Our Transparent process

Nursery admissions should not feel like navigating a maze. At Snowflakes, our admissions process follows a clear, transparent path from your first enquiry through to your child’s settled first week in all our settings across Southall, Hanwell, Norwood Green, and Northolt. We have someone on hand at each of our four settings who is happy to guide you, explain every cost upfront, and never surprise you with hidden fees.

Fees And Funding:
What is included

Our all-inclusive fee structure means the price we quote includes everything fresh meals, nappies, sun cream, and all learning materials. We don't charge top-up fees for government-funded hours or "consumables" invoices.
‍
The only additional costs are the £50 registration fee and £250 refundable deposit.

Our fees page provides the complete breakdown: session rates by age, the registration and deposit requirements, sibling discounts, and exactly what "all-inclusive" covers.
‍
You'll find our policy on late collection charges, our four-week notice period for changes, and how our 5% sibling discount works for families with multiple children attending the same sessions.
Transparency means everything is documented, not hidden in footnotes.

Easy Walkthrough:
From Enquiry To Enrolment

The Snowflakes admissions process follows six clear steps.

‍Step 1: Enquiry. You will have questions and we will be able to answer them. You can contact us by phone or through our website form.

  • We answer your initial questions and offer a viewing at your preferred branch.

‍ Step 2: Viewing. You visit the nursery during our morning or afternoon Work Cycles, between 10:30 am - 11:00 am or 2:45 pm - 3:00pm.

  • This is a chance to see how the babies spend their time with us, or to see toddlers' and preschoolers’ daily learning in action.
  • You meet the team, visit the rooms, and ask everything you need to ask.

‍Step 3: Application. If you decide we’re right for your family, you are welcome to complete our registration form on the day, or take some time to consider your options and return later.

  • You can provide your preferred start date and specific session requirements if you wish.

‍Step 4: Registration Fee. We charge a £30 registration fee, confirming your application is being processed. (Our fee is non-refundable; you will be informed if there is a waiting list before you pay this fee.)

‍Step 5: Deposit & Confirmation. Once we confirm a place is available, you pay a £250 deposit (refundable when your child leaves, provided you give 4 weeks’ notice).

  • Your child’s place is now secured.

‍Step 6: Settling-In. Before your child’s official start date, we arrange settling-in sessions tailored to their needs, helping to build the bond with their Key Person while you’re still nearby.

  • We follow your child's lead, adapting each session based on how comfortable they seem.

Calculate Your Costs: Our Funding Tool

The Snowflakes funding calculator estimates your actual weekly cost after government entitlements are applied. You enter your child's age, your working status, and your preferred sessions and the calculator shows what you'll pay.
‍
This tool accounts for 15-hour universal funding, 30-hour extended funding, and Tax-Free Childcare contributions. It shows the difference between term-time and stretched funding options, so you can choose what works for your family's schedule and budget.

Reviews of happy parents
"This nursery is an absolutely exceptional place, full of warmth, understanding, and truly amazing people. From the very first day, I knew my son was in good hands — I never felt afraid or unsure about leaving him there.
‍
The entire staff — from the teachers to the support team — shows incredible patience, kindness, and a truly individual approach to every child. That meant the world to us, because my son has special needs. Thanks to the care and support he received, he has changed so much for the better — he opened up, learned so much, and gained confidence.
‍
Enrolling him here was the best decision I could have made as a parent. I always felt supported, never alone, and knew we could count on help and understanding at every step.
‍
This nursery is not just a place of education — it's a loving, supportive community.
We are deeply grateful for everything!"

"As a parent entrusting my child to a day nursery, Snowflakes are excellent. There is a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff's genuine care and dedication to the children are clear in every interaction. The facilities at Snowflakes are top-notch, providing a safe and stimulating environment for children to learn and play.

The daily activities are thoughtfully planned with structured learning and free play. Communication with parents is excellent, with regular updates on our child's progress and well-being."
