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 38 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 38 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 30 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.

Overall lovely team, shame about outside space, as well as the breakfast items don’t match the brochure. But my child is overall happy here and has fun during the day and has a lot to talk about on the car ride home.

Nursery manager and assistant are so open and friendly, they are always very helpful and understanding.
We have been with Nuffy Bear for 4 years now with 2 children, one of whom has left for school. All of the staff at Nuffy Bear are like family to us and each and every one shows affection and kindness to both girls. Communication is always clear and with the new app showing meals etc we can have a...
The nursery is always clean, and my children rarely have colds, sickness etc so hygiene and infection control is great. I actively recommend Nuffy Bear to my friends and family.
Outside space is small in comparison to other settings but enough my my girls.
I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Nuffy Bear Nursery they look after my two boys so well my youngest from 9 months old and I wouldn’t want them anywhere else. My eldest said to me in the car this morning 'I am so excited to go to nursery'. They never go in upset just always so excited...
I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Nuffy Bear Nursery they look after my two boys so well my youngest from 9 months old and I wouldn’t want them anywhere else. My eldest said to me in the car this morning 'I am so excited to go to nursery'. They never go in upset just always so excited and happy to see all the staff and cuddle them. They eat and play and learn so well there that we couldn’t feel more content to have our boys at Nuffy which has made going back to work both times so much more manageable knowing they are so happy where they are. The outside truthfully may be ever so slightly small but there is no doubt they make the absolute most of it playing games and with bikes and toys and the kids get to be outside all day whatever the weather so that certainly makes up for it.

Nuffy Bear Nursery is a perfect place for our kids, it is a very warm, comforting, welcoming and child-friendly environment and facilities. Very professional, kind and always smiling teachers. I feel like my kids are in an ongoing active learning process. I love their communication and the fact that it's very important for them to keep updating us parents. My kids are always happy to go, and once back home always remind me how good their day was and how happy they feel every time they attend the nursery. Thank you very much to all the staff at Nuffy Bear Nursery Crawley.

I am a naturally anxious mum, and I have a particularly sensitive little boy. Both of us feel very supported by the Nuffy Bear team... there is never a question too silly or a person too busy to help.
I cannot wait for my little girl to join in August next year and watch her thrive there too.
Staff members are giving the kids the priority that they need, which makes me feel that my children are in a safe place. I am grateful for the amount of dedication given for my children to feel comfortable during their time at the nursery. Definitely a great place to be in for learning.

My grandson, who is now in my full-time care, has been attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Crawley since September 2022. I have found the staff to be so helpful and supportive through a very tough time. My grandson has excelled in his social skills, physically and mentally. He has really benefitted with the routine and stability that the nursery provides in a very warm and friendly environment. This has helped him to become a very happy, confident little boy who has so much joy when attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery.

We are very happy with her development and believe the staff at Nuffy Bear have played a large part in helping that.

Our son attends Nuffy Bear Crawley and we are very happy with the care they provide. All of the staff (not just his key worker) make a real effort to get to know him and his interests, and he often tells us that he had fun and asks to go back. They really care about him and provide affection/cuddles when needed as well as play. There's a wide range of toys and play equipment and also activities such as painting and games. We have daily updates on what he has done and also regularly learning logs about his development. The food is very good and the nursery were happy to cater for any dietary requirements. It was such a relief to find such a nice nursery where we know our son is looked after to such a high standard.
Both of my children have attended Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Crawley. I have always been so impressed with the dedication of care to the children from all the staff and management. It is a happy, fun and well equipt facility for inside and outside learning. I would highly recommend this nursery.

The manager and the team are extremely passionate about the development of all our children, and I am glad to hear that this comes across and that your daughters confidence is growing under their care.
Excellent nursery. The care and attention to detail are second to none. Our son has been there for a year and he is so advanced but also so happy. The staff genuinely love the children and go above and beyond to provide for them.

We took our 2 year old daughter to the Nuffy Bear Day Nursery after a bad experience with the settling in process at another nursery. We were nervous as we did not know how all of this is going to be here. But the team made it so smooth. Manager was very accommodating and made it all around our daughter. She was not rushed into the unknown. She was slowly and very gently introduced to the team. Also, she was given a bespoke amount of days for the settle in process. After a month at the nursery, we can see a huge change in our daughter. She's started eating better and following general rules where before it was not possible to set some boundaries. We're absolutely happy we found Nuffy Bear Nursery and very happy to be part of the team! Thank you to the manager and all the nurses.
All staff know my children so well he is definitely not just a number. I love the personal service we receive even under COVID restrictions. Both my children have loved their time at Nuffy and I would recommend it to friends and family.

My daughter started going to nursery in January this year. The ladies made the process so easy and despite having to be masked up very friendly and welcoming. I've seen a difference with learning and feeding. My daughter always has a good time and sleeps well after a nursery day. The staff have been amazing helping me as a new mum to navigate it all and highly recommend Nuffy Bears Nursery Crawley.
I can not recommend this nursery highly enough. All staff are very friendly, our little one loves going to nursery every day because she loves the staff and all the kids.

It is amazing for us to see my daughter's development since she started going to the nursery. The staff's compromise with quality and childcare. We hope our daughter spends more days next year. Thank you all for helping us on this journey.
