Three simple steps to securing your place at Tiggers Nursery (Putney)

Step 2

A team member will reach out to share more information, answer any of your questions and arrange a tour (if you wish). You’ll have a chance to discuss availabilities and potential dates and start dates.
Step 3

Deposit

Government Funding - Early Years Childcare Support
Full details can be obtained when you register your interest and receive our information pack.
Whilst the Government funding is structured for 38 weeks of the year (term time), our places are for 50 weeks of the year and so the funding is 'stretched'. We stretch this over 11 months of the year - NO FUNDING is applied for the month of August.
Additional charges apply only to the portion of your place covered by funded hours, and are reflected in the monthly breakdown in our fee sheet. Any additional private days will be charged at our all-inclusive rates . Families receiving funding may choose to opt out of additional charges – please speak with our Admissions team for more information.
Families can assess their eligibility for funding and the application process by visiting the Better Start in Life website.
Termination
One full term’s written notice period is required to terminate your child’s place at Tiggers Nursery (Putney).
