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 manager and staff were really good at allaying my anxieties at the start by allowing me to visit an extra time and letting me stay in the family room on the settling-in session. The staff are well informed, polite, thorough, caring, communicate well and have obviously bonded well with our daughter. We feel very comfortable with the care provided.

On the days she has nursery, she doesn't hesitate to get out of bed and get ready. She looks forward to it and is so eager to go learn and play and see her friends and key workers in the preschool room. You can tell from the staff how cared for and loved all the children are. I could not imagine entrusting my children with anyone else.
The preschool room is so so beautiful and clean. No rooms in the nursery feel cluttered and/or dirty.
The location of the nursery is ideal and just perfectly laid out. I'm not anxious at all about my child playing outside and being exposed to pollution unlike other nurseries and where they reside.
I must admit that I am very jealous of my child! I wish I went to this nursery! The facilities, education, care and nutrition she is receiving exceeds everything a parent could possibly want for a child to excel and have a head start in life.

I had two children come to the nursery, and they have only been going for a few months, but both have settled in well and enjoy their days at the nursery. Staff are always friendly and give you a full handover face-to-face or on the app.

Our daughter loves coming to nursery. She's very happy to see all the ladies that care for her each day. Everyone is so caring and friendly, and nothing is too much trouble. They appreciate your precious child means everything to you and treat them as so.

The staff are really friendly, and my child loves nursery. The staff seem to really care about her. The app is really helpful to track how much she has slept and eaten. We really like the nursery and would recommend it to a friend.

Leaving your children to work is such a heartwrenching decision but the anguish of this is made so much easier knowing that I am leaving them to be cared for by the staff at Cherubs Longdale. I honestly can’t put into words how amazingly caring they all are and I feel as though I am leaving them with extended family as opposed to just another child care provider. I trust the staff implicitly and have firsthand experience of how vigilant they are in noticing any changes in both my children which they alert me to immediately. Both my children settled so quickly which again is testimony to how brilliant the staff are at tuning in to your child’s needs and finding a way to make them feel comfortable and happy. My eldest daughter was diagnosed as having additional needs in 2019 and once again, the staff not only supported me but have also been willing to do whatever it takes to promote her development. I cannot thank everyone at Cherubs Longdale enough.
Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. We will pass this on to the team. We hope that you and your family are well and are staying safe.
I cannot praise the nursery staff highly enough. My son is currently attending and my daughter attended previously. The staff are extremely kind and caring and go above and beyond for the children. Although my son is under 18 months he does some amazing activities at the nursery and you can see...
I cannot praise the nursery staff highly enough. My son is currently attending and my daughter attended previously. The staff are extremely kind and caring and go above and beyond for the children. Although my son is under 18 months he does some amazing activities at the nursery and you can see from the photographs they provide how much fun he is having. I would highly recommend.

Hello, I'm Laura - Area Manager for Cherubs South Longdale. 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.

"Hello, I'm Rachel - Head of Nursery at Cherubs Longdale. I decided to pursue a career in childcare as I grew up with lots of siblings and family friends. As I grew older, I did lots of babysitting, which inspired me to work in childcare. I have always enjoyed working with children and watching them grow and develop.
I have been in childcare for a while now, and with Cherubs Nurseries since 2014. I have gained a huge insight into childcare by being fortunate to work at a few Cherubs settings, including Cherubs Sutton in Ashfield and Cherubs South Normanton. On a day-to-day basis, I ensure Cherubs Longdale is effectively run by ensuring we provide a high level of care and always putting the children, parents and families at the heart of everything we do."
