Fees

Rainbow Angels Nurseries are private day nurseries and Nursery Fees, Breakfast Club Fees and Afterschool Club Fees are payable throughout the year by Standing Order or direct payment/bank transfer into the nursery’s bank account.  Standing Orders should be paid, monthly in advance by the 15th of each month. Fees are subject to the following conditions:

• •     a Standing Order should be set up by you for your monthly Fees

All Nursery Fees are inclusive of meals, snacks, formula milk, nappies, and wipes.  There is a charge for these items for children accessing a  free entitlement only place at the nursery. Healthy snacks are provided for children accessing Government Funded places and Afterschool  Clubs. Please speak to the Nursery Manager for further details.

Holiday Club Fees are to be paid in advance, at the time of booking and Fees are inclusive of a hot meal and healthy snacks. 

Government Funded Places

Government Funded places at Rainbow Angels Nurseries are limited to availability.  Eligible children may be entitled to 15 hours or 30 hours of free early years’ education that can be used across 51 weeks of the year.  Parents may choose where they wish to use this entitlement, whether with a single registered provider or a maximum of 2 providers in the same day.  Should a parent decide to use more than one registered provider the weekly-entitled hours shall be pro-rata between the providers.

Attendance for a Government Funded place for your child is set out in the nursery’s offer to you and fits in with the nursery’s planned sessions and times.  

Rainbow Angels Nursery will submit the claim form for the free hours and parents must provide all information required by the nursery for completion of the claim form.

Should you accept a place at the nursery that is part Government funded, the Government Fund hours will be deducted from your monthly sessions and the balance of the Nursery Fees for the remaining sessions will be payable in keeping with our Nursery Fees terms and conditions. 

Healthy snacks are provided for purely Government Funded places taken up.  Parents pay for main meals.
