Fees

Golden Owls Day Nursery fees are set at a competitive level in order to maintain a sustainable and well equipped nursery setting. From September 2025 – August 2026, we will charge a sessional rate of £49.50 and a standard daily rate of £99.00 for all children. Please note fees are reviewed annually, usually in September and are subject to change, please see our website for up to date fee rates. Funded places will not be charged for unless additional hours are required.  We offer a 10% discount on fees for siblings who attend Golden Owls Day Nursery.

Fees are due monthly in advance and are calculated on a calendar month basis. Payment should be made within 7 days of receipt of invoice. Fees can be paid via bank transfer or childcare vouchers/tax free childcare. Each invoice clearly states our bank account details so a bank transfer can be set up, please check these details carefully. You may also be able to access childcare vouchers through your employer and these can be used as part or full payment of fees. The Government offer a Tax Free Childcare Account, we are registered with Goldsworth Primary School (Ofsted 137850) so if you would like to make payments via the Tax Free Account please choose Goldsworth Primary School from the list and let us know your payment reference. Each months invoice is due within 7 days of receipt.

Please note that our staff, our biggest cost, are paid annual salaries, this means that there is no reduction in fees where a child is absent due to illness, sickness, holiday or extended breaks abroad.

Late Collection Fee

If a child is not collected before the standard finish time of a session, we reserve the right to charge a late collection fee of £10 per 15 minutes until the child is collected. Late collection charges are due for payment by bank transfer immediately.

Late Payment Fee

Each months invoice has a specific date when payment is due. Golden Owls Day Nursery reserves the right to charge a late payment charge of £10 per day (including weekends) until the fees are paid in full.
