Helpful answers
Nursery questions in Ruislip
Are nursery places available in Ruislip?
Hillingdon's latest childcare assessment does not identify Ruislip ward as a priority shortage area for funded places for 3 and 4 year olds.
However, South Ruislip is one of 5 Hillingdon wards projected to have a deficit of funded places for 3 and 4 year olds.
If you need childcare in South Ruislip, check availability early rather than assuming places elsewhere in Ruislip reflect your local supply.
Can working parents get 30 funded hours in Ruislip?
Yes. Eligible working parents can receive 30 funded hours a week from the term after their child turns 9 months until school age.
The entitlement provides up to 1,140 funded hours a year, normally over 38 weeks.
Some Ruislip nurseries stretch the same annual hours across more weeks.
Does every Ruislip nursery offer 30 funded hours?
No.
Across Hillingdon, 86% of primary and infant schools providing early years places were offering the extended entitlement in the council's latest assessment.
Private nurseries and childminders also decide which funded entitlements they offer.
Confirm that your chosen Ruislip nursery accepts your funding before joining its waiting list.
Can my child get SEND funding without an EHCP in Ruislip?
Yes.
Hillingdon's Early Years SEN Inclusion Fund supports eligible children from the term after they turn 9 months who have SEND and attend an Ofsted registered Hillingdon provider offering funded places.
Children who already have an EHCP are not eligible for SEN Inclusion Funding, because their additional provision is funded through the EHCP.
What can Hillingdon SEN Inclusion Funding pay for?
A Ruislip nursery can use SEN Inclusion Funding for:
Additional staff support
Specialist resources
Staff training
Support matched to the child's individual needs
The childcare provider applies for the funding.
Is there a Family Hub near Ruislip?
Yes. South Ruislip Family Hub is at The Wren, Queens Walk, South Ruislip, HA4 0LR.
It supports families with children aged 0 to 5 and is open 8.45 am to 4 pm, Monday to Friday.
What if my preschool child has SEND but is not attending nursery regularly?
Hillingdon's Portage Service supports children aged 0 to 5 with delays in more than one area of development who are not regularly attending nursery or school.
Support normally includes fortnightly home visits, groups and remote appointments.
Parents cannot self refer. A professional working with the family must make the referral.
What should I confirm before accepting a Ruislip nursery place?
Confirm the start date, exact weekdays, funded session times, final monthly cost and any SEND support needed.
If you are looking in South Ruislip, ask about availability particularly early because Hillingdon has identified pressure on funded places for 3 and 4 year olds.
