We understand that navigating childcare funding can sometimes feel complicated, and we’re here to make the process as straightforward as possible.
Eligible families may be able to access government-funded childcare from nine months of age, helping towards the cost of their child’s early years education.
Our team can explain how funded hours are applied, discuss any additional charges and help you understand the options available to your family.
We also offer discounts for eligible siblings and NHS employees, subject to our current terms and conditions.
