical services, transport and household needs make current payments insignificant. A one -time payment allows parents to close large expenses in the first months: from a stroller and a crib to a baby car seat.
How will it be? The amount is credited to the account of one of the parents after registration of birth and applying for an application.
Advice. Open the bank account during pregnancy, so as not to delay receiving funds. Use money for large one -time purchases to avoid gradual “dissolution” of assistance in current expenses.

Monthly care for leaving up to a year.
The monthly payment of 7000 UAH is introduced to one of the parents, the guardian or relative who cares for the child up to one year.
Why is it important?
Today, parents receive only “maternity” from the employer or the FSS, and without official employment - nothing at all. This norm will help to survive the first year when the costs are maximum, and the ability to work is limited.
The final calculation mechanism and sources of financing will determine the Cabinet of Ministers, but the law fixes the amount as a basic.
Advice. Get ready to document the fact of leaving (certificates from the Housingire, medical institutions or notarial guardianship confirmations). For those who work remotely, this assistance will become an additional income, but it must be declared if other social payments are received.
The program "
Offer two options.
Compensation up to 8000 UAH/month for visiting a private or municipal kindergarten for children aged one to three years.
Preservation of the payment of ERUs for the father/mother looking after the child at home - to maintain insurance experience.
Why is it important? The problem of lack of places in kindergartens is especially acute in large cities and in front of the territories. The Easla program is an attempt to create a flexible choice between returning to work and continuing the care of the house.
Advice. If in your city queue in kindergarten, draw up compensation for a private institution so as not to lose working income. For those who do not plan to work for the next two years, the preservation of ERUs is more profitable - this will affect the future pension.

It will be possible to get a “Baby-Box” from the 36th week of pregnancy.
Why is it important? In many cases, childbirth occurs prematurely, and parents do not have time to prepare everything they need. The new norm will allow you to have a basic set even before the appearance of the child.
Advice. If you plan to give birth not at the place of registration, you will receive "
"
One -time payment of 5000 UAH for school supplies for all first -graders, regardless of family income.
Why is it important? Even a basic set of notebooks, a backpack, shape and shoes today cost from 4 to 7 thousand. UAH; For many families, this is a tangible load on the eve of the school year.
Advice. Plan purchases after receiving funds to avoid lending or debts in August-September. Save checks - perhaps in the future you will have to confirm the targeted use of payment.

Potential effect for families.
The bill No. 13532 offers an integrated approach - support begins before the birth of the child and continues until school. If you summarize all possible payments for one cycle “Pregnancy - First Class”, the family can get:.
Drummer aid: from 21,000 to 63,000 UAH (depending on the gestational age);
one -time payment at birth: 50,000 UAH;
up to a year care help: 84,000 UAH;
Compensation " ): 192 000 UAH in two years;
\;
"
Total more than 350,000 UAH of potential state support for several years per child.
Risks and warnings.
Budget load - tens of billions of hryvnias are needed to finance changes annually. Without a clear source of coating, payments delay are possible.
Inflation - one -time large payments can lose purchasing power in a year.
Administrative barriers - it is necessary to simplify the mechanisms of submitting applications and reduce the terms of consideration.
Bill No. 13532 - not just a set of social bonuses. However, behind each figure is not only good intentions, but also the question of who, when and for what money this will finance?

Political Timing: Social Payments before the election.
It is no secret that the Ukrainian political calendar in 2025 is rich: ahead of local elections and potential early parliamentary. Social initiatives in this period always work as an important element of the election strategy.
The adoption of the bill in the summer will allow the government and parliament to publicly demonstrate the concern for families, and the start of payments (in the case in the fall) - coincide with the active election campaign.
Risk: If financing is not found in full, payments can become fragmented, and confidence in the state is again in question.
Financial aspect: where to get tens of billions?
Preliminary assessments of the experts of the Ministry of Finance, which refer to the media, indicate the need for at least 85–100 billion UAH per year to fully implement the bill.
Sources of the coating that discuss:.
Increasing tax revenues by deteriorating the labor market;
Redistribution of funds from less priority programs;
International grants and targeted assistance (from experience 2022–2024).

But none of these options guarantees stability, especially in the conditions of war and the growth of defense costs.
Example from the past: the program " Permanent payments are a completely different story.
Social effect: expectations and reality.
Theoretically, comprehensive payments can:.
reduce the level of children's poverty;
a little, but inconsistent to stimulate the birth rate;
contribute to the return of young families from abroad.
In practice, without solving the concomitant problems - lack of places in kindergartens, low quality school infrastructure, expensive medical care - cash support can turn into holes patting.

The bill No. 13532 is an attempt for the first time in many years to create a single chain of support from pregnancy to the start of schooling. He takes into account the experience of the EU, but needs a realistic financial basis.
For the state, this is a challenge: whether it can guarantee not only the adoption of the law, but also its uninterrupted work? For families this is an opportunity, but also a test for the ability to plan finances.
