Government funding at Little Explorers
There are two government funding programmes that can help you make the most of either 15 or 30 funded hours per week, depending on your circumstances. You can see if you are eligible at www.childcarechoices.gov.uk
Government funding is a great help towards fees, however it only covers a limited number of hours and doesn’t pay for all the consumables needed to help us give your child the best start in life. Therefore, we’ll ask you to contribute towards the costs for these along with the rest of your hours. Your weekly invoice will show how your childcare is covered depending on the number of funded hours, and
explains what you’ll need to pay.
Our consumables charge does what it says on the tin, it’s all the important essentials like food and toiletries, along with those enriching extras the government funding isn’t meant to cover. Like most nurseries, we’ll ask you to contribute towards them. These include:
- Our freshly prepared healthy snacks in the morning and afternoon, along with a meal for those little ones with us at breakfast and tea time.
- Care materials, including wipes.
- Our wonderful eylog parents app, where you can swap and change sessions in a few clicks and receive photo updates during the day, to give you a real time insight in to your little ones day, including their daily diary covering toileting, food and sleeps.
- Our high quality care, and high staff to child ratios. We pride ourselves on having small numbers of staff and children especially during our frequent trips out and Forest School sessions. This ensures we can have a more individual nursery experience with your little one and whole family which is so important to us.
To cover the costs of these extras we charge £1 per funded hour at nursery which will be detailed on your invoice.
We are able to offer a number of funded places, which do not have the consumable fee attached. If you would like to apply for one of these places, please just contact us for further details.
