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.

A superb family run nursery, with superb staff. I would recommend ABC to anyone, my daughter has excelled at this nursery and I’m sad she has to leave for school.

Thanking you for taking the time to give us a review, I'm so glad you have enjoyed your time with us. Go and shine at big school now.

I'm so pleased with my son's time at ABC nursery so far! His social skills have come on leaps and bounds, along with all the experiences he has gained alongside his peers which is difficult to offer at home. I was very nervous leaving my son at 8 months old in the care of another but the nursery were absolutely wonderful in offering a settling in period before leaving him for a full day. The staff obviously care so much for the children and it is a lovely environment for the children too.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. settling in sessions are very important and often the children are fine but its very important that parents have that time to build up that trust and friendship with the staff.

What a fantastic nursery A B C really is! My son has attended for over a year now and has come on leaps and bounds. My son really struggled with his speech when he first started, the staff have worked tirelessly with him to improve his speech and other things, and now he has a fantastic vocabulary and is so much more confident. The staff are all lovely and welcoming, the whole place has a family feel to it and is a lovely safe and clean place for your child to grow up in. A B C is by far the best nursery around. If you’re looking at sending your child to nursery then definitely give the manager and the ladies at A B C a thought.
Thank you for such a lovely review. We love to see the children develop, grow in confidence and be happy in their surroundings.
I have nothing but praise for the A B C Nursery. The staff are not only friendly and polite but very welcoming to new parents.

I have nothing but praise for the A B C Nursery. The staff are not only friendly and polite but very welcoming to new parents. It can be daunting leaving your child at such a young age (mine was nine months old) but they made us feel very comfortable and secure. The activities that the children do are lovely, there are music lessons on a Monday that my son loves, along with lots of painting and creative activities. The outside garden area has recently been done out and the kids go out in it every day. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone.
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We aim to put parents at ease as it's a bigger deal for you than it is for the little ones really. Glad to hear you are happy with everything.

My son has been in the nursery for a year, starting as a 2-year old. He had difficulty settling in but the ladies helped him considerably to feel welcome and safe. Eventually, he started loving it there and during the summer break holidays, he was asking several times when he could come back. Now as a 3-year-old he enjoys it even more, although management could be more flexible with the hours offered. I do not like the system of 2.5 days a week. When I asked if this can be maintained, I was given an answer that yes but only if I want my 3-year-old to be staying with 2-year-olds :( not really a lot of choice. My second concern is TV and iPads. Are they really necessary for such small children? They have enough TV at home, I believe.
In spite of those two concerns, the staff is caring, kind and really dedicated. I always felt well-informed and most of all my son loves it. I would definitely recommend it to my friends.
Thank you for your review, due to the high demand for the three-year-old spaces for the 2017/18 and the new 30-hour funding coming into place, we had no choice but to offer the sessions over 2.5 days.

Thank you for your review, due to the high demand for the three-year-old spaces for the 2017/18 and the new 30-hour funding coming into place, we had no choice but to offer the sessions over 2.5 days. We like to offer flexible places but this wasn't possible for the schoolroom intake this year as we had so many existing parents wanting places for the new term. This was the only way I could accommodate everyone. Concerning the iPads/tv, these are monitored and educational apps are purchased for the children to extend their learning.
I definitely recommend A B C Day Nursery, I've had an older child and 8-month-old who is now 2, attend and both thrived in the setting.

The garden has just had a refresh and is now an all year round space which is perfect.
Their daddy also attended the nursery 30 years ago and it's still run by the same family, proof that they're doing something very right.
Thank you for your lovely comments, it's lovely having the second generation of the family attending.
Highly recommend this day care!

Two of my children attended this nursery when we moved to Bearwood. All of the staff were very knowledgeable and friendly and made great connections with the children and their older sibling. They really took the time to treat each child as an individual. Having used other nurseries previously I can definitely say A B C are the best by a mile.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review, glad you was pleased with our service. You know where we are when you need us next ??
I love this nursery and my son loves this nursery even though we have moved away from the area he still attends and won't be moving anytime soon! He is only 2 1/2 and his speech is amazing and has made so many good friends with the other children and staff I highly recommend this nursery.

A B C Day Nursery is a nursery I have and will continue to recommend. My first daughter went from 9 months and is now 6 years old and my second daughter has just started and I wouldn't have sent her anywhere else. The staff are all warm and friendly, they go out of their way to understand your child as an individual and support them throughout their time at nursery. The nursery is always introducing innovative play and educational sessions with babies and children. My daughter was confident, sociable and also learnt a lot at nursery and talks positively of her time there now. My baby daughter has settled in well and already seems to be enjoying her time there too.
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review, we look forward to making more memories over the years with your little one.
My daughter has only attended the nursery for a short while, but the whole family has been made to feel so welcome. The staff are all really professional and have really helped and guided us with her settling in sessions. So happy with our choice to send her there.

Amazing nursery my son has been going since September this year and he's getting on so well there. Staff are very good especially at comforting him when he first started because he kept getting upset after me. I was worried about his speaking and communication when he started, however, feel he has come on leaps and bounds since starting there. Lovely nursery and staff!
The tears soon stop with a bit of fun and distraction. It's lovely to see him growing in confidence and chatting more.

It has given her the perfect start to her upcoming Pre School in Hampshire. I wish we weren't moving, otherwise she would have happily stayed at ABC :-)
