Nursery Fees
Fees
Home from Home fees reflect an attitude on non-compromise on standards, for example, supernumerary Director of Education and Director of Operations, a high level of qualified and experienced key staff, including a large leadership team who support the smooth running of the setting, from a dedicated transition coordinator to room leaders to SEND specialists to Designated Safeguarding Officers and Health and Safety leaders.
We provide nutritious home cooked meals using fresh produce. The fees cover all of your child’s needs, including bottles, formula, nappies, wipes, creams, all meals, snack and drinks, yoga and drama classes are also included. If you require specific nappies, e.g. cloth nappies or Naturecare, we would ask you to provide these.
The Pre Preparatory unit, BBO (Bees, Badgers and Owls), benefits from input provided by our Director of Education who has Early Year Professional Status and holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Education, as well as as a Qualified Teacher based in the room full time.

Fees are due irrespective of attendance, this includes all bank holidays and Christmas Eve to New Years Day inclusive, when the nursery is closed, this reflects the reduced fee increase in April 2023 to support affordability for families, whilst remaining sustainable.
