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.

My son attended this nursery in the baby room and in the over 2-year-olds room and he enjoyed being in both areas. We benefited from a long and flexible settling period, which helped my son get used to the new environment. He loved the nursery team and being with the children. The nursery team are always reassuring to the children and parents and kept me well informed of his progress and daily activities. He has come a long way in terms of learning, communication, and independence. I highly recommend Twisty Tails.

Staff are very helpful and friendly. Good location. Care towards my son from all staff is excellent. My son has started expressing/pointing to an object that he needs or what he wants to say since he joined Twisty Tail Nursery. Activities played in nursery are quite good. Information from Tapestry helps us to know what my child development is and how we can work on it at home to encourage him. as a parent, I am happy to see my son getting engaged with good teachers and his peers.

We are very happy with the care and attention of this nursery. My daughters (one in the baby room and the other in the preschool room) are always happy when they are dropped off and picked up from nursery and always look forward to attending the following day.
The outdoor area is spacious with decent outdoor equipment that's sufficient enough to keep them busy whilst they are out there. The management and entire staff members are lovely and are always willing to help, support and listen. I would recommend the nursery to friends and family.
