Our Conditions
All fees are paid by monthly Direct Debit in advance and are calculated on the basis of the nursery being open 50 weeks a year. ie. Monthly fee = Weekly fee x 50/12 (ie 12 equal payments) Direct Debit payment will take place at the end of each preceding month ie Aprils fees are taken on 31 March, those starting in the middle of the month will be required to pay the remainder of that months balance by cash/cheque fees are payable irrespective of attendance. You pay for the place, not the amount of time your child spends at the nursery.
Please note there is no reduction in fees due to holidays or sickness. On offer of a place, a deposit of £70 is required to secure a nursery place together with a non-refundable £100 registration fee. The deposit will be deducted from your final full month’s fees.

Additional hours for Morning or Afternoon sessions will be charged at £2.50 per 30 minutes. One months notice is required when withdrawing your child from the nursery or reducing your sessions.
