Helpful answers
Nursery questions in Winchester
Which postcodes cover nurseries in Winchester?
Winchester city addresses are mainly within SO22 and SO23. Surrounding villages can use other SO postcodes, so checking the full address is useful when comparing nearby childcare.
How much funded childcare can Winchester families receive?
All 3 and 4 year olds can receive up to 15 funded hours a week. Eligible working families can receive up to 30 funded hours a week from 9 months old until school age, equivalent to 1,140 hours across a standard funding year.
Can funded hours cover a full nursery day?
Yes, depending on the sessions offered by the provider. Hampshire allows funded childcare sessions of up to 10 hours in one day, between 6am and 8pm.
Can Winchester families spread funded hours across school holidays?
Potentially. Some providers offer stretched funding, allowing the same annual entitlement to be taken as fewer hours each week across more than 38 weeks and up to 52 weeks.
Can I switch from term time funding to stretched funding part way through a funding period?
Normally not. Hampshire requires the agreed funding pattern to remain in place during the funding period, so parents should check whether standard or stretched hours suit them before the arrangement begins.
Can some 2 year olds in Winchester receive 15 funded hours?
Yes. Eligible 2 year olds who meet the additional support criteria can receive up to 15 funded hours a week for 38 weeks, giving up to 570 funded hours during their eligible year.
Can I split funded childcare between a Winchester nursery and a childminder?
Yes. Hampshire allows families to use funded hours across more than one approved setting. A child can use funded childcare at no more than two settings in one day.
What extra nursery costs might I still have to pay?
A nursery may charge separately for additional hours, meals, outings or consumables such as nappies and sun cream. These costs sit outside the funded childcare entitlement and should be clear before the place is agreed.
What additional support is available if my child has SEND?
Hampshire provides SEN Inclusion Funding where a child needs significantly more support within an early years setting. Children receiving Disability Living Allowance and funded early education may also qualify for Disability Access Fund, which can help the setting make adjustments and improve access.
