Funded childcare
Partou Habergham Day Nursery & Pre-School is proud to offer funded childcare places
Funded childcare is a government incentive fulfilled by Local Authorities which aims to provide financial support for eligible families accessing childcare at an OFSTED registered setting. Partou Habergham Day Nursery & Pre-School work with Lancashire Local Authority to apply childcare funding for eligible families.
Funding typically covers 15 or 30 hours per week for the 38 term weeks of the year across a maximum of 10 hours a day which will be applied in different ways depending how many weeks of the year your child is in childcare:
- Children who are in year-round childcare will receive “stretched” funding. This means that their 15/30 hours over 38 weeks will be stretched over 51 weeks of the year so children accessing year round childcare at Partou Habergham will receive 11.17/22.35 hours of funded childcare per week.
- Children who have term-time only childcare places will receive 15/30 hours funding per week over 38 weeks of the year. Term-time only places are limited and are subject to availability.
Government funding for childcare only applies to the care fee (as described above). Meals & snacks and consumables fees are fully chargeable for all sessions including funded.
Many families are eligible for government funded childcare, see our childcare funding guide for more information.

Amazing nursery! Brilliant staff, always go above and beyond. Our daughter loves going there and I couldn't have picked a better nursery for her. She has gone since being 9 months old and all of the staff are amazing with her. The manager is fantastic and the atmosphere when I drop her off and pick h...

Little People is such an amazing little nursery. A real home from home. My daughter first attended little people as a baby and progressed right through to preschool until the age of 4. Due to relocating, we left shortly after her 4th birthday, but we were sad to leave such a special place full of bea...

My son has been at Habergham since September and has come on leaps and bounds since starting there. The staff are fabulous and treat us like family, they are all such lovely people and even the people who don't directly look after him know him and welcome him into nursery each day. We have developed ...

Overall, I am happy with the nursery but what I will say is my child is only 4 and doesn't understand certain things if he's being naughty etc. some staff do lack patience any when looking after kids of this age you need patience.

Such a welcoming Nursery. The staff are fantastic and attentive. My child enjoys going here and always tries to tell me about her day. She loves singing the songs that she has sang at nursery during the day, she especially loves playing "What's in the Box" Highly recommend the nursery.

My son attended this nursery from April 2023 until this summer. I honestly can't fault the nursery, they formed a brilliant bond with my son and helped him with his confidence so much. Not only were they brilliant with our son but my husband and I felt the whole staff were very approachable with any ...

My daughter has been attending Little People of Habergham for just over a month now. I will start by saying that I couldn’t be happier, the staff are so kind, caring and very professional. The enrolment of my daughter was made so much easier in the application stage, this was due to a few individ...

My son has been attending this nursery since August 2021. During a very difficult time of lockdowns and pandemics. We were still made to feel welcome and at ease even with all the restrictions. Fast forward to now, our little boy has grown into a happy, sociable, funny, confident little lad with what...

My daughter has been going to Little People of Habergham Nursery for 18 months now. I saw several places before this as I was a very anxious 1st-time parent and I wanted somewhere my child could build great relationships with her carers and with the other children. I knew straight away that this was ...

My son has come on leaps and bounds at the nursery, the staff are very good with him and I feel they get to know him on a personal level always having time to discuss anything that is going on and supporting in family life. Food is always made fresh in the kitchen and activities are always set out in...

My little girl started here when she was 9 months old. I was very nervous to leave her but she settled in very quick. With that, I can only assume it's down to the staff members being very comforting towards her. She is now 16 months old and gets very excited when we arrive. She has such a good bond ...

Lisa and the team try to make it a home-from-home, and the fact it's not a huge nursery means this can be achieved. They don't do daily updates via an app with photos. I would have liked this but I do appreciate and respect the rationale why they don't - that it takes time from the children. However,...
