π£ Please Support Nurseries π£
Many nurseries are already under extreme financial pressure. From April 2026, changes to business rates are expected to lead to increases of over 65 percent for some early years settings. This is simply not sustainable and risks forcing nurseries to reduce services or close altogether.
Nurseries are essential educational settings, yet unlike schools, we are still treated as commercial businesses when it comes to business rates.
There is a UK Parliament petition calling on the government to stop charging nurseries business rates and recognise early years as education.
π Please sign and share the petition here:

Every signature helps protect nurseries, staff and the children and families who rely on them. Thank you for standing with early years π
Petition: Stop Charging Early Years Nurseries Full Business Rates
1) Classify nurseries as educational providers β not commercial premises 2) Exempt nurseries from business rates (like schools and academies)

A top tip when having a tour of a nursery for the first time is to take with you a list of questions.
What do you need from them?
Some examples are;
β€οΈ What days and hours do you need to be able to do drop-offs and pickups?
β€οΈ Does your child have a special diet that needs accommodating?
β€οΈ What is important to you for your child?
