Funded childcare

Partou Playtime 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 Playtime Day Nursery & Pre-School work with Surrey 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 Playtime 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.

My granddaughter has really progressed in all areas of her development recently. She is now walking and saying a lot more. My granddaughter always looks so happy when I pick her up from nursery. She seems to have really settled into Mini Tots and gets along with everyone.

My son (now 4 years old ) has been attending Playtime Nursery since he was 1. He absolutely loves going to preschool. He can’t wait to see his friends and key workers. He's always so excited to show me what he’s learnt from preschool. Highest quality of care from management and key workers.

Our child continues to develop brilliantly whilst at Playtime Nursery, always happy to go and happy when we pick him up and talks about it when he’s not there. Very happy with Playtime (Shepperton) and looking forward to watching him develop further.

Why Partou?

For us at Partou, childcare isn’t just a job, it’s a journey – one where every child leads us in a unique new direction.

As part of the Netherlands’ largest childcare group, we’ve access to world-leading expertise in learning and development, so you can be confident your child will benefit from an experience as unique as they are.

Of course, care is as much about empathy as education, and ours is a child-led approach that emphasises building confidence and curiosity – so that every child in our care has the freedom to flourish.

Reassurance for you and your little one

We’re more than just a team; we’re a close community driven by our passion for childcare, and our commitment to each individual child’s development. We know that by working together, we’re stronger.

Compassion

In our community, compassion isn’t just a word; it’s our way of life. By embracing our differences, we make our community more diverse and vibrant. We build strong, supportive relationships with the children and each other, based on trust and understanding.

Continuous learning

We believe strongly in development, for the children in our care and for ourselves. Through continuous learning, we help our team and our children reach their full potential. Together, we make a positive impact, in our communities and across wider society.
