Helpful answers
Nursery questions in Basingstoke
Which postcodes cover nurseries in Basingstoke?
Basingstoke is mainly covered by RG21, RG22, RG23 and RG24, extending from the town centre into residential areas on the west, north and east sides of the town.
How much funded childcare can Basingstoke families receive?
All 3 and 4 year olds can receive 15 funded hours a week. Eligible working families can receive up to 30 funded hours a week from 9 months old until school age, providing up to 1,140 funded hours during a standard funding year.
Can funded childcare cover some school holidays?
Yes, if the provider offers stretched funding. Hampshire gives an example of using just over 22 funded hours a week across 51 weeks instead of 30 hours across 38 weeks.
What if my working hours or employment change?
If you temporarily stop meeting the working parent eligibility rules, a grace period can allow an existing funded place to continue for a short time while your circumstances change.
Can my child start a new funded place while their code is in the grace period?
Normally not. Hampshire states that a child cannot start claiming the working families entitlement for the first time at a provider while the eligibility code is already in its grace period.
What nursery costs might still apply with funded hours?
Providers may charge separately for meals, nappies, sun cream and childcare beyond the funded hours. These additional costs are separate from the funded early education entitlement.
Can some 2 year olds receive 15 funded hours?
Yes. Some 2 year olds who meet the additional support criteria can receive funded early education even where their family does not qualify through the working parent entitlement.
What extra support can a Basingstoke nursery receive for a child with SEND?
Hampshire provides SEN Inclusion Funding for eligible children who need additional support in an early years setting. Eligible children receiving Disability Living Allowance can also attract £975 a year in Disability Access Fund during 2026 to 2027, paid to the provider to support access and inclusion.
