£7.50 for 3 hours. (Gloucestershire though, so maybe cheaper than London, for example!)

happyhorse · 12/07/2011 21:57

3hrs = £10
south east but outside London

£9.50 per hour (but reduced when they are entitled to the 3 / 4 yr old govt funding

GwendolineMaryLacey · 14/07/2011 14:27

£13 something, Surrey. £1 now with the funding.

Runoutofideas · 14/07/2011 17:34

about £7.50 per hour

ours is £8 for 3 hours. Ours is community run so at cost, I'd be surprised if there were many cheaper than that! It's certainly the cheapest in the area.

LaWeasleyAintWeaselyAnymore · 14/07/2011 17:53

Having said that I'm still shocked at £9.50 per hour! That's so much...

tudorrose · 14/07/2011 17:55

£8 for two and a half hours. But now free as DD3 is 3.

Clayhead · 14/07/2011 17:58

£11.85, free once they are funded as the Early Years Education Grant stipulates the sessions must be free at the point of delivery.

2anddone · 14/07/2011 18:09

£7.80 for 3 hours or £15.60 for 9-3 depending on the sessions you can get the equivalent of 2 full and 1 half day free when funded

MrsJohnDeere · 14/07/2011 18:18

£9 per 3 hour session (Herts)

hels71 · 14/07/2011 21:29

My DD is at two preschools before funding one was £10 for 3 hours and the other £12. This is in the south west.

planestrainsautomobiles · 17/07/2011 22:21

Yes £9.50 does sound quite pricey looking at the other posts, I just compared it to the price my friends pay for a day nursery and so thought it was fairly average. We are currently in SW London and it is a sought-after pre-school, which has a huge waiting list.

I shall not be mentioning this thread to DH, he thinks we pay an average amount.

HumperdinkFangboner · 21/07/2011 20:42

£10 - I.O.W.

whatcanbemynewname · 07/08/2011 12:49

we run at 4 pounds a session for 2 hours 15 mins.

mnistooaddictive · 10/08/2011 08:02

£3.75 per hour in Wiltshire.

extremepie · 20/08/2011 10:29

From what I remember at the nurseries I have visited it's about £22 for a 3 hour session (Watford)
