Fees and Funding

When joining Little Beehive Nursery, we will ask you to create a regular Booking pattern, something you will use week in week out.

This can be anything from, 2 mornings a week, to a full week. we can work with you to find the sessions that suit both you and your little one.

Once we have agreed what sessions you will be joining us, we can then move on to what invocing style you would like, annulised, or actual. 

(We also offer ad-hoc, so if you dont know what you will need to use week on week, you can book sessions as you go. you can book upto two weeks in advance and payment must be made prior to attendance. all sessions are subject to availability.) 

Actual invoicing is when you pay what you use every month, some months may be cheaper and some months more expensive depending on how many sessions you have used during the month. February for example, is usually cheaper due to less days in the month.

Annulised invoicing is where we take your regular pattern and calculate the cost for the entire year (365 days) and then split the cost in 12 even invoices. each month you will receive the same charge (unless extra sessions are booked). This is a great way for you to know exactly how much you are due every month. 

After agreeing your monthly invoice, we ask the first invoice is to be paid before starting with us.

After this, through our Famly app, you can set up a Direct Debit. 

Once all of this has been set up, you are good to go!

If you don't wish to set up a direct debit, our bank details can be found on the invoices and we accept payment in the nursery too.
