What it costs

Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.

£72.00 a day6 months - 2 years old
· Full Day 8am – 4pm £72

One published rate, dated 1 st June 2026. What you pay depends on the days you need and the funded hours you can claim.

Funded hours

15 hours of funding for eligible working families and families that receive additional forms of support from the age of 2 years; 30 hour childcare for eligible working families for children aged 9 months to four years old (From September 2025); EYEE funding the term after they turn 3 years old.

Worth knowing. Funding can be taken between the hours of 8.00am – 3.00pm Monday – Friday. Anything over and above this entitlement will be charged at our normal rate. Once the funding allowance per week has been used, fees will be chargeable to the nearest 15 minutes at £9 per hour.

What childcare usually costs in East Sussex

£6.50an hour, typical for a 2 years old
£6.30an hour, typical for a 3 and 4 years old

This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in East Sussex from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

£72.00 a day is about the same as the East Sussex median of £6.30 an hour. A ten-hour day at the median would come to about £63. The median covers every provider in the council, including childminders, so a nursery sitting above it is normal.

Before you ring

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £72.00 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.
  • 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.
