Our fees & funding
At Learning Curves Nursery, we aim to make childcare as simple and flexible as possible for families. We offer a range of options, from full days to term-time and wraparound care, all designed to support your individual needs.
As part of our approach, we operate a minimum attendance of two days per week, helping us to provide consistency, routine and the very best experience for every child.
We also offer funded places for eligible 2-, 3- and 4-year-olds, and accept childcare vouchers and Tax-Free Childcare.
