We charge £7 per hour.

Payment is made upon receipt of an invoice at the beginning of each half term. Cheques should be made payable to “Bamford Pre-School Playgroup”. Once a place has been allocated to a child, payment must still be made when the child does not attend for any reason, e.g. holidays, sickness etc.

Funded places are available, you can get information on the different funding available for your circumstances here: https://www.childcarechoices.gov.uk/

All parents can claim 15 hours per week funding as part of the Early Years Entitlement for the term after their child turns 3 years old.

Working families may be able to apply for 30 hours per week, subject to eligibility, and upon receipt of a funding code.  You can check eligibility criteria here: https://beststartinlife.gov.uk/childcare-early-years-education/15-and-30-hours-support/working-families/eligibility/.

We also offer a flexible payment system for families with differing means, please ask a member of staff if you would like more information.

We do not charge for snack, nappies and wipes.  Parents are asked to supply own nappies and wipes, we do have these items in setting so please do not worry if you forget to send them for your child’s session.
