About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

Longford Littlebrook is a wonderful nursery. I had to find a nursery within a week due to the current one was closing and the nursery manager was so understanding and supportive and enrolled our child ASAP. We had a few weeks of settling and the nursery manager was understanding of our times and connections. The whole team are friendly and made me feel less anxious and kept reassuring me. I wish I sent my child here from the start. I feel so welcomed and can see the development in my child. Thank you Nursery Manager and team!

Our child is so happy here. We've used a different nursery before with an elder child and although we had a great experience, our experience here has been faultless. The carers are brilliant and work really hard, always with a smile on their face. Highly recommend!

Great nursery cannot fault it. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My children have become more confident and have learnt a lot from the nursery. Management are excellent, very flexible with allowing us to choose the dates and not have set dates. I trust the nursery with my children as the staff put my mind at ease with the great service the ladies offer. I would definitely recommend the nursery to anyone who asks me.

My son has been attending my favourite nursery - Longford Littlebrook Nursery for over a year now and he is so happy there. It feels like a second home to him. All of the staff are so nurturing and supportive and they provide him with so much care, attention and positivity. I have always found the key workers to be very communicative and the admin team are so efficient.
I would highly recommend Longford Littlebrook Nursery to anyone looking for a nursery in the area and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful and happy environment for my son.

My 3 year old started at the nursery in August last year. Since going to the nursery he is a different child. He has tons of confidence. Is exceeding in every aspect. He absolutely loves going there. He adores his carers and friends. He always complains that he won't get to play in the ball pool at weekends. The staff have been nothing but amazing. The ladies in the room supported with potty training etc. They get back to you super fast with any questions you may have. The manager has always bent over backwards, to help sort any requests I have had. You can tell they all genuinely love the children they work with.
I would 100% recommend the nursery

They all do fantastic jobs, from her primary carers down to the chef, my child loves them all and looks forward to going in. Large garden was a massive bonus as many nurseries don’t have much outdoor space but now especially in the warmer weather they get to play a lot outside and she loves it.
