Welcome to Treehouse

A warm nursery where every day can become a discovery.

Treehouse is built around curiosity: giving children time to follow ideas, make choices and turn ordinary moments into meaningful learning.

Children are supported through child-led experiences, free-flow opportunities between indoors and outdoors and close relationships with practitioners who get to know what interests them.

01 Curiosity-led Children’s interests help shape experiences.
02 Free to explore Indoor and outdoor learning work together.
03 Known as individuals Relationships and family insight matter.
Explore Treehouse

Three rooms. Three gardens.
Plenty of room to explore.

Each of Treehouse’s three rooms has its own garden, so outdoor discovery can be part of everyday nursery life rather than something saved for special occasions.

Treehouse fees & funding

Clearer costs.
Fewer surprises.

Childcare fees can look complicated when funded hours, additional attendance and everyday nursery costs are all brought together.

Treehouse uses the Tiny Toez Stoke fee structure. Here's a simple overview before you use the calculator below to estimate your own weekly cost.

30
Funded hours Eligible working families

Eligible working parents can receive up to 30 funded hours from 9 months until their child starts school.

15
Universal entitlement All 3 & 4 year olds

All children aged 3 and 4 in England can access 15 funded hours, subject to the normal entitlement rules.

£2
Tax-Free Childcare Added for every £8

Eligible families can receive a government top-up towards approved childcare costs.

01 Funded childcare

Making your funded
hours work for you.

Eligible funded hours reduce the childcare hours you need to pay for.

15 or 30 funded-hour entitlements may apply

Funding can be combined with additional paid hours

Treehouse can explain how funding is applied to your pattern

Funded hours cover eligible childcare. Other nursery costs can still apply.
02 Everyday extras
Calculator estimate
£19.60 full day
£13.00 half day

These are the estimated meals, activities and consumables amounts used by the Treehouse calculator.

These are additional estimated nursery costs — not the total price of a full or half day.
03 Additional hours

More hours.
Lower hourly rate.

The Stoke fee structure uses a sliding hourly rate for childcare hours remaining after funding is applied.

From £15.15 reducing to £8.70/hr
The rate applied depends on the number of chargeable childcare hours in your weekly pattern.

A note about stretched funding

Government entitlements are normally quoted over 38 weeks. Where a stretched arrangement is available, fewer funded hours can be used each week across more weeks of the year. The calculator below uses the existing Tiny Toez Stoke stretched-hours assumptions when 15 or 30 funded hours are selected.

Your final quotation will always be confirmed by Treehouse based on your child's place and eligibility.
