The pledge is just one of 300 policies unveiled by the party as part of its 'pre-manifesto' for next year's election.
The party has also said it aims to provide 15 hours of free childcare for every two-year-old in England – by using the savings from the marriage tax allowance.
It has said it wants to increase free pre-school education to all two-year-olds; this follows the expansion of free nursery care for three and four-year-olds in the country since 2010.
Commenting on the proposals, Business Minister, and Liberal Democrat, Jo Swinson said: "Helping families with the cost of childcare is part of the Liberal Democrat plan to build a stronger economy and a fairer society where there is opportunity for everyone to get on in life.
"Extending free early-years education to all two-year-olds will benefit children and reduce childcare costs for working parents.
"This is ultimately a fundamental difference in values. Liberal Democrats want to help all families with childcare support and nursery education right the way through from the end of parental leave to the start of school."
"The Tories are more bothered about helping only some couples through a married couples' tax break," she added.
