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 has been attending the Highfield since January and I am so happy with his time here so far. He has developed physically and emotionally. The staff are all delightful and give support. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Outstanding. Both my children have attended HDN and the level of care is second to none. My girls are thriving - keep up the good work.

It's lovely to be able to have the opportunity to come in and attend Mother's Day afternoon and see him playing and interacting with his friends and carers.

The nursery provision received has simply been outstanding and my son has been both enthusiastic and happy to attend this setting. I feel he is constantly challenged and thoroughly engaged in the various activities undertaken with his peers. I consider this has set him up very well for attending school in September and he will be 'school ready'. The team has worked together well in assuring this is the case and I am pleased with the service given by them in pre-school.
We could not be happier with Highfield Nursery. The team is fantastic and we are entirely confident that our child will be safe in their excellent care. Our son is a happy, chatty, funny little chap who at 22 months is hitting his milestones and more. Thank you, Highfield.

The nursery caters really well for children of all ages. Both my children went to Highfield Day Nursery and absolutely loved it. The staff, environment and management are child-friendly, welcoming and always cheerful. The children love the activities there and also the garden. There are only two...
1) The variety of food for breakfast is really poor. Only Rice Krispies and cornflakes. When the child goes every day it becomes boring- should have toast and other options.
2) Provide halal options, would make a great difference.
My child started in January and all members of the team have been wonderful in settling her and helping her transition into a new nursery. I am extremely pleased with all aspects of her care and my child is very happy here!

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 6 months old. Outstanding childcare with excellent facilities and a stimulating learning environment. Children are happy and healthy here with outdoor space being used to its full potential.

Wonderful nursery. Both my children have been through it and they have thrived. We have both been satisfied that they have been with caring staff and in a great learning environment. It speaks volumes that with our second child we still chose Highfield over the nursery attached to the school that my older daughter had moved to. The building has a lot of character and the kids loved the garden.
Staff are very attentive. My son's key worker is very good and really encourages my son in daily activities and learning. The variety of food provided is well balanced. My son looks forward to attending nursery so as long as he is happy I am happy.

My son has loved every minute and has developed into a well mannered, polite, fun-loving, little boy - part of which is a credit to the Highfield staff.
I can't thank you all enough and will be sad to no longer be part of the nursery life.
I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough to anyone looking for somewhere to invest in their children's upbringing.
My daughter has just moved up to preschool and is loving every minute. Her confidence continues to grow every day, as does her independence. I highly recommend Highfield.

Since our son started the nursery, I have noticed a lot of improvements: He started using the normal bathroom; his speech developed; he started making contacts and friends with other kids and teachers and he is learning to read and count.
