Fees and Funding
Registration & Fees
If you wish to register at one of our nurseries, simply complete our registration form and return it to the Manager of your chosen nursery along with a £25.00 (non – refundable) registration fee.
We do not require you to book a minimum number of sessions per week. After all, you know what is going to work best for you and your child. However, we advise that your child attends at least twice a week to give them continuity and to help them feel settled in their surroundings.
Once a place has been allocated, a deposit of £80.00 is required to secure your child’s place with us. This deposit is refunded when your child leaves the nursery, providing all terms and conditions have been complied with.
The deposit is non-refundable if the child doesn’t start at the nursery.
All Inclusive Fees
Our fees are all inclusive. We provide everything your child will need whilst they are with us including nappies, wipe, milk, snacks and meals. Fees are invoiced monthly in advance.

At Bluebell Children's Nurseries, we 'stretch' the funding across the 51 weeks a year that we are open.
We offer a limited number of 'fully funded' places. Places are allocated termly on a first come first served basis. These hours are during term time only and session times are 8:30-11:30am and 1-4pm.
