Discounts

Sibling discount
We offer a sibling fee discount for the eldest child already attending the nursery. Please contact the nursery for more information on the sibling discount.
Free early education entitlement (FEEE)
15 hours and 30 hours free

The nursery offers the free 15 hours for all children from the term after their 3rd Birthday (‘terms’ starting on 1st September 1st January and 1st April), provided that they are not also attending a local authority school nursery. We also offer 30 hours free for all children that are eligible. The 15/30 hours free childcare is provided for 38 weeks of the year. However we offer the free hours ‘stretched’ over the full year rather than the 38 weeks.

Parents/carers must contact HMRC to verify if they are entitled to 30 hours of free childcare using this link.

Recommendation discounts
When a parent or guardian is recommended to the nursery both the existing and new parent or guardian receive a discount!

If a parent viewing our nurseries mentions the current parents’ name, both parties will get a 5% discount on a whole month of fees. This offer is only available at certain nurseries, so please make sure you check during your enquiries.

Free settling in period
The settling in period is completely free of charge, which can be a saving of over £300. We want the family and the child to focus solely on the transition from home life to nursery to make it a joyful, exciting moment for all.
Childcare vouchers

If you have childcare vouchers, then we are able to take them as either part or full payment for your childcare.

These are a great way of paying for your child’s education, as they let you pay for care out of your pre-tax and National Insurance income, which can result in huge savings.

We are registered with most voucher companies but please check with your nursery manager.

Childcare tax credits

A large number of families are eligible for some financial assistance through Child Tax Credit and Working Tax Credit. The amount you receive will depend on your circumstances.

The factors considered are:

  • Household income
  • Single or couple
  • Number for children
  • Working hours
  • If you’ve got a disability

    Many people do not realise they are entitled to tax credits so it is worth checking, which you can do using the Government website here.

    You’ll need details of:

    • Your income
    • Your partner’s income
    • The average weekly amount you spend on childcare
    • Your working hours
    • Any benefits you’re claiming, or have just stopped claiming
      Savings on deposits
      Unlike many other nurseries, we only ask for £300 deposit. Yes, that’s it, no matter how many days your child attends. We understand paying the first months’ fees and a deposit of an equal amount can be a strain, so we have put this in place to try and help families with the initial costs.

      I am so happy that my daughter is at this nursery.

      I am so happy that my daughter is at this nursery. She has been so happy here since day one. Her days are fun filled and I really appreciate the weekly summary of what they got up to. A big positive for me is the huge outdoor space and the team here use it as best as possible. She has made lots of lovely little friends and she is very happy with her teachers too.

      The nursery has a really friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

      All the children have access to the big garden at different points throughout the day, and they have a wide range of quality and stimulating resources to play with indoors and outside, including a construction area, mud garden and water play area. I’m always amazed at the different activities they do as well. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Purple Jay!

      Staff are friendly and have a genuine interest in the children.

      Both my daughter and I have had a very positive experience at Purple Jay. The staff are very friendly and have a genuine interest in the children and their well being. Communication is very good, with staff providing answers to my questions soon after I contact them. My daughter is very comfortable approaching all staff members. I would recommend this nursery.
