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.

With the help of the excellent staff our child (who can be a bit shy at times) settled in at the nursery quickly and she now loves going there. The nursery has a large outdoor area and they spend time outside every day. The staff are extraordinarily friendly and very gentle with the children. They played a huge part in making the transition to nursery as easy as possible for our child. All the learning at the nursery is well documented and parents receive daily care sheets to get an insight into what their child has been up to. The food is freshly prepared on site and our daughter seems to enjoy it. Overall I would highly recommend Banana Moon Day Nursery Sheffield.
I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. We are so thankful we came across Banana Moon. Sadly we had to remove our daughter from her previous nursery we placed her in which ended up totally destroying her confidence and making her very anxious about being left or using the toilet. At this...
I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. We are so thankful we came across Banana Moon. Sadly we had to remove our daughter from her previous nursery we placed her in which ended up totally destroying her confidence and making her very anxious about being left or using the toilet. At this point we came across Banana Moon who when we explained the situation went way above the call of duty to make our daughter settle in, rebuild her potty training confidence and she absolutely loves it here. The facilities are wonderful and possibly the best outdoor space we have ever come across with a large walled landscaped play garden where they have picnics and snacks! From music, French and Spanish classes and museum trips this nursery provides it all (and our daughter only does 2 days a week!). The freshly cooked food on the premises offers a great variety and rooms are bright, light and airy. The staff are superb and our daughter genuinely adores her key worker; she always comes back bursting with things to tell and things to show us about her day with great excitement and enthusiasm. Her speech has significantly improved since attending this nursery and her self confidence is fully restored again. She even asks to go to nursery! Every session is followed up with a full write up covering all of her day, and the chance to ask questions if needed. The nursery really has helped bring out our daughters personality again, and as a military family we are used to seeking new establishments due to frequent moves. We have visited many nurseries, but I cannot state how blessed we are that our daughter attends Banana Moon and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Hello,My name is Danni and I am the manager of Banana Moon Day Nursery. I have worked here since 2016 and became manager in 2018. I have 2 boys who are 5 and 2. My eldest has gone to primary school this year and my youngest is here with me at Banana Moon. I am level 6 qualified after achieving a BA honours in early childhood studies and have over 10 years’ experience of working in early years across all age ranges. I love outdoor play! We spend a lot of family time over the weekends in the parks and woods surrounding Sheffield, getting wet and muddy. This is something we actively encourage at Banana Moon and our large garden allows us to enhance children’s experiences in the outdoor environment. I also love our storytimes at nursery. Watching the children’s imagination grow with every turn of the page is one of my favourite things about working in early years.
