A £20.00 registration fee is payable upon registration of your child in order to secure the place, this will then be deducted from your first invoice. If your child will be claiming the free funded hours only, this £20.00 will be returned upon your child starting at the Pre-School.
Fees are £4.90 per hour for 3-4 year olds and £5.40 for 2 year olds. All fees must still be paid if children are absent.
For your child to keep her/his place at the setting, you must pay the fees. We are in receipt of nursery education funding for two, three and four year olds; where funding is not received, then fees apply.
We also accept the childcare vouchers that employees can claim from their employers. If you are in receipt of Tax Credits you might be able to claim for your child’s care.
Funding Requirements
We receive Nursery Education Funding from Leicestershire County Council. When your child reaches the age for funding, (please refer to the table) we will issue you with a Parents Statement of Undertaking (PSOU) for you to fill out. This will enable your child to receive up to a maximum of 30 hours a week term time.
For further information, please read the ‘Information for Parents’ document that is given to you when your child is of eligible age.
You will also be required to supply the pre-school with a copy of your child’s Birth Certificate.
