To be eligible, you must be working while your dependents receive care. Also, if you are married, your spouse must be:

Or disabled and unable to provide for his or her own care
Expenses eligible for reimbursement are those incurred to enable you to be gainfully employed, and include covered charges by:

Housekeepers, maids or cooks in your home to include their lodging in your home, as long as their services are performed for the benefit of your eligible dependent (s)
IRS Regulations limit the amount of reimbursement expense for dependent care to the lower of the annual earned income of you or your spouse. If your spouse is disabled or a full-time student, this limitation assumes that your spouse earns $250 per month (one dependent) or $500 per month (two or more dependents)

You cannot claim the tax credit for any dependent care costs reimbursed from the Dependent Care Reimbursement Account. The maximum amount that can be used for the tax credit is reduced by any amount you used from the Dependent Care Reimbursement Account.
