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.

Brightfields has provided a great start to pre-school for our 3-year-old daughter, who can be very shy. After so long in lockdown, we were worried about how she’d get on in such a stimulating setting, but she has settled and engaged brilliantly. The staff have always been contactable and seem to interact with the children really well. There have been regular updates with photos of what she’s been up to. Overall, it’s a lovely, nurturing environment and we’re really happy and confident about sending our daughter there.

My child enjoys playing at pre-school meeting and making new friends from around the village who also attend Brightfields. My child enjoys painting and taking part in messy play. They enjoy being in the garden exploring in the large sand tray and visiting big school to play on the trim trail and field. My child is happy to interact with the ladies who look after him taking part in group activities singing and looking at books together.
