Frequently asked questions
In Chiswick, children can usually start private nursery from around 3 months old. Funded early education begins the term after a child turns 3, with earlier eligibility for some 2-year-olds or working parents.
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. The exact offer and start dates depend on your child’s age, your work status and when their birthday falls in the school year.
