If you decide to place your child with me, there are a few neccessary forms for you to complete. These will be emailed to you to complete and send back to me before the the settling in sessions, of wich we usually do 2. There will then be a 4 week trial period which gives us both a chance to see if the placement is right for your child. During this time there will be no notice period if things don't work out. After this a contract will be signed and the notice period will be 4 weeks. Payments are made monthly in advance by BACS and invoices are sent on the last Friday of each month. I accept tax free childcare, universal credits, student finance, childcare vouchers as well as 15/30 hour free childcare (please see fees section for more information). If you are planning your childcare for when you return to work after maternity leave, it is important to bear in mind that I can only take 1 child under the age of 1 so places will be secured on a first come first served basis.
