  • At Saplings we ask for a £50 deposit to secure your child’s place at Saplings.
  • This is a non-refundable registration fee; this is required upon completion of the registration to secure your child’s placement in care. This also covers your child’s settling-in visits.
  • Spaces will not be held unless the deposit fee is paid in full. This deposit shows your intention to take up a childcare place for your child.

Sibling discount

A 5% discount is given for the oldest sibling attending the Pre-School. Both of the siblings need to pay to get the discount. If they funded, the sibling discount doesn't apply.

Late pickup charge

A late pick-up fee is charged at £10 for every 10 minutes. This will be added to your childcare invoice in the following month.

Payment Due date

Payments are due 30 days after receiving the invoice. The late payment penalty charge will be 5% of the unpaid amount.

Additional days or Holiday Club

Additional sessions or days may be booked, subject to availability, in addition to your child's contracted schedule. Please note that swapping contracted days is not permitted. Invoices for additional sessions or days will be issued during the month. If you need to cancel additional bookings, a minimum of 72 hours notice is required; otherwise, the full fee will be charged.

School Closure

As extreme weather conditions are out of our control and are uninsurable, we regret that Saplings are unable to refund fees or offer alternative childcare days.
