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.

Abigail HudsonJob Title Nursery ManagerJoined 2012

hello!
I’m the nursery manager at RAFA Kidz Abbey Wood.

I’ve been in this role for around five years, beginning as a nursery nurse and working with children aged three months to eight years. During my journey, I’ve had the opportunity to work in various cities and learn from different nurseries, but I really enjoy my role here at RAFA Kidz. It’s a remarkable and inspiring setting, complemented by excellent facilities such as our outdoor areas and play spaces. We have a fantastic team, and our families and children contribute greatly to our nurturing environment. I believe we’ve established strong connections within our nursery community, which benefits everyone involved. Read less
