About Us

Admissions to Club 0-14

Babies, toddlers and Preschool (nursery place)

We aim to make our setting as accessible and flexible to families as possible. We are registered to care for
children from birth; normally we would accept a child from 6 weeks.

• Our baby room is for children from 6 weeks to rising 2. Children move to the toddler room dependant on their individual development and after discussion with parents
• Our toddler room is for children aged 2 to 3 years and again children may move to the preschool room before the age of 3 years if suitable for their individual development
• Our preschool room is for children 3 years old until they start school full time.

Free funded hours

We offer free funded hours in our toddler room and preschool, subject to criteria for LEA grant funding.  2
year olds may be eligible for ‘24U’ funding – up to 12 hours a week and 3 years old are eligible the term after their 3rd birthday – up to 15 hours a week during term time.

The free hours are available to all families and you can book just the free funded hours, you do not need to
pay for any other sessions.

Please speak to the nursery manager for further details and how to book your free funded hours.
