Frequently Asked Questions
In Stoke Newington, private nurseries typically accept children from around 3 months old. Funded early education begins the term after a child’s 3rd birthday, with some younger children eligible earlier depending on family circumstances or working-parent criteria.
In England, all 3 and 4-year-olds can receive 15 hours of funded early education per week during term time, with many working families eligible for up to 30 hours. There is also funded support for some 2-year-olds based on household circumstances, and entitlement for working parents of children from 9 months old to receive 30 hours per week for eligible families.
