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 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 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've used this nursery for 2 of my children who have received excellent care always. The activities are creative and inclusive. Meals are nutritious and the children are encouraged to be independent. I would recommend the nursery to family and friends.

My grandchild attends this nursery and over the past few weeks she has struggled to settle, the girls have all helped make us feel reassured and give us lots of confidence in them that she will settle. I couldn’t ask for such a lovely bunch of girls for my grandchild to be with to help her learn and develop throughout her time in the nursery.
My son has really come on since starting at the nursery. All staff are friendly and helpful. Good facilities and lots for kids to do. Can't fault the nursery.

I have no complaints and have always felt welcome whenever dropping my son off. Also since joining my son has come on leaps and bounds due to the attention he gets at home and at the nursery.
