We offer a competitive rate with high quality care and facilities. As a registered charitable nursery all our funds are invested into the services we offer. This allows us to provide a high level of daycare service to you and your child.

HELP WITH THE COST OF CHILDCARE  

Tax Credits -  Nine out of ten families are eligible for financial help.  The award depends on the family's circumstances and income.

  • Child Tax Credit - Generally families with income of up to £58,000 (or £66,000 if there is at least one child under a year old) are eligible.  The maximum CTC is over £33 per week for each child.
  • Working Tax Credit - For people on low to middle incomes that can include help with childcare costs.
  • Childcare Element of Working Tax Credit - is aimed at helping working parents cover childcare costs.  You can claim up to a maximum of 80p for every £1 you pay for registered or approved childcare up to certin limits.

For more information on Tax Credits call the HM Revenue and Customs Tax Credit Helpline on 0845 300 3900 or visit www.hmrc.gov.uk/taxcredits to find out if you're eligible for help.

Employer Supported Childcare

Further to the tax credits mentioned above, some employers give employees vouchers to pay for childcare.  The vouchers are usually offered in place of part of your salary under a system known as "salary sacrifice".  The first £55 per week of any voucher you receive is exempt from tax and National Insurance contributions provided it is used to pay for registered or approved childcare. For more information on childcare vouchers, visit www.daycaretrust.org.uk  For more information on the Childcare Approval Scheme, visit www.childcareapprovalscheme.co.uk

Nursery Education Grant - if your child is three or four years old, they are entitled to a free, part-time early education place from 1 September, 1 January or 1 April following their third birthday.  A free, part-time place is a maximum of five, two-and-a-half hour sessions per week. As a nursery session is five hours per day the grant is used as part payment and is deducted from your invoice on a monthly basis.  Whilst attending our nursery your child will be automatically registered with the local authority to receive this grant if eligible.

Staff to others = 1 member of staff for every 6 children
