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 staff and would highly recommend to anyone in this region, one of the best and my child has been there for the last 3 years and enjoys every bit of it. Very cordial and diverse staff, plenty of activities all year round, swimming classes, practical learning like chicken hatching/incubation, fire engine/man visit etc. Also, the management is excellent and is a family run business with a personal touch. Kudos to the entire team and staff.

I am a very proud mother of a four-year-old daughter and I thank the staff for all their constant efforts in making each day wonderful with their creative learning and activities. My daughter has been in the nursery for the last 3 years and enjoys every day. It is a very pleasant environment and the children are in their safe hands. This makes it a happy place. I am so pleased with the choice we have made and would highly recommend it.

We discovered at an early age that he had severe allergies, working with the manager and her team through a tough period, they came up with ideas that helped our son feel included at meal times without any risk to his health.
I honestly can not put into words how highly I recommend Mother Goose.

I cannot recommend Mother Goose Corner highly enough. Since November 2019, my son has been taken care of by the fantastic staff in the Baby Suite. From the outset, the staff have made the effort to get to know my son as an individual and have been responsive to his needs, both in terms of educational activities, and nurturing and caring for him at times when he's been unwell or upset. We receive regular updates on him, his daily activities, and his progress both in person and via an app. They do a great job at balancing fun and education with their selection of games and activities and they show a great deal of variety in terms of themes and areas of focus. The staff in the Baby Suite are dedicated, enthusiastic, and caring. On the rare occasions when I have picked my son up and his key worker was not around, I can always rely on whichever member of staff is available to give me a reliable update.

We had a change in circumstances which meant the nursery was now out of our usual commute but having seen other nurseries, they just didn’t touch the amazing Mother Goose. My little boy has been going since he was ten months old, full time, and he honestly wouldn’t be the amazing little character he is without them. They have helped him grow and taught him so much and I couldn’t have asked for a better nursery. The staff are all so patient and caring and always want to help the children and teach them anything they can. Over the last few months my boy has started showing a real want to learn and develop more ready for school this year. They have jumped at the opportunity and keep working with him on all the skills he will need to help him going forward. They always include the children and take on board their individual interests so my little boy loves going in every day. They are such a wonderful place and I couldn’t imagine my little boy being anywhere else.

My children have been attending Mother Goose since 2014. First my oldest who is now at school and my youngest who is now in preschool after starting in Mother Goose’ baby suite at eight months old. Never have I once doubted the care of all of the staff at Mother Goose. They are all caring, engaged and go above and beyond for all of the children in their care. They bring out the best in all children in a safe, fun, encouraging environment. The activities are varied and never fail to surprise me, from yoga, languages, crafts to the fantastic outdoor space which is used in all weathers. I have no hesitation in recommending Mother Goose to anyone.

My son was quite emotional when he first started going to Mother Goose Corner and the staff worked with me to build up his confidence and help him make friends. Now my son loves going to preschool and gets involved in all of the exciting activities. He tells me he particularly loves yoga, zumba and learning French and Polish!
My son's key worker has been extraordinary and keeps me updated on his development milestones. She is just the loveliest person.
The owners clearly really care about their staff and invest in their futures which is probably why they all seem so happy to be there each day. It is unlike any nursery/preschool I have ever seen and I really haven't got a bad word to say about Mother Goose Corner - they are outstanding.

What can be said about the staff that work there other than they are all excellent. Friendly, knowledgable, highly professional and extremely patient with me... oh, and my boys (I do ask a lot of questions being a first time parent).
They offer a varied diet for the children under their care. The food always smells amazing as the kitchen is right next to the entrance and I’m almost entirely sure my boys eat better than I do.
The new play facilities in the garden are amazing and are far better than the facilities that most of the parks in Huntingdon have.
To cut a long story short; we searched and visited a few nurserys before our boys were born as we always felt that the early days of development are the most important. Over a year on and my two little boys are proof of what a fun and happy environment can do. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you.
The staff go over and above the expectations of a nursery school, always putting our sons educational and emotional needs at the core of everything that they do.
Feedback is excellent, via use of the app and through evening reports....
The staff go over and above the expectations of a nursery school, always putting our sons educational and emotional needs at the core of everything that they do.
Feedback is excellent, via use of the app and through evening reports. The nursery are easy to contact on the phone and provide opportunities to meet to discuss our son's progress as required.
They provide excellent standards of food and snacks.
The environment is clean, with plenty of educationally enriching equipment and opportunities to learn.
The teenie room has 'themes' which change regularly to provide interest and understanding to the children.
Our son has built a strong relationship with his key worker and often talks about her and the other nursery workers at home.
Our son's speech, language, literacy and numeracy skills have developed rapidly since starting at Mother Goose Corner.
The nursery is well led by knowledgeable and effective leaders.
Excellent staff and premises. My child loves it there, has dietary issues/allergies and these are catered for with no problems.

Mother Goose Corner Nursery really is a place where you feel like family. Since my daughter joined, the team have been nothing but supportive. Not only does my daughter have a fantastic time, but she has fun learning, and always tells us what adventures she has been on with such enthusiasm. To top it off, the staff are amazing and always make time to talk to me about my daughter's day and how she is getting on. They have also been very supportive to us as a family in difficult times. I would not hesitate to recommend Mother Goose to other families and look forward to seeing my second daughter flourish in a wonderful environment.
They are very flexible and understanding if something comes up and extra is required.
My son has great fun with lots of activities for them to do.

I have two children at the nursery both been there since they were around 6 months old and they love it. One currently in the baby room and the other in the preschool room. The preschool room is fantastic! The staff are really friendly, well trained and know what they are doing and give great...
The Tweenie room is also great. When my oldest was in there the activities they did were brilliant and messy, exactly what my child loved. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and again give great advice and fantastic feed back at the end if the day.
My son has been attending Mother Goose since September 2017 and loves his time there.

We all love this nursery. Staff, kids and all the people involved in children's education, they are all great. Only one regret that we didn't find it sooner. Such a shame my child goes to school in September.
