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 50 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 50 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.8 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.

Our older child will be entering reception after a great four years and a bit at Highfield. The staff are consistently interested and responsive to the children and there is a strong sense of community at the place which we have felt is a good place for our children to be at when we're at work. There are many activities to occupy their time and they're encouraged in their interests which have been taken note of. Staff are always friendly and keep the children in mind.
We have had an amazing experience at Highfield Nursery with all three of our children during the last 9 years. The staff are extremely professional, supportive, caring, open, honest and expert at delivering best-in-class childcare.

Highfield Day Nursery has been a pillar of support for our family over the last 7 years; successfully nurturing and teaching 5 of our children. Throughout the years, we have been able to form close and purposeful relationships with different members of staff, both old and new! Sadly, our youngest...
Thank you Highfield for all you have done and will continue to do - we are grateful!
We might accidentally turn up in the nursery car park, only for us to realise we should be somewhere else!

We love the feedback both verbally and on the app. My children have enjoyed going to nursery and have learnt so much whilst they are there.
The team have been very attentive given my child's food allergies and the chef has made a great variety of foods for him to have as well.
The garden space is brilliant for all age groups and has so much space and a huge range of toys for children to play!
Thank you Highfield!
My 2 year-olds started attending here in February 2024 and in the past 4 months, they have shown great improvement on the developmental delays that they have. The staff are very kind and welcoming and I feel reassured that my children are well looked after in a safe and nurturing environment.

Highfield is an amazing nursery and I really recommend them. I currently have 2 children here, one with special education needs and they enjoy every day they go. They send regular updates through their online app including what work they're doing towards targets, pictures and daily food...
I have regular catch-up meetings about my special education needs child to make sure we're all on the same page with his support and they're very keen to get any medical professionals involved such as physio to make sure they're helping him as best they can. They also do parent evenings for every child to discuss their progress and would be happy to arrange any ad hoc meetings if requested.
They have a thorough settling-in process for all new children that really helps put the parent's minds at ease during what can be a stressful time. It also makes the transition much easier for the children.
Both my children have thrived since joining Highfield and I'm grateful for all they do.
They really take your child’s needs and interests seriously. They will communicate with the parents daily on how the child has been doing not relying on online reports....

5-star nursery with care for their children! My son recently attended Highfield from when he was in the baby room up until ladybirds and then we had to move due to a change of job location. My son came on leaps and bounds here his bond with his key worker and all the amazing ladies he continues to speak about daily! Many many more. I was never worried about his care here and will miss this nursery so much.

We have always been impressed with the menus and food offered at the nursery and it was lovely to hear how the children continued to develop their feeding skills and clearly loved the food whilst in Ladybirds.

I have been impressed by the variety of activities that the staff offer to the kids in a number of areas (e.g. creative, learning, physical exercise) and their attention to each child by both daily reporting and period reporting through the app.

My child joined Highfield Day Nursery when she was 10 months old, the team were really supportive of me as I was having lots of anxiety returning to work, they gave me lots of calls of reassurance, and my child settled really well. The team in the baby room are really nurturing and she found close bonds with all members of staff and key workers, she is now 22 months and is thriving. Her key worker is honestly one of the best nursery workers she is so attentive to my daughter's needs, and creates creative activities based on my daughter's interests, some examples are they had a tea party as my daughter loves role-playing, making tea at home and jumping in puddles outside as she loves a particular character. They also really support her learning and her vocabulary has grown, she’s counting and loves books, and the whole team is fantastic. My daughter has formed bonds with the other kids. It’s such a lovely nursery.
I honestly can’t fault my experiences with Highfield. The staff are amazing, they go out their way to always ensure my children are happy, content and thriving!

I honestly can’t fault my experiences with Highfield. The staff are amazing, they go out their way to always ensure my children are happy, content and thriving! I have a child query SEN here and the nursery have been so supportive of this and have done referrals where needed and supported me along the way to getting a diagnosis. He is thriving and making improvements every day he is there! My other child, she is also thriving in every area. My children are happy and always come home smiling, making friendships and learning new things. The food is of amazing quality and fresh. It is a variety of meals. The management are supportive and helpful. I love the app as I receive regular updates, pictures and videos of all the activities they are doing and these only confirm to me how happy my children are at Highfield! Honestly in my opinion Highfield Day Nursery and its staff are faultless!

This is an amazing nursery. Since arriving, our son has developed so much and grown into a confident little boy. At the end of his pre-school year, he knew all the letters, could read small words and write his name. He made lots of friends and has always been very happy to attend nursery. We would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

Our child's pre-school staff were very positive and supportive and I would like to thank them for that.
I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery and preschool to any parents or legal guardians.

My daughter started at Highfield at age 1 in July 2020. My daughter settled into nursery very quickly and very easily and has been extremely happy there ever since. Room moves have been managed well and my daughter has always made those transitions really successfully. Day-to-day feedback is excellent both from the app and from the practitioners in the room at the end of each day. The nursery food is particularly excellent and I have always felt really happy with the wide diet that is provided at nursery. This nursery is particularly good at accommodating additional sessions if and when required. They keep the children very safe. They are really open to individualising children's learning requirements. My daughter has done particularly well with spelling out words/phonics and her reading journey with the support of the nursery from Bumblebees room onwards. Whatever the children express an interest in at home nursery will seek to build upon this.
Staff are really good with my son especially when he went through his...
Staff are really good with my son especially when he went through his crying stage. He now has a really good relationship with them.
Highfield is a really good nursery and I have no complaints with it. I am really impressed.
