Costs

You are welcome to use the 15 hours or 30 hour 2, 3 or 4 year old funding to pay for any of our sessions (subject to availability) up to your maximum funding entitlement. 

 

You could choose 3 x funded 10 hour days, totalling 30 hours per week, or 5 x funded 3 hour days totalling 15 hours per week, or any other pattern of sessions, although some of our sessions fit more neatly into the 15 or 30 hours of funding entitlement.

For any hours over your funded entitlement, we charge £10 per hour for a 2-year-old, or £7 per hour for a 3&4-year-old, and must be booked in full sessions. These charges are reviewed and may be increased each April after funding rates are published. 

 

You can pay via Child Care Vouchers if your employer has this benefit, or via the Tax Free Childcare scheme.

 

When you accept a place with us, you will be asked to sign a contract and pay a £50 deposit, which will be refunded on receipt of your child's first half-terms fees, or receipt of their funding. 

If you are interested in visiting us, please contact Rosie to arrange an appointment. 

 

If you would like a view before visiting here is our outside and inside space.
