Curious to know how much do you pay/ does your nursery charge for a full time place? Does 950 a month sound reasonable?

Depends where you are

That is standard in the south east and some are higher

Depends where you are in the country, I guess? For 8-6 care round our way it would cost £1,100-£1,200 per calendar month, so £950 sounds good to me!

The nursery I use (Scotland) is £150 a week for a full time space, thats for an over 2 space.

Mine is £800 a month and we are in the North West

WE pay £800 (£799 to be precise) for a 3 day place in the North West. A full time place is just less than £1300. I think £950 is therefore very reasonable!

Depends on location - I'm in London and pay £1,100 per month for a full time place for an under 2 - its the going rate for round here

Also depends what it includes. Some fees are all inclusive, some will ask you to bring in nappies and maybe even food for a very young child. It also depends on the age of your child - the 15 hours free each week for 3-4 year olds cuts the price a bit. Some charge extra for early and late add on sessions.

Basically in my town a nursery place could cost anything from about £700 to £1200 a month depending on age/what is included/extra sessions.

Contact some other nurseries near you and ask them what they charge and what it includes. It sounds about right to me, but theres a lot of variables in price.

You need to break it into an hourly rate tbh and also what it includes.

Our one is about £1000 per month for full time. We're in the South East.

mine is £480 a month for 3.5 days a week (8-6 on the full days) includes all meals but not nappies. I think I'm lucky though as it is AMAZING and very cheap (Derbyshire). I believe a full time place is £120 a week
