Help with Childcare
Every child is eligible for free Nursery education from the term immediately after their 3rd birthday. Government funding provides a maximum of 15 hours per child, which can be offered during term time only. Some parents are eligible for 30 hours free childcare; you can check your eligibility and find more information using the links below:
15 Hour Childcare
All parents of children aged 3 to 4 years are entitled to 15 hours of free childcare or early education per week for 38 weeks of the year, totalling up to 570 hours annually. You do not have to apply for this funding as you will automatically receive this funding when your child joins our nursery.
30 Hours Free Childcare
Eligible working families can access up to 30 hours of funded childcare per week.
To qualify:
- Each parent must earn a minimum equivalent to 16 hours a week at the national minimum wage.
- Earnings will be under £100,000 adjusted net income/year.
For working families: Apply for 30 hours childcare
