Our Stretched Offer

The Government offer 30 funded hours a week for 38 weeks of the year – totalling 1140 free hours per year. At Little Lambs, we are open for 50 weeks of the year, so the funding is stretched and you will receive 22.8 hours a week funded for 50 weeks. Please note that our fees are annualised over 50 weeks of care and are spread evenly across 12 monthly payments. This ensures consistent payments throughout the year, regardless of variations in the number of days per month.
