Childcare Funding

We know how demanding life (and parenting!) can be, so, at Gymfinity Kids, we think signing up to a nursery should be as easy as 123!

A one-off registration fee is the first step to becoming part of our family. This guarantees your child’s nursery place and includes all the settling sessions your child (and you) may need. Plus, we even provide you with your child’s nursery uniform including a short-sleeved polo shirt, jumper, backpack and water bottle.
We get your child booked in for the sessions you need. Each month you receive a monthly invoice, and your payment will be taken by direct debit automatically on the 1st of each month. Plus – It’s all included in the fee! We provide everything your child will need whilst they are with us. We have food, toys, nappies, milk, and other essentials.
We can help guide you through your funding entitlement process (because we know how confusing this can be to set up!)

Part Funded

We know that covering the cost of childcare isn’t always easy, so we’re really pleased to say we offer the universal 15 hours of funding as well as the 30 hours of nursery funding for children aged 3years on a stretched basis. We stretch our funding as we are open all year round. Remember – the number of day-care sessions will affect the amount of funding available to claim.
If your child is entitled to 30 hours of funded childcare, you must have applied for your code and discussed your requirements with your Nursery Manager ahead of your settling in sessions. You can find out more about the funding at childcarechoices.gov.uk or call the government’s Childcare Service Helpline on 0300 123 4097.

Testimonials

The support provided by the nursery has been extraordinary. The educators’ dedication, patience and expertise have played a vital role in my son’s growth. They go above and beyond, nurturing his curiosity and encouraging his interests. Their open communication keeps me involved in his journey.

I am grateful to the entire team for creating a nurturing environment that positively influenced my son’s early years. Their genuine care and passion for education shine through.

My child has always loved it here, he has blossomed into a bright intelligent little boy as the staff here are so helpful with his education and needs. He always comes back from nursery happy and chatty about his day, I do not have one bad word for the staff, facilities and nursery as a whole, would not hesitate to tell friends and family to send their children here.
