What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
All Day Session (07.30 – 17.45*) · £81.00
One published rate, dated September 2026. What you pay depends on the days you need and the funded hours you can claim.
Funded hours
Somerset Early Years Entitlement: 570 hours per year for eligible families of children aged 9 months to 5 years; a further 570 hours for qualifying families; maximum 15 or 30 hours per week.
Worth knowing. Funding does not cover meals, snacks, or specialist activities (swimming, music, language, dance, PE); these are part of the Taunton School Nursery Exceptional package with additional voluntary charges.
What childcare usually costs in Somerset
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Somerset 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 Taunton Preparatory School
- 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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Is £81.00 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.
