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.

A wonderful nursery for which I would reccomend to friends / family. Staff are all so welcoming and always in happy moods with so much energy it feels a very safe place to leave our child. We love all the activities there are set up in each room and the access the children have to the large outdoor space again full of a variety of toys including mud kitchens , tough trays, climbing zones is brilliant. My little boy always comes home happy full and tired - thank you !

Archie absolutely loves Muddy Boots Wilberfoss. He has been attending now for 18 months and he has settled in with no problem. Having just moved to the pre-school room, the girls in the room made him feel so welcome and although the first week was a bit daunting for him, by week 3 he was excited when I told him he was going to nursery.
He loves the constant outdoor play, whatever the weather. I can 100% recommend Muddy Boots Nursery.
Thank you everyone.
Thank you everyone.

Both of my boys absolutely love coming to the nursery and it's exactly what they need in terms of getting their energy out in a healthy way both physically and mentally. Particular shout out to Emma and Natalie in the adventurers room, both my boys have found them comforting when they're having their wobbles and have put me at ease that they're being well cared for! Also a shout out to Tia in trailblazers, she always takes an interest in Arthur and shows enthusiasm to help him learn and grow in particular with his speech! She's also really helped him finally stay out of Nappies and encouraged toileting!

I was quite anxious beforehand, as it was a big change for him, but the staff were incredibly supportive and informative throughout the whole process, which gave me great reassurance and comfort. My son settled in so well and has absolutely thrived since moving rooms.
I'm so happy with the whole process and truly grateful to the staff for making what could have been a difficult transition feel so easy and positive for both my son and me.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful review for the team at Wilberfoss! Starting nursery and transitioning rooms can be difficult, especially for the first time, but we're so glad to hear your little one is thriving in Adventurers. Our teams are always on hand to support you and your little one, and we're proud to be part of this amazing journey with you.

My eldest got to experience all 3 rooms, and always came home excited to talk about his day!! Lots of outdoor playing/ learning and would always come home filthy which to me is a sign of a good time!
My youngest has only been in a couple of weeks and done a couple of sessions but already feels comfortable at drop off to go into the room and loves exploring all the different toys and sensory options in Discoverers! They are always wanting to know what you've been up to so they can talk about the kids' outside lives in the nursery setting which helps with their learning. I would definitely recommend Muddy Boots wilberfoss!
Thank you for leaving such a kind review, and for choosing Muddy Boots as your provider all these years! On behalf of the team at Wilberfoss, we're so glad to hear how much you and your little ones have loved being at nursery with us - you're part of the Muddy Boots family for life.

My son has been here for almost 2 years now. We joined Muddyboots after loving how much outdoor space they have and the ability to access this the majority of the time. They help all the team have given with his development milestones has been fantastic he is starting school in September and we are so sad to be leaving. The team really apply a 'normal' approach to everything rather than being over the top on restrictions and I really feel like they adjust everything to fit the individual children
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review! The team at Wilberfoss are so glad you chose Muddy Boots to be a part of your family's journey, and that you love our amazing activities and outdoor spaces. Although your little one has begun his next big step, you'll always be part of the family at Muddy Boots!
We have been using Muddy Boots for our children since 2026 and despite the fact it is a 25 minute drive from home, plus it is now in the opposite direction for both mine and my partner's work, we continue to send our children there as I could not bear to see them anywhere else. Our son O loves it...
We have been using Muddy Boots for our children since 2026 and despite the fact it is a 25 minute drive from home, plus it is now in the opposite direction for both mine and my partner's work, we continue to send our children there as I could not bear to see them anywhere else. Our son O loves it there and has done so in every room. He has developed a close relationship with all of his key workers and still loves it when his previous key workers come into the Trailblazers room to cover. Our daughter started in Discoverers a few months ago and has settled in so well which has been lovely to see. She appears happy and contented there and everyone is so attentive to her that it is evident that they care so much for each individual child. Sultan has a special place in O's heart and I know he is secretly jealous that she is moving to discoverers and will be spending more time with his sister!
Thank you for leaving such a wonderful review. The team at Wilberfoss are proud to play a small part in your nursery journey, and that you and your little ones love our nursery as much as we do! Children truly are at the heart of everything we do, you'll always be supported by our team at Wilberfoss.
D learns so much at nursery he is always coming home with new words and rhymes. He is always happy to go to nursery and very rarely upset when we leave. He sometimes does not want to come home! He loves his key worker Georgia and mentions her name lots at home.

Thank you for leaving such a lovely review for Muddy Boots Wilberfoss! On behalf of Georgia and the team, we're so glad to hear your little one has loved his time at Muddy Boots just as much as we do.
My son R absolutely adores Helen he was saying her name as one of his first 5 words and he only goes twice a week.

My son R absolutely adores Helen he was saying her name as one of his first 5 words and he only goes twice a week. The relationship Helen has created with R is amazing considering he was completely adamant he did not want to go to nursery in the beginning as he has never left us before. At pick up he's happy to see mum or dad but full of blowing kisses to his key worker which makes us so happy.
It's so amazing to hear we have played a part in your family's lives - how wonderful for Helen to have such a special bond with your son! On behalf of Helen and the team, we're so grateful for your kind words, and we couldn't be happier to have you be a part of the Muddy Boots family.

Everyday there is a new skill learnt or a new story to tell which i love.
I was nervous with my first child initially- as all first time parents - however with my second i was so excited to see how she progressed there because i can see how well its done my little boy and his personality and learning.
Its lovely to feel the level of trust i do with the people looking after your children. I am so pleased we are at Muddy boots Wilberfoss and feel very fortunate to have such an amazing setting for my children.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, we're so glad to hear you and your children are enjoying your time at Wilberfoss! You're part of the Muddy Boots family, and we're proud to have played a little part in yours.
