Our doors are open to welcome your little one, and our dedicated staff is here to create a nurturing environment where children can learn, play, and grow. From early morning drop-offs to late afternoon pick-ups, we’ve got you covered. Because at our nurseries, flexibility isn’t just a word—it’s a promise to support your family every step of the way.

Unlocking Early Years Funding

At our nurseries we’re excited to share the latest news about early years funding! The Government has introduced new programs to support eligible children, and we’re here to guide you through it all. There are two funding pots, tax free childcare and government funding.

Tax free childcare

Tax free childcare is a method of paying childcare costs (including your nursery invoice) which provides a significant saving each month. It can be used alongside both 15 and 30 hours of funding. The eligibility criteria closely follow that of 30 hours funding. However, unlike 30 hours funding, it is available to all nursery age children.

Government funding

9-23 months

Eligible families can now apply to claim 15 hours of funding from September 2024, and this will then rise to 30 hours of funding in September 2025.

2-3 years

Since April 2024, eligible families have been able to claim 15 hours of funding. This is then due to increase to 30 hours of funding for all eligible families in September 2025.

3+ years

All children over 3 in England are eligible for 15 hours of funding for 38 weeks of term time, following their third birthday. Depending on your personal circumstances, your child may also be eligible for an additional 15 hours of funding per week, making a total of making a total of 30 hours of funding for 38 weeks of term time. Please ensure that you are eligible before applying.

Just like the existing funding for 2- and 3-year-olds, the newly announced 9 months+ Government funding covers 38 weeks of term time.
But wait, there’s more! Depending on your childcare plan, you may still receive additional support beyond those 38 weeks.
Our nursery is open 51 weeks a year, so those extra weeks you child attends outside of the 38 weeks? We got you covered!
