SourceNational rules for England from September 2025: gov.uk (working parents, 2 years, 3 and 4 years).
- Nurseries may charge for meals, nappies and activities on funded hours; those charges are not in the figures here.
| Age | Funded hours | Who |
|---|---|---|
| Under 9 months | None | Every family pays the full fee. |
| 9 months to 2 years | Up to 30 hours a week, 38 weeks a year | Working parents (gov.uk) |
| 2 years | Up to 30 hours a week if you work; 15 hours if you get certain support | Working parents, or families on some benefits (gov.uk) |
| 3 and 4 years, until Reception | 15 hours a week for every child; up to 30 for working parents | Everyone (gov.uk) |
Hours start the term after your child reaches the age: terms start on 1 September, 1 January and 1 April. 30 hours a week for 38 weeks is 1,140 hours a year, and many nurseries spread them over more weeks. Working parents apply on gov.uk for a code and reconfirm it every three months. Key dates works out when your child's hours start.
