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 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 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.

RAFAKidz High Wycombe has been absolutely fantastic in supporting our son, who has special educational needs. From the very beginning, every member of staff has shown genuine care, patience, and understanding, creating a safe and nurturing environment where he has been able to grow in...
The team has always worked closely with us, communicating regularly and adapting activities to meet his individual needs.
As parents, knowing our son was in such capable hands has meant everything. RAFAKidz goes above and beyond for every child, and their commitment to inclusive, high-quality care is truly outstanding. We will always be grateful for the incredible start they have given our son, and we couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Now extra curricular activities added and charged separately but no notification of what these activities are we saw no change in activities but were being charged extra.
Use of App for child at home for parents to submit, was not included or used to support cases (legal court cases)
Did not support EHCP for child despite all other professionals recognising differences with child.
The nursery started off great! But then changes crept in.
I chose this nursery because of certain activities being available and use of sign language (Makaton)
Also has no update on website of staff working at nursery (meet team) no mention of their qualifications and abilities.
The review i leave now is the one it truly deserves.

My daughter has loved her time at Rafa Kidz High Wycombe. She's made lots of friends and always has exciting news to share with us at the end of each day. She feels very ready to move on to big school now. Thank you!

The staff are consistently attentive, caring, and considerate of the boys' individual needs. They provide excellent feedback and keep us informed whenever necessary, which we greatly appreciate.
I particularly value the regular photographs that are shared, as they allow us to see what the boys have been doing throughout the day and give us a real sense of their experiences at nursery.
I cannot thank the staff enough for the support, care, and encouragement they have provided to our children. Their dedication and professionalism make RAF Kidz an exceptional environment, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they do.
We thought our child was settled in a previous nursery but she is so much happier at this one. The staff are invested in the children and take time to talk to you about their days and I can see my daughter loves the staff.

We thought our child was settled in a previous nursery but she is so much happier at this one. The staff are invested in the children and take time to talk to you about their days and I can see my daughter loves the staff. They are all very good with her and have taken the time to get to know her. The message you to let you know what is going on or if something is different. For example, my child wouldn't sleep the other day so they messaged to say they'd tried but she was happy and not wanting to sleep. You get pictures weekly and they do assessments.
Lovely nursery with lots of resources and facilities. My only concern here is the high turnover of staff and inconsistency of daily structure. Outside of that - I feel like my child is well cared for, happy and developing well here.

Our 1st born daughter has attended since it opened, I left a review in 2024. She starts school in September, so leaving a final review.
She's transitioned through all 3 rooms. Each provided a kind and nurturing environment, encouraging lots of independent free play both indoors and out, as well as varied and interesting supported activities. The staff get the children out on foot, including visits to a little softplay facility that's available on the station.
WiFi cannot get a good connection meaning a weekly round up rather than a daily update for pre-schoolers, we don't mind this but I know some may.
Recently transitioned to meals prepared off site, I was skeptical but this has been fantastic - really varied and healthy, with webinars and recipes. Pre-schoolers do forest school once a week and each week has a theme inc an artist to try and take inspiration from. Great staff always making improvements and changes as they see fit. No hesitation in sending our son who starts tomorrow

Since my son began at RAFA Kidz High Wycombe he has come on leaps and bounds. His improvement in his speech and communication is especially fantastic. The staff truly care about our children, tailoring activities to their likes and interests. Activities are varied and engaging. My son always comes home with a full tummy and a varied, balanced menu is given. The nursery is spotless and maintained to a high standard.
Thank you very much for your lovely review, the staff truly do care.

RAFA Kidz (RAF High Wycombe) has been brilliant to us the parents and the kid. This was our first (and our first time using a nursery) so emotions were running high but fair play to the guys at RAFA Kidz, they were brilliant. They transformed our shy, quick-to-cry kid into this loud, confident, wrecking ball of a toddler. Putting him in full-time so my wife could go back to work was the best thing we ever did for him - and we took him to the model village so the bar was pretty high.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. We are so pleased you had such a good experience.

From the moment of arrival security, courtesy, and professionalism - we were totally impressed and reassured with the staff, service, and establishment.
To the time of leaving, with a very happy/relaxed little boy! Thank you sounds so inadequate - but please be assured it is heartfelt; that total peace of mind for our family in its entirety.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. We are so pleased you had such a positive experience.

RAFA Kidz High Wycombe have been so supportive of my daughter and her start into the setting. She has settled immensely well and the staff are fabulous. She is happy to go to her key worker and doesn't even look back now! They have been able to meet my childcare needs which has made my return to work run smoothly. As a result of this I am now moving my older child to this setting. The facilities are excellent too.
Thank you so much! That's lovely to hear! We are looking forward to having both children join us and make it a memorable journey for them!

My son also has a cow's milk allergy and they have been amazing with tailoring the menu so he doesn’t ever miss out!
100% would recommend this nursery. The staff are amazing too and have been so supportive and friendly! Thank you for everything!
Thank you so much! He is an absolute pleasure to have with us! We are loving watching him grow into his personality!
Since the first day our son joined the nursery, we have been extremely impressed with how he has settled in and this is a testament to the staff who were supportive to him and us as parents. The nursery is lovely and welcoming and being the first place we have ever left our son with strangers we...
We found the app amazing and feel that the staff do such a good job at keeping it updated so we can see how he is getting on all day.
The meals that are provided are really varied and he eats so much more than he was at home. Our little boy loves to be outside and to be active and they provide loads of time outdoors in the fresh air and activities including soft play where he has become so confident using the slide.
Thank you so much! We love having him here and being able to support his journey!

Our child has been attending RAFA Kidz High Wycombe for the last year, in that time we as a family and he as an individual have received amazing support from the nursery with his settling in and development. He has flourished under their care and loves to go there on his nursery days. The staff are professional and genuinely interested in creating a nurturing and supportive environment for the children and families.
An absolute pleasure to look after! We hope he will continue to enjoy nursery and thrive while he is with us! Thank you so much!

There are a number of staff who go above and beyond their roles and provide a great deal of comfort and kindness to the children in a home away from home. The nursery is very secure and well lit and I enjoy the amount of outdoor space that my child can play in. Would highly recommend it.
Thank you so much! This is lovely to hear! We aim to keep all our families happy and provide the best quality care we can!
My son has had really great experiences in both the baby room and toddler room! He is happy and well looked after. There has been some inconsistency in staff over the last 11 months but that is happening all over and through no fault of the nursery itself. It’s great to see the activities they do...
My son has had really great experiences in both the baby room and toddler room! He is happy and well looked after. There has been some inconsistency in staff over the last 11 months but that is happening all over and through no fault of the nursery itself. It’s great to see the activities they do and all the kids look like they are having fun. Couldn’t ask for anything more - my child is happy, settled, and enjoys going! Plus all the staff are lovely!
Thank you! He is a joy to have with us!! We aim to keep them happy and settles and learn through lots of play!

Exceptionally positive experience with RAFA kids nursery. We couldn’t have asked for a more kind and caring environment for our daughter. The staff care for each child and their individual development, nurturing their interests. They have encouraged our daughters curiosity and imagination and she has developed real affirming skills to take her toward into primary school. Highly recommend.
She was struggling with her communication but since attending 3 mornings a week, the difference in her is huge.
She absolutely loves going, she eats all her meals...
She was struggling with her communication but since attending 3 mornings a week, the difference in her is huge.
She absolutely loves going, she eats all her meals and snacks and even asks for more, it’s clear she eats much better in a peer setting.
The activities are varied and she loves getting stuck in!
The updates we get on the app are brilliant, so we can keep an eye on what she’s up to during the day.
There are personal updates as well as photos of what they’ve been up to. Really puts our minds at rest, especially being the first time away from home at nursery.
The staff are super friendly and always update verbally upon collection.
The opening hours are brilliant, long days and open all year round, not just term time.
They have been super flexible with allowing us to book her in for extra afternoons or days if we need to and if there is space.
What a lovely review! Thank you so much! It's been amazing looking after her and watching her grow!
