Little Oaks Day Nursery
Fees & Funding
Government funded childcare schemes from September 2024
​
From September 2024, 15 hours of government funded childcare will be extended to all children from the age of 9 months. From September 2025, working parents of children under the age of five will be entitled to 30 hours of government funded childcare a week. Application for these offers will be available in the coming months.
Fully funded placements are available based on capacity. For further information, please reach out to the manager of your chosen nursery.
Whilst the Government funding is structured for 38 weeks of the year (term time), our places are for 52 weeks of the year and so the funded hours are stretched over the 52 weeks that we’re open. Applied over 52 weeks, the funding equates to 11 hours 15 minutes per week. The same principle applies for the 30 hour funding.

Parents can assess their eligibility for funding and the application process by visiting the Government Childcare Choices website.
