£50 for 11 hour day. Does this seem right? Thanks

It depends where in the country you are. That's about right round here in south Manchester. When we lived in London it was about £85-£100 a day and friends in north Manchester pay £40 a day

Yep, that's what I pay in the Midlands and what most local nurseries charge.

I think were paying about £42 for a long day, which was up to 12 hours. Typically our DS was there for 9-10 hours though, and he doesn't go at all any more.

That sounds extraordinarily cheap, if you like the place bite their hand off.

Where I live it's £42 ( baby room ) for an 11 hour nursery day. I think it's clear it varies a lot depending on what part of the country you are in.

Midlands here. Currently paying about £35 which I think is very cheap as it was about £50 in DSs previous two nurseries

I'm in SE London, we pay £60 for a full day (7.30-6.30 - although we only use 8-6) and this includes breakfast, hot lunch and hot 'tea' (served around 4pm, DS has something when he gets home on top of this) plus nappies & creams etc and formula when DS used to have it

That sounds reasonable for an 11 hour day. Here nurserys are around £60-£70 for 8am-6pm

So sorry for you all. I am in NZ and paid $24 for a 4-day week!

Jerry seriously?! Is that recent, and is it subsidised in some way?

Report
JerryFerry · 26/06/2016 22:22

Yes, heavily subsidised. Full rate would be $50 a day (this would be higher at a central city preschool as city rents are higher) but 3-5yos qualify for "20 hrs free" which isn't exactly accurate but does knock it down a lot, then there are further means-tested subsidies. A lot of parents pay no fees at all.
