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.

My son started at Highfield Day Nursery (Birmingham) when he was only three months old and he has adjusted really well. One member of staff is great with him and we truly appreciate her! The app is great to keep updated on how our little one is developing. I would totally recommend!

My son has been attending this nursery for over two years and he absolutely loves it! Everyday after I pick him up he can’t stop talking about how much he played and learned at nursery and how much fun he had with his friends and teachers. Can’t recommend enough!

The manager has been so supportive with any queries or questions we have and the staff are all lovely. They send photographs/comments of her activities and what she has eaten.
It is a very good nursery and I would definitely recommend it.

He stopped going over lockdown but when he started back in May they were again so welcoming and supportive as he settled back in. The staff have all taken time to get to know my son and he loves the time he spends at nursery.
I am impressed with the high quality of activities, assessment, care and organisation of the nursery. Their management throughout Covid has also been excellent and they have kept parents informed of changes to procedure all the way through.
We were recommended Highfield by friends whose children attended there. It was a perfect recommendation and we would definitely recommend to others.
The staff are really helpful, welcoming and friendly and very approachable if you have any concerns. The app is used to be best of ability always updating me on key milestones.

Highfield Day Nursery are extremely professional, informative and both my children have been very happy here over the last 5 years, the staff are all so friendly and warm and give the kids exactly what they need. The meals there are fantastic, all cooked on-site by the wonderful chef. Management answer you back straight away with any concern or question you might have. Most of the staff have been there for years and that goes to the fantastic family feeling there is there.

My daughter has attended Highfield since August 2017. I highly recommend this nursery, as the staff and management are consistently professional, friendly and are always willing to exceed expectations. The level of communication is excellent, I have always been kept up to date with daily activities and promptly informed about anything necessary. In particular, the outdoor space which they have is great and the play areas which they created indoors is impressive. Something that was particularly important to me when choosing a nursery was the meals that they provide. As my family do not eat meat, it was important that my daughter ate healthy and balanced meals and I liked that they have a full-time cook who produces all of their meals onsite and have varied menus.
Our boy has been attending Highfield Day Nursery since January 2020 and he's come on so much in that time. The staff are really helpful and friendly too. We've recently moved out of the city centre but we know it's the right decision to keep him at Highfield Day Nursery for his progress and...
Our boy has been attending Highfield Day Nursery since January 2020 and he's come on so much in that time. The staff are really helpful and friendly too. We've recently moved out of the city centre but we know it's the right decision to keep him at Highfield Day Nursery for his progress and development. He's recently moved up to one of the Ladybird rooms and he's settled into the new room really well.

My son has attended Highfield for the last 3 years (he is about to turn 4 and will start to attend school). This nursery has been fantastic for him - supporting all the major milestones brilliantly (walking, weaning, toileting, starting to read etc) with kindness and structure. You get the impression that staff are treated well and so you tend to get staff who have stay giving the children the consistency they crave at that age. My son loves the staff here and is known by everyone from the guy who makes all of the nutritious and delicious food to the nursery manager. We will both miss Highfield immensely. Thank you all.

My daughter has been attending Highfield Day Nursery since she was seven months and still present. I must say that this nursery is extremely professional in all that they set out to do and my daughter has been nothing but happy and comfortable getting drop off and picked up. She’s always speaking of the nursery practitioners and also her friends so boldly and confidently with happiness. All the staff are very welcoming and caring, hence why I feel so comfortable leaving my child at the nursery because I know that she’s safe and happy and because I am happy with the staff that are taking well care of her in my absence. My daughter is now three years of age and will be four very soon and we’ll be staring reception in September. She’s built so much confidence and high self-esteem within herself and has developed such courage in caring for others and also herself. I would recommend this nursery to anyone if not all.

Highfield Day Nursery is a beautiful setting with amazing outdoor space for children to thrive and keep active. The staff are all so friendly and helpful, which helped my daughter settle in very quickly. My daughter has taken part in some fantastic learning opportunities that have helped her to become a confident learner. I love the fact that my daughter is welcomed with a warm smile by each and every team member who greets her and myself on arrival, which immediately puts my mind at rest as a parent when leaving my child in their care. This nursery provides a professional service, and all the children look happy and content when I drop off and pick up my daughter. Highly recommended as I absolutely love this nursery setting in all aspects, it is amazing!
Brilliant nursery, where our son has come on in leaps and bounds. Warm and friendly staff who create a safe and homely atmosphere for the children. Daily updates via the app are really valuable. Couldn’t ask for anything more from a nursery.

They have lots of different activities set for the day and my daughter really enjoys them.
My daughter was very shy when she joined nursery but has now become very confident, thanks to the lovely nursery staff.
I would highly recommend Highfield Day Nursery; it's the best nursery in the area.

Highfield Day Nursery staff are excellent and trained to high standards. They make all efforts to understand the child and the parents, and my daughters have really good relationships with all staff members. They have been fantastic during the COVID-19 crisis, and as a key worker, I have been able to rely on them throughout when many other nurseries had closed their doors. They put very good measures in place in terms of social distancing and cleanliness. I have felt reassured sending my children throughout a very difficult period. Nursery communication is excellent both via the app, as well as newsletters with lots of information and support flowing through for children who were attending as well as the ones who were not during the crisis. They always have interesting activities, and my children are developing all skills comfortably and seamlessly. I would highly recommend Highfield.
Excellent nursery. Very welcoming. We joined in September 2019, having recently moved to the area and making the mistake of joining a nearby nursery that had a great sell, but poor delivery. The manager is obviously incredibly experienced and understanding of individual families' needs, while...
The support to us as keyworkers during the first Covid-19 lockdown has been amazing. The team have accommodated our work schedules, variable pickup/dropoff times and ensured our children continue to develop and excel.
We have no hesitation in recommending this nursery.
My daughter loves Highfield. Freshly prepared healthy food, caring staff that go above and beyond for the children. We are kept in the loop of her developments, and we are most impressed with the planning towards her learning in the Ladybird room.

The staff are lovely, caring, professional and happy to help with any enquiries. My little girl has come on leaps and bounds since attending this nursery and she thoroughly enjoys her time there; especially the messy play and sensory room.
I have every bit of trust and faith in the staff there that look after our little girl! Fab place!

Both our daughters aged three and two started attending Highfield Day Nursery since their usual nursery closed due to the lockdown. Being keyworkers, my wife and I were desperate for childcare but at the same time were very keen not to compromise on quality. We are very pleased to have found Highfield Day Nursery as they have been excellent in this regard. Our daughters settled in very well right from day one and we have found every single staff member very welcoming and friendly. In the short time that our daughters have been there, we have seen an improvement in their confidence. We have particularly enjoyed their app which allows us to view our daughters' progress throughout the day as well as key areas of development. Our daughters also enjoy spending time in their huge outdoor space. Our enquiries have been met with professionalism at all times. We have been really happy with our choice of nursery so far and now very keen to continue our daughters' education in Highfield.
Whilst it is a big nursery, the place...
Whilst it is a big nursery, the place is extremely well organised and well run. The kids still get a very personal experience from their key workers. They get individual attention and their needs are each met. We also get feedback on how their day has been whenever we pick up the girls. The manager is wonderful and very involved in the day to day running of the nursery. She knows all the kids' names (and they must have over 50 children) which is telling as to how passionate she is. We have regular formal parents evenings where we discuss the progress of our girls. Both of our girls are very happy. My elder daughter's vocabulary and speech has improved dramatically since being there. I would recommend this nursery without any reservation.
