About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
Working parents of 2 to 3 year olds can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week, and some families on qualifying benefits can claim 15 hours regardless of working status. 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 6.5 funded hours per day, used only during term time. With your selected funding, 19.5 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.

Aktiva Elmhurst has such a good Manager Lauren, the nursery staff are so involved and care about the children like their own. I have had 3 children in the nursery, 2 currently 1 has moved onto another school and this should tell you how of an amazing nursery it is! The children are happy to go in, staff know and cater for their needs. The manager goes above and beyond for her children- she is thoughtful and goes above and beyond her role. Emma is such an excellent keyworker for my children my children gravitate towards her! Sania, Tania, preeya and all staff members are so aware of the childrens individual progress and you can ask any staff member and most likely they will know the answer to anything the kids have done in their group. You can see the enthusiasm and passion. The nursery is clean and the layout changes day to day and they always update development of children on their app. I cannot say in words how much this nursery has shaped my children's development. 10/10
