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.

We couldn't be happier with Tilly-Mints. My daughter is thriving and looks forward to going each day. We have all built up a great relationship with the staff. Nothing is a bother to them. They treat each child as an individual and I have already recommended Tilly-Mints to a number of other mums.

Our son has attended from the age of 8 months old and loves being there. The level of care shown has been amazing and the professionalism is clear to see from his development. We would recommend this nursery to anyone without hesitation. It's clear that the staff care and know each child as individuals and work so hard to meet their individual needs and ensure they feel valued and cared for.
The staff and facilities are first class.

We will all be sad when she leaves to start a new adventure at Primary School in September.

My little boy has attended the nursery now since he was 7 months (he is now 2) and loves all the varied activities on offer. It is an excellent nursery that I would highly recommend to anyone. The staff genuinely care for the children and provide the love and stimulation you want for your child. His development has almost certainly been enhanced because of his attendance, he has already learnt so much and is a very sociable little boy always coming home singing songs that he has learnt and chatting about his best friend and staff. They also have an outdoor play area which is great as my child loves to be outside kicking a ball, climbing or playing on the bikes.
The staff really go the extra mile, nothing is too much trouble, they have met his dietary requirements of a milk free diet, and the help and support I have received from the nursery these last few months have been amazing I can't thank them enough!

My daughter started Tilly-Mints in August 2016. We were both made to feel very welcome from the door being opened to us. Every day we are greeted with a friendly face. She has settled in fab! She has come on great with her speech and is always doing different activities each day, whether it be in or outdoors. They also offer a huge choice in different foods and keep a daily diary of their progress which is available to view any time.

My daughter has absolutely flourished since joining Tilly-Mints and she absolutely adores her nursery. The staff are extremely friendly and you can see how much work they put in every day to keep the children happy and busy and always learning through their play. When my daughter first started I had some concerns about her development and the nursery have always kept me up to date with her progress and how they can help in any way to make sure she's ready to make the move to primary school this year. They also have some brilliant events for Easter and things which all the children are invited to which I think is lovely for the children to develop their friendships and enjoy the nursery with parents. I couldn't recommend Tilly-Mints enough and we'll definitely miss them when my little girl leaves for primary school.

When my daughter started she was the youngest baby at the nursery, the staff made me feel comfortable since day one and I felt completely at ease. Nothing is too much trouble for anyone and they respect your child's routine. My daughter is always smiling when I go to pick her up and always doing something different, often playing outside. The staff always provide a sheet to take home with what she has done every day including what she has ate/drank and how much sleep she has had. Could not fault the staff and they made going back to work a lot easier.
