Funding
At Kinderland Day Nursery, we want to ensure we are supporting our parents in every way possible! This includes financially! We offer all the government support* such as the universal funding, the extended funding and the tax free childcare scheme. It can all get a bit complicated so we have detailed below how we offer the funding but please don't hesitate to get in touch or to come by for a visit to learn more on how this works.

Funding at Kinderland
The 15 or 30 hours are term time only and as we are open all year round, we stretch the funding so it becomes 11 hours or 22 hours per week throughout the entire year.
What does this mean?
For 15 hours universal funding you could be eligible for 2x funded sessions per week. This means you only pay £7 per funded session for additional services. This is £14.00 per week (excluding any extra sessions).
For 30 hours it is the same as above but doubled.
Our sessions are 7:30am-1:00pm or 1:00pm-6:30pm, you can have a mixture of AMs and PMs however, there is a limit of 1x funded session per day.
FUNDING EXAMPLES:
4 FULL DAYS ON 30 HOURS FUNDING:
4 x £7 (additional services) + 4 x £58.34 (half day rate) = £261.36 per week (£65.34 per day)
You could then utilise the tax free childcare scheme saving a further 20% which would mean the weekly cost would be £209.09
2 FULL DAYS ON 15 HOURS FUNDING
2 x £7 (additional services) + 2 x £58.34 (half day rate) = £130.68 per week (£65.34 per day)
You could then utilise the tax free childcare scheme saving a further 20% which would mean the weekly cost would be £104.54
30 HOURS FUNDED ONLY PLACE (4 HALF DAYS)
4 x £7 additional services = £28
15 HOURS FUNDED ONLY PLACE (2 HALF DAYS)
2 x £7 additional services = £14
What is the additional services charge?
Our additional services charge is £7 per funded session which enables us to continue to provide a high quality of care for all children during their funded hours. As widely publicised the government funding does not match what we spend. This charge covers nappies, wipes and any other aspects of hygiene needs. The charge also enables us to provide healthy meals that the children can enjoy and share together. It also means we never charge any extra for our visitors & trips. For example, our Christmas fun, the animal visits, leaps and bounds etc. We offer African drumming lessons, twice weekly French lessons, football coaching and trips to the woods and so many others throughout the year! We take the children on outings too, to the London Transport Museum, local libraries & many other places. We also have inhouse musicians and we have our lovely Music & Movement lead who does sessions with every room!
We never charge any more for any of this as the service charge helps us covers it.

*N.B. If your child falls out of eligibility and one months notice has not been given, full fees are required to be paid by the parent/ carer.
**NB We do offer limited places that are exempt from the additional services charge
