We welcome the use of Early Years Free Entitlement. Your personal entitlement will depend on your own circumstances and you should refer to www.childcarechoices.gov.uk to check your eligibility. You should do this as early as possible to ensure that you receive the hours you are entitled to. You can apply the term before your child turns 3. We accept funding all year round and term time only. 

​

You can apply for a place at The Nest before you have confirmed funding. To apply for a funded space at The Nest, complete our registration form and our funding application form. You can apply for a place before your eligibility is confirmed but funding can only be applied to your sessions when you have confirmed eligibility.  You can find our funding fees above.

​

All 3-year-olds receive 15 hours a week (570 hours per year) starting the term after they 3 years old. Most are entitled to 30 hours a week (1140 hours per year). When it comes to funding, how much you pay for your child's nursery place depends on your personal eligibility and your attendance at nursery. Here are some examples, but we can give you a better view based on your own circumstances and attendance preferences.  Fees include all activities, peripatetic classes, resources, outings, meals, and snacks.
