Fees

At Christchurch Kindergarten Children's Nursery we are committed to providing excellent childcare whilst remaining competitive. We have a clear pricing structure in place for each of our branches and pride ourselves in making sure you know exactly how much you are paying for your childcare.

Call us today and speak to one of our nursery managers to find out more information. We always recommend parents to visit the nursery, so we would like to personally welcome you to Christchurch Kindergarten.

Alternatively, you can send us some details on our contact form, and we can get in touch with you.

Government Funding

NEG-funded places are available for eligible children aged 9 months, 2, 3 and 4 years.

Some working families may be entitled to funding from the term after their child’s 9-month milestone or 2nd, 3rd or 4th birthday. Parents who receive an eligible code must provide this to us, and we will apply for the funding on your behalf. Fees payable will then be calculated after deducting the funding.

Children aged two years old from non-working families may also be eligible for funding, which provides 15 hours of nursery education for 38 weeks per year. To check if you qualify, please speak with us directly, or consult your health visitor or family support worker.

All three and four year olds are entitled to 15 hours of nursery education for 38 weeks per year. We are happy to discuss these funding options in more detail, so please contact us for further information.

Childcare Vouchers

At Christchurch Kindergarten we are registered to accept all childcare vouchers. Each parent can request up to £243 a month - or £55 per week - in childcare vouchers; this amount is non-taxable and exempt from National Insurance contributions.

Please speak to your employer to find out if they are offering childcare vouchers.

Help for Students

If you're in further education you may be able to get extra financial help. This could come through the 'Care to Learn' scheme (from students under 20 years old) or through Learner's Support Funds. You may also be eligible for a grant or help from the Access to Learning Fund.

Please speak to your student welfare adviser or Local Authority for advice.
