15 Hour Funded Session Options

All children aged 3 and 4 years old are entitled to 15 hours of government-funded early education per week. This is a universal offer, meaning it is available to all families, regardless of employment or income.

At our nursery, these funded hours are free at the point of delivery and can be accessed through either morning or afternoon funded sessions. Families may choose to top up their child’s sessions with additional paid hours if they wish. Any extra sessions outside the 15 funded hours are charged separately — please see the additional charges below for full details.

Funded Session Options (15 Hours)

• Morning funded session: 8:45am – 11:45am (3 hours) – Funded

• Afternoon funded session: 12:30pm – 3:30pm (3 hours) – Funded

Additional sessions beyond the funded entitlement can be booked as non-funded sessions. (See grid below) 

15 Hours for Eligible 2-Year-Olds (Talking 2s)

In addition to the universal 15-hour offer for 3- and 4-year-olds, eligible families may also be able to access 15 hours of funded childcare for 2-year-olds through the Talking 2s scheme. This funded entitlement is available to families who meet specific criteria and is designed to support children’s early learning and development.
