The plan is part of a government drive to reduce living costs, amid rising prices for fuel and food.
Current legal requirements in England stipulate there must be at least one member of staff for every three children in groups aged two years and under.Sources say Mr Johnson told his ministers to get on with lowering these limits at a cabinet meeting on Tuesday to address the cost of living.
A council tax rebate worth £150 and a cut to fuel duty were both announced by Mr Sunak earlier this year. "Whilst families are facing sky rocketing bills and soaring inflation, Boris Johnson's answer is another quiz night at Number 10," Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey said. Labour has made a similar proposal, saying its own "emergency budget" would include a cut to energy bills funded by a windfall tax on oil and gas companies.It comes as Labour has warned of a £10bn hike in annual petrol and diesel costs, with "soaring" prices putting the squeeze on household budgets.
