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 applies funded hours during term time only. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 6 funded hours per day, used only during term time. With your selected funding, 18 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 tried a few nurseries/childminders and never been this happy. My son absolutely loves it there and loves the ladies who look after him. So much effort goes into the small details for example on tapestry hearing about my sons day, when reading it I can tell that’s just like him.
The staff are so good with my son, he literally chants her name in the car on the way in the morning he can’t wait to go.
My son is 2 years old and the activities they have done with him are great. The drawings and things he’s made that he's bought home at Christmas were just so lovely
Everyone’s lovely when they greet you, all the staff. So far I’m really impressed and just so glad I’ve finally found somewhere I’m happy to put my kids without a single worry.
Thank you so much for this lovely review. The team are delighted with this feedback.
My daughter has been at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Millway since September 2020 and we are so happy. Communication is excellent! Regular updates on progress and photos of activities they have been busy doing. My daughter has progressed so much since starting in September. Thank you!

I cannot rate this nursery highly enough! Having moved from another local nursery in October, my daughter has settled in so well and can’t wait to go here. The staff have been welcoming and attentive and really made an effort to settle and reassure both my daughter and us throughout the whole process. She now loves going to nursery and the updates on Tapestry show the full range of activities she does and she’s made lots of lovely friends, I’m so happy we made the decision to move here!
Thank you for the lovely review, the team are delighted to hear this.
My daughter going to this nursery from September and it’s very happy every day and this tells me everything about the place. I love to see my daughter very happy and I love to know the teachers have good care of my daughter.

The development updates on the online journal are brilliant and I love seeing all the photos. The little extra activities they setup are well organised and they do so much to keep parents engaged. Fab pre-school.

My Daughter currently Attends Ashbourne Day Nurseries and she absolutely loves going, she always talks about the staff at home and other friends that she very quickly made. The staff have made lovely bonds with my daughter and I feel she is well cared for in the setting. Getting regular updates via Tapestry (online learning journal) is fab! Getting to see what areas she is working towards at pre-school and also being able to do the same supporting her the same at home and at Pre-school. Ashbourne provides great activities and a wide range, and a great outdoor space. Overall a really lovely setting, making you feel welcome and well supported when dropping your little one off for the first time.

Having visited quite a number of different pre-school settings for my daughter, I was blown away with the provision on offer at Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Millway when we were given a guided tour. The biggest indicator, for me, was seeing how comfortable and delighted my two year old was within the environment and how excited she was to see each new activity or area available for her to explore. We have had a mixed bag of experiences with nurseries and pre-schools for my (now 7-year-old) son and my daughter - some outstanding....and some....not so much......but Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Millway have exceeded our expectations and we absolutely knew that this would be the best place to aid in the growth and development of our daughter.
Excellent nursery my second child is also now attending. I wouldn't send my children anywhere else. It's a happy place to learn and the staff are amazing. Excellent with special needs children, both of mine have done so well with all the love and support they received. Can't thank them enough.

She has settled in fantastically thanks to the help and support from the staff. The staff are incredibly supportive and very approachable and always go the extra mile.
Every day in session I get to see what she's been up to and feel reassured that she's enjoying her time at the preschool.
Many thanks for your lovely words Carley.

My eldest went here 2 years ago and now I have my 2 younger children currently here and I can’t recommend them highly enough. The staff are excellent, so friendly, approachable and most of all great with the kids! My son has some medical needs and the staff are brilliant with him and always offer support when needed to him and myself. I also love the extra mile they go to do things like nativity plays and sports day. All round a great preschool.
Thank you, Sophie, for your kind words
My daughter has been going to Little Wiggles for the past year and she loves it. She has come on so much and her confidence has really developed. We couldn't be happier with the setting and we are so happy we sent her there.
