About this price
How the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- 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 nursery updates the Learning Journals regularly, so that we can see on a day by day basis what they've been up. My son has loved his 3 years at Celtic Cross and is genuinely sad to be leaving to go to school.

Our son have been at the Celtic Cross nursery for three years, and we highly recommend it. Everyone knows the names of all the children, and each child is loved and cared for. There are always lots of activities, because the staff is inventive in keeping every day fun and interesting, come rain or shine. One particular thing to mention is lots of outdoor activities and the good use of the park areas outside.
Great nursery, the staff all get to know the children and look after them very well. They spend lots of time outdoors and always have lots of activities organised to keep children entertained.
