How does the workplace nursery benefit help your nursery?
When parents at your nursery have employers offering the workplace nursery benefit, those employers save on National Insurance. We direct a portion of those savings straight to you as guaranteed investment for improvements.
This means predictable funding for equipment, training, and facilities—without competitive grant applications or fundraising.

How the calculation works
When parents use the workplace nursery benefit, their employer saves approximately 15% of the salary sacrifice amount in National Insurance. We pass 58% of that saving directly to you as investment for improvements.
As more families join
Your investment grows with each new family. Many nurseries fund significant equipment purchases, outdoor improvements, or staff training programmes within their first year.
Strategic spending guidance
Our OFSTED analysis tools help you prioritise spending on improvements that will have the greatest impact on children's outcomes and your inspection rating.
