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.

We are so happy with Puddleducks and feel very lucky to have found such a caring, pro-active nursery for our son. It was really important we found the best setting for our little boy who has additional needs, we did quite an extensive search of surrounding nurseries and Puddleducks was by far the best choice. We feel the Manager and the team go above and beyond for our son and we could not be happier with the care and support we receive for him and us. Our little boy is eager to arrive at Puddleducks and has built up really strong relationships with his key worker and the rest of the team, he engages in lots of fun activities and always has a big smile on his face when I pick him up! The communication between nursery and home is brilliant and I love to see regular photo updates of him and all his friends on Facebook. We cannot praise Puddleducks enough for all their hard work and enthusiasm, we feel reassured to have their support.

An amazing nursery with amazing staff willing to go above and beyond what is expected. The effort put into each activity and the attention given to each child is really remarkable. Every time I look at my child's file it is brimming with individual observations and notes. The staff are genuinely lovely and I feel completely at ease when I drop my little boy off for the day knowing he will be 100% happy.
