A pre-school in Leighton Buzzard for babies from 9 months up to school age, open 07:45 to 16:30, 5 days a week. They take the funded hours. They do not publish prices, so ask. Ofsted has not yet published a graded inspection. Open since 2024, with 29 places.
What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
Funded hours
The Time for Twos project provides funding for up to 15 hours of free funded childcare education for eligible two year olds. All 3 to 4-year-olds in England can get 570 hours of free funded early education or childcare per year. This is usually taken as 15 hours each week for 38 weeks of the year. Buttons are also pleased to offer the 30 hour extended funding to eligible families, this can be spli.
Worth knowing. Funding can be used flexibly, between the preschool hours additional fees are required for the wrapround outside of free funded eligablity.
What childcare usually costs in Buckinghamshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Buckinghamshire from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

Still missing for Buttons@Cheddington
- What it costs
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
