Children learn through a rich and engaging programme based on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), with specialist dance, music and art forming an important part of the nursery experience.

Children's health, wellbeing and safety are central to the nursery's approach. Robust safeguarding measures help provide a secure environment where children can learn, play and grow with confidence.

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 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.
