Non-Funded Hourly Rate from January 2026 All Ages from £8.75
One published rate. What you pay depends on the days you need and the funded hours you can claim.
Funded hours
Early Years Funding for eligible children from 9 months old (15 hours), 2 year olds (15 hours) and all 3 & 4 year olds (15 or 30 hours).
Worth knowing. Funded hours can be used within core hours only (9:00am - 3:00pm). Consumables and Extras: £1.25 per funded hour (opt-in).
What childcare usually costs in Suffolk
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Suffolk 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 Little Oaks Playschool
- Nappies
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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £8.75 an hour 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.
- 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.
