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.

My child moved over from a different nursery in November and she moved over with ease as everyone that I spoke to or worked with went above and beyond to help her settle in her new nursery by updating me with her progress constantly and asking me about home life to keep her progression going. All staff have been very accommodating to both mine and my child's needs during a stressful move over, making it such an easy process.
We really appreciate your review, Thank you, Aleacia.

My son has come on so much in the couple of months he has been there. His speech is really coming along and he seems to have developed a real little personality! He adores going to nursery and gets excited when we pull up outside and he knows he’s going in. Amazing nursery and staff! Couldn’t be happier!
Thank you, he is a pleasure to look after, we really appreciate your review!
We love the nursery very much. The staff are friendly, professional and my son totally loves them and he always comes back very happy. Although he was never in a nursery before and had never been with someone else other than his parents, the staff were so welcoming and he adjusted very quickly.

Thank you very much, Anamaria, this is really appreciated, he is a pleasure to look after.
My daughter loves going to nursery which is such a reassuring feeling seeing her happy going in through the door. She comes home tired which is a sign of a good, busy day.

This nursery is fantastic I have sent my two-year-old to this nursery as I sent my now seven-year-old to the nursery. I cannot fault the nursery at all they have been incredible with both my children, my child who currently attends settled really well and really quickly. He enjoys all the meals made by the nursery, I get observation updates on him he loves it, he loves the outside area of the nursery. The nursery manager and deputy manager have been amazing always keep in contact with me and the staff have been amazing with him in the toddler room. The girls of Dunkys Warrington just keep doing what you're doing you're all amazing thanks for all you do.
Thank you, Whitney, for such a lovely review. It has been lovely looking after your older child and I am so pleased that your 2-year-old child has settled so quickly too.
From my granddaughter starting nursery, she has gone from being upset to can’t get her in nursery quick enough. She loves all the staff, couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, staff are amazing and do everything they possibly can.

They will always try and help out where they can do and for those unexpected last-minute changes. No issues whatsoever. Thank you for being great!
Thank you very much, Chloe; we really appreciate your review!
A really fantastic nursery. My son's last nursery, unfortunately, had to close so I was worried about how he’d settle into a new one. To be completely honest, Dunkys Day Nursery wouldn’t have been my first pick...it wasn’t that I’d heard anything bad, it’s just that the sign outside isn’t great and...
The staff at Dunkys (Warrington) were really great at reassuring us both and making sure he settled in quickly. He comes home and tells me all about the fun he’s had with his friends and what toys he’s played with. His confidence has rocketed and his language has improved massively too. He’s a really picky eater at home but eats pretty much everything put in front of him at nursery! I’m looking forward to him moving to preschool in September and continuing to learn.
All the staff should probably get a Covid bonus/raise.

Our little one absolutely loves it there and loves the staff so much; he doesn’t cry when he is dropped off. They keep us updated with everything we need to be updated with, and the app is great to see his development.

My son attends the baby room and really enjoys going to the nursery, he has come on loads since attending. He always has a smile for the staff who look after him. Can't recommend the nursery and staff enough.

My son enjoys his days at nursery. The staff are always informative of his day and his learning has been excellent. He eats a varied diet and has made plenty of friends. Fees are reasonable and nursery staff communicate well with parents

Excellent nursery, staff are friendly and approachable. My daughter enjoys it here which is an added bonus. Regular updates on what activities my child is doing, what she eats (and how much) which is great as it keeps me in the loop. It is also comforting knowing she is having fun whilst engaging and learning with other children. Safety measures within government guidelines are in place and followed which is very reassuring.

I’m really happy my little boy is preschool at this place! The teachers are lovely and give loads care for kids, wonderful atmosphere, contact with the teacher on all matters available. an application in which you can check each day what the child ate and did on a given day. I recommend this place!

Every evening when picking my child up, I spend a good 5-minutes with the staff talking to me about my child’s day. They also have an app too, so I can see my child’s progress and also what he had for his tea that day. I recommend this nursery; I can’t believe the change in my son since the 3 months he’s been there!
