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.

The outside area is fantastic and do lots of different activities which my son has loved. The food is excellent, lots of variety and healthy. He has loved his time here and will be sad to leave, but it's time for big school.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We will pass this on to the team at Cherubs South Normanton.
My son has been at Cherubs from 12 months old and he is now leaving for school. He has loved his time there and is always excited to go in the morning. The staff are all fantastic and any issue raised has always been dealt with quickly.

Amazing provider, they look after my daughter unbelievably well and she has the best bond with all staff but in particular her key worker. She’s happy to go, they understand her and both her personal and medical needs. It means when I leave her at nursery I know she’s well looked after and do not have to worry. We appreciate them so much but a particular shout out to one staff member in particular, you are amazing!

The food is good. My child always eats well there.
When clothing inevitably goes missing it eventually turns up a few weeks later.
Management behind the scenes is always helpful, particularly when it comes to explaining funding changes.

Our experience of Cherubs South Normanton has been extremely positive from day one, we feel it has given our daughter the best possible start to her early education. The facilities inside and out are outstanding, we couldn’t recommend this nursery more highly.

Our daughter started at Cherubs South Normanton in October and has been supported through the settling period with kindness and encouragement from all the staff. As parents, we have been kept up to date with our child's well-being and how she has been settling in at the nursery. She is now enjoying her days at nursery, will happily go to members of the team and wave bye to me in the morning. Each evening we get sent a detailed account of her day which usually contains photos of her enjoying the various activities that have been set up. Overall, we have had a very good experience with the nursery and the team and would highly recommend to anyone considering.

My son enjoys his Tuesdays at nursery and I have found all the staff to be professional and caring. He gets to experience lots of sensory play. The staff have been supportive of him and understanding of his needs.

My daughter loves attending nursery. They provide so many crafting and investigation activities and promote outdoor learning. They are also very caring and loving towards my daughter and have previously catered for her needs regarding her sensitive skin. They offer a range of activities that cater for the development needs curriculum and build on children’s interests. Communication is outstanding and I always feel comfortable approaching any staff member with any queries.

Great nursery, very supportive of my child and myself, gave me great tips as I am first time mum especially in toddler stages and developments. It's great that he has a key worker for any 1 to 1 he needs.

Cherubs is a fantastic nursery who clearly care tremendously about the children. My son comes home from each day he’s spent at nursery so happy. He’s clearly very comfortable with the nursery, as we never have tears when we drop him off either. He eats really well, they feed him amazing foods which are well balanced and sound delicious! He plays well, with a variety of different themes and activities each day and photos from his days at nursery are wonderful to get on his diary entries. It’s clear there is plenty to do at Cherubs South Normanton. The staff are fantastic, so friendly and caring for the children. I would highly recommend this nursery and have done to a friend, who will be soon sending her son to Cherubs too.

My little girl started at the beginning of September and I am amazed at the positive change already. This is our third nursery we have tried and I can honestly say she has never looked so content at a nursery setting. Her day is always updated each afternoon on the app, so I can see everything she...
Her confidence has grown vastly over the past three weeks, which makes me look forward to seeing how this develops over the next few years. Drop offs began with lots of tears and apprehension to leave my side, however after the third week she happily walks in with a big smile on her face. The settling in period for me is what stood out, the staff members promised to ring me after fifteen minutes on her first couple of days and they always rang before this time to ensure me that my little girl was okay. Thank you so much, it is always a pleasure bringing my child.

My child is well cared for and continues to thrive with the aid of the amazing staff at Cherubs. I have no doubt their needs are met, they have fun and enjoy playtime, whilst also having space for learning. The only thing to consider for improvements would be the content of the diaries, sometimes these can be minimal, missing naps, food or information about potty training.

We love sending our little boy to Cherubs. The activities he gets to do are so varied and have really helped his development. We love that Cherubs teaches makaton too. The staff are all wonderful and go above and beyond supporting us where needed and marking special occasions. The app used to track...
My son loves nursery and all the things he gets to do, visits out and learning experiences at nursery. The garden is a fantastic space for his little legs to blow off some steam too! Would highly recommend.

Hello, I'm Laura - Area Manager for Cherubs South Normanton. I have been part of Cherubs Nurseries since 2007 and am incredibly fortunate to work across multiple Cherubs Nurseries during my career so far. Doing this has allowed me to really understand the expectations and the need to ensure we provide high-quality childcare every day. We take our role in the early years seriously and are always keen to go above and beyond where we can.
I am incredibly passionate about giving all children the very best start. In addition to my Area Manager role, I am the Group Safeguarding and SEND Lead. This means I work with all the nurseries to ensure we provide tailored care to those with additional needs.
