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 7.5 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.

Wonderful nursery! All the staff are so friendly and nice. My son did not take much time to adjust and loves going to nursery. They handled the situation during the pandemic very well by having lots of processes in place so that all kids are safe. The nursery is very spacious inside and out. Lots of activities for kids to do in the garden as well. Very happy with the nursery.

My son has been at Jack in the Box Nursery for one year and he loves going in every morning. The staff are very friendly and have a great rapport with the children. Would say this is one of the best nursery in Slough. All of the staff are so nurturing, 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 definitely recommend Jack in the Box Nursery to anyone considering a nursery in the area.
The management staff are always very helpful, accommodating and quick to respond to and queries.. My son loves the classroom staff and always comes home busting to tell me about the exciting things he has been up to.

Both my children have been to Jack in the Box Nursery and I am extremely happy about staff, the care provided, hygiene and food. My daughter always looks forward to attend the nursery. Thanks to all the staff, it's a great feeling to see your children return home happy and excited.

My four year old has been going here for over two years and will be ready for school this September. She loves her nursery, teachers and the friends she has made there. The communication from the nursery is very prompt, the staff are very friendly, courteous and have the care of my daughter at their heart. Of course no nursery is perfect and I could not pick on things but I have had no serious concerns that I have had to bring up with the nursery since my daughter has joined.
I visited many nurseries before Jack in the Box Nursery but this nursery felt different as soon as I walked through the doors for the tour. It felt such a warm, homely and nurturing environment.

I visited many nurseries before Jack in the Box Nursery but this nursery felt different as soon as I walked through the doors for the tour. It felt such a warm, homely and nurturing environment. My child has been attending for eighteen months now and she loves it. Everyday she comes out telling me all of the exciting things she has done during the day. The staff are all warm, caring and have genuine affection for the children. There is plenty of outside space for the children to do activities and the inside is clean and spacious.

My son has been attending Jack in the Box Nursery since he was a baby and is now coming up to going onto school. The nursery has given him the best start in life. The nursery management is truly passionate about early years development and this passion translates into a really well run and committed service that cares for each and every child.

We sent both of our children to Jack in the Box from being babies right up to going to school. What stands out to me about this nursery is the staff - every single one of them seems to genuinely care for the children and love to tell you what they have been doing with their day and how they are getting on. You are greeted with a smile and everybody says hello and knows your child's name and temperament. Both of my kids have always skipped into nursery in the morning and only get upset when it is time to come home! The garden is a lovely resource and the activities on offer really aid their development. I looked around a lot of nurseries and you will find others with more modern facilities (and much higher fees!) but I did not see any that matched the happy atmosphere of Jack in the Box. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery to all of my friends.

It took my child a while to settle in but the nursery were and have been so accommodating. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and they greet us every morning and afternoon with a smile. They have accommodated my child’s nutritional needs without any issue. I feel the nursery have worked hard to ensure safety during the pandemic without compromising on the child's experience. My child is happy at nursery and loves to play outside in the garden area (which is big with lots of outdoor toys/activities for the children to play with/do). I have found that his confidence has grown. It’s a lovely atmosphere and I would recommend the nursery to all.
My daughter started to attend this nursery a few months ago and it already made a huge difference. She settled really well and very fast and that is only because the staff is so friendly and caring. She started to talk here, she learned to play nicely with others and to be part of activities. We...
My daughter started to attend this nursery a few months ago and it already made a huge difference. She settled really well and very fast and that is only because the staff is so friendly and caring. She started to talk here, she learned to play nicely with others and to be part of activities. We get daily reports of how she's been, and monthly reviews which helps us to keep a track of her growth and learning. We wholeheartedly recommend it!
I have sent 2 of my children here. and I won't ever wish to send them anywhere else. Loving staff, professional and my kids have never had a bad day there, ever. 10 out of 10 guys. Thanks for giving our kids a wonderful environment to grow in.

My daughter settled in really well, and I was impressed with the number of settling in sessions she was allocated prior to starting. She has been able to build a really strong relationship with her key worker, and will often excitedly exclaim her name on the way in, in the morning. She absolutely loves attending the nursery, and it's nice to see her so excited about going. The team have continued to offer brilliant care throughout the pandemic, and I am aware that they have worked hard to ensure safety without compromising on the child's experience. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and happy to answer any queries.
My son attends the Piglets room and he absolutely loves it there. They do a lot of activities - arts and crafts, games and songs. The outdoor area is spacious. The staff are friendly and have a really good relationship with the kids. Really great start for his learning journey.

My child has been attending this nursery for almost 4 months now. I knew he was going to have a hard time settling in given he had been home for months due to Covid situation, but the staff is so loving and warm that I am not surprised that he has a great time at the nursery now. The staff is also very good with remembering the little things that I tell them about my child. I am also very pleased with the artwork I get to see every now and then. Overall - very happy!
My little boy progressed a lot here. He enjoys there and happy and that's what matters. The settling in sessions were so good. Staff is friendly and understanding.

The nursery is super spacious and hygiene is very well maintained. The staff are very friendly with the parents and kids; they are highly dedicated to their duty.

The activities the kids have at the nursery are very interesting and indeed builds a zeal in them to be more creative and healthy. The food menu is planned absolutely perfect as per the nutritional requirements for kids. The kid's distribution among the various rooms as per the age and the activities planned for them are apt. The communication and response from the management is super prompt. My kid chants for his nursery and the names of his key persons while in his sleep..!! He loves his nursery to that extent.
Thank you, Jack in the Box.
My son is always...
My son is always excited when it’s his days to attend, referring to the workers by name. We are very happy with how he has progressed!
