Where this came from
The outlined line is the one the price was taken from.

Funded hours
9month -24month funding, 2years-3years funding and 3years-5years funding.
Worth knowing. Funding covers sessions in Term Time Only, this is covered for 38 weeks of the year. We do not offer stretched funding. If you wish for your child to attend all year round then page 1 Schedule of fees will apply on non-term dates. Fixed Times – Our hours are set as above for funded hours, no hours can be 'banked' and used on separate days or swapped for an additional day.
What childcare usually costs in Gloucestershire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Gloucestershire 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 Jelly Bears Day Nursery
- Youngest age taken
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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Is £68.54 a day still the rate? 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.
- Is there a place for my child's age? 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.
