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.

Excellent school. The staff are trust worthy and also there to talk to parents. Helped both my children with their progression. My children have come so far since attending Early Birds, with speech, manners and ability to learn new things. The staff are friendly and make parents feel their children are going to be safe and looked after when left at Early Birds.
Earlybirds frequently take the children on day trips throughout the holiday to fun and educational places at no additional cost. The staff are great with the children and make them very welcome. Both of my children enjoy coming to Earlybirds, I would highly recommend them.

I have two children who attend and both love attending. The staff are all friendly, helpful, kind and supportive, both to the children and to parents when the youngsters are having a bad day. All staff appear to know my kid's names - even those who are not in their specific areas. I am amazed by how much both my children have progressed since Easter - from tears and hugs to running into their rooms ready to play. The space in each room is great with a wide variety of toys and activities. Each child is treated as an individual and assisted to develop their strengths and improve their weaknesses. Highly recommended.
The staff are friendly and professional and very approachable.

This nursery is the best. Friendly staff and happy children. What more do you want? My little boy goes here and loves it. Absolutely loves it! He comes home every Wednesday and tells me what he's been doing. Is your child at this nursery? Why not? Get them in!

As a parent I feel my child is safe and settled here, he attends for two full days a week and always comes home with a smile on his face. I feel Earlybirds share the same morals and views on how a child should be raised as I do and they are a strong team who strive on encouraging children to be the best they possibly can. My son has developed beautifully since attending here especially in his speech and he has some special bonds with certain staff and other children who attend. It puts my mind at rest when I go to work that my child is in safe and positive surroundings.

My second child is now using the nursery after my 8 year old attended from 6 months. The staff are extremely warm, caring and welcoming even at the end of the day. The standard of care given by the staff has always been excellent and the range of activities they carry out in the baby room superb. The feedback on the day's activities is always comprehensive and demonstrates the care and attention they provide to the children. My child loves to attend every day which is probably the best recommendation there is. I have never had cause for complaint or concern and can recommend them highly enough.

I started my son here in September 2014 when he was just 1 years old. The staff were very welcoming and my son settled in very well,he did 2 mornings a week. In January 2016 my son started mainstream nursery at my local school but I still wanted him to come here so he has been getting picked up from school every Friday and going for dinner and play time. In recent weeks I decided to up his hours as he loves it so much so now he stays for longer. The staff are very accommodating and friendly and I can have a laugh with them all and they adore my son and he loves them too. Lots of space and activities to do to keep any age range occupied. They have lovely meals cooked for them and are very good at keeping up to date with the profiles and achievements of my son. The new management are brilliant too, very easy to speak to and I always feel relaxed when going into the nursery and as I say my son is always giddy to go and always has a smile on his face when I pick him up,that speaks volumes.

My daughter has been going here since she was 9 months old. Since the new owners took over I cannot praise this school enough. My daughter is confident, she knows her letters and numbers, she is bright and has lovely manners. This school and all the staff have supported me and my husband in bringing up our little girl. They have catered for all our childcare needs. They have helped her get over her food faddy's. The school is clean, had loads of activities set up every morning and all the staff are kind and friendly. We will be so sad come September when my daughter has to leave for big school.
I am thrilled with the service this nursery provides us especially under the new owners. Our daughter is thriving in their care and learns something new each day. She is excited each morning when we drop her off and loves the staff and children who she spends her days with. I could not recommend...

My son has been attending this nursery for 2 years, he loves it, he really enjoys all the fun and messy creative activities. The staff have taught him how to count and are now teaching him to recognise and write the 1st letter of his name. I am more than happy with his development, he is doing amazing and coming on leaps and bounds. The new preschool room looks fantastic too there is much more space and room to learn.

My daughter is 9 months and fairly new to the setting, she has settled in brilliantly with the help and support of the staff in her room. The children are very well cared for and are always doing fun exciting activities. The room is welcoming and inviting and my daughter loves exploring the activities set out. Parents are kept in the know about development through daily sheets and learning journals that are accessible to look through whenever you want. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for high-quality childcare.

We have two children at this setting, one in the baby room and one in the nursery school. Our boys are very happy at this nursery, the staff are very kind, caring and hardworking. They seem to genuinely enjoy being with the children and take much pleasure in sharing their achievements. Every time we collect the boys we are informed about what they have been doing and eaten which is normally a lot! The outdoor space is limited but they make the best of it and make sure the children get outside by taking them on local walks and to the park. I have recommended this nursery to friends and feel confident that our children are happy, safe and secure in this setting.
My daughter loved her time here, the toddler/pre-school staff (that's the ones who looked after my daughter) were fantastic and really friendly. She came on leaps and bounds, she learned to read, write and even bake. She loves the staff (as do we), she'd live there if we let her! Excellent place...

She came on leaps and bounds, she learned to read, write and even bake. She loves the staff (as do we), she'd live there if we let her! Excellent place with great staff, Thank you Earlybirds.
A really nice place for kids, the pre-school staff are brilliant and always keep the children busy.

A really nice place for kids, the pre-school staff are brilliant and always keep the children busy. Unlike other day care centres around here, the management always finds time to pop out and say hello and ask how we are. The pre-school team are professional and friendly and have taught her so much in the last year. I just wish that she wasn't going to full-time school so she could stay here.
My daughter has now left this nursery to go to "big school", and she's really going to miss the staff and their big early morning smiles. The staff have advanced her learning and really brought her out of her shell. A big thank you to you all.

My 2-year-old boy loves going to nursery. He has a great bond with all the staff and has come on leaps and bounds since attending. I will also be sending my youngest little boy once I start back work.

The staff are always coming out with new things to keep them engaged and learning without them even being aware. They go on regular day trips and are always excited to tell us about what they've been up to at the end of the day. It's reassuring knowing our children are happy and safe whilst we go to work.

I have never had any issues with the nursery but must say that since the new owner took over nearly a year ago there has been a lot of improvements.
