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.

I cannot praise the nursery enough. I truly feel that the caterpillar room is genuinely interested in my son and his development. The team are caring and polite, and my son gets excited as he walks into the room. His confidence has flourished, and he is doing so well with his learning, and this is completely down to the fantastic care and support given by the staff. I could not recommend this nursery enough.

Sending a six-month-old to a daycare nursery is a parent's biggest worry, but having my son registered at Nene Valley Day Nursery was the best decision. The staff made all possible efforts to get him adjusted to the new environment and help him settle. He is very well looked after. He has flourished in terms of learning and development. One member of staff has been his primary carer, and I must say my son loves her absolutely. She focuses on his day-to-day development and learning and coordinates with us on areas of development. The entire staff are excellent and goes beyond and above to make this place a second home for all children.
My daughter loves coming to the nursery. She enjoys the atmosphere here. She is engaged in activities, which introduced her to making skills and overall well-being. I am happy that we took the decision to send her to Nene Valley Day Nursery.

My daughter has been going to Nene Valley for two years. The staff all know her by name and are extremely friendly. She loves the nursery and has made great friends here. Was highly recommended by a friends and am so impressed my son is starting soon.

Both of my boys have attended nursery at Nene Valley since being small. The youngest unexpectedly was diagnosed with some health issues just after starting nursery, but the staff at Nene Valley have been very willing to learn about his health needs and very flexible with providing care for him. They have always shown an interest in how he is doing medically, which is nice. They are also very receptive to both my boys learning needs and really provide an educational environment tailored to them, allowing them to flourish.
My little one absolutely loves coming to the nursery. She settled in earlier than we expected and is doing well. The practitioners are very helpful and update daily progress and overall development.

When my first son started nursery, I was worried as he was never a "level back" baby who often struggled with sleep and separation from me. I needn't have worried! Our experience at Nene Valley has been wonderful, and we will miss everyone as he moves on to school as a confident little boy. My second son has recently started in the baby room, and it has been another great experience. Thank you all.
Love the nursery. My daughter has been attending here for just over a year and developed fantastically. Nothing is too much to ask, and her key person is absolutely amazing. Perfect choice and I feel very connected with what the little one is doing through the day.

My experience with the nursery so far has been a positive one. I have felt that my child's learning and development are taken seriously, and I loved the frequent updates. It has been great knowing my child is in a safe and enjoyable environment where she is able to thrive. Her sibling will most definitely be coming here too.
Our son enjoys the outdoor area immensely, especially the outdoor kitchen and balance bikes. He has bonded well with new friends and always leaves full of beans and excitedly tells us about his day.

When my child started, she was shy and apprehensive, but the staff were quick and enthusiastic when welcoming her, and she was quick to feel confident. They supported her and introduced her to new friends. The setting is always very welcoming, and she really appreciates all the fantastic resources.

I'm really happy with the care my daughter is receiving. She is very happy when I drop her off and pick her up. Every member of staff is extremely friendly and treats every child individually. I can't fault the place.

Since starting nursery, we have noticed our child has increased in his confidence, his vocabulary and his independence. He has developed a lovely relationship with his key worker, which has helped him settle. All the staff are very welcoming and professional. Thank you to the manager and the team.

The caterpillar room is very inviting. The room rotates its toys and sensory every couple of months, keeping it interesting for the babies. Staff are very friendly/helpful and cater well for food allergies - great menus.
