FUNDING ELIGIBILITY AND CODES

It is the bill payer’s responsibility to ensure that you are eligible for funding, failure to do so could result in full fees being invoiced until you become eligible.

Funding codes must be supplied to us in a timely manner when requested prior to invoicing. You will be required to update your code eligibility on the childcare choices website every three months. Failure to do so could result in becoming non-eligible and being charged full fees.

​

TERM-TIME

QUARTERLY SAVINGS

LATE FEES

Late collection of children will cost £15 for every 15 minutes. Children cannot be left at the nursery after 7pm as this contravenes our insurance. Should your child not be collected by 7pm a further additional fee of £50 will be charged. If your child is collected late twice in one month the late collection fee will double to £30 for every 15 minutes.

LATE PAYMENTS

You must pay us the interest together with the overdue amount. In addition, we are entitled to recover from the sum of £50 to cover our administrative fee. 

The Butterfly Patch will consider no additional sessions if there is any outstanding debt on the account and if an invoice has not been received by a parent, then it is your responsibility to bring this to the attention of the Butterfly Patch Accounts or Manager. 

We reserve the right to suspend your childs place until payment is received in full, fees during suspension are still payable and notice periods still apply.
