Tax Credits? Help please.

To those who need childcare for 1 child but would need childcare for older ones during half term etc, did you get extra tax credits to cover the extra children?

I have one in childcare FT, and one before and after school and over hols. I have calculated the yearly figure then divided by 12 then 4 to give the weekly figure and thats the one I have given to hmrc. Just averaging it out over the year.
