Question 1

How will the nursery fees be paid when a parent starts salary exchanging?

Accepted Answer

Nurseries will continue to invoice their parents as usual, but payments will now come from YellowNest according to the employee’s fee schedule. If salary exchange doesn’t cover the full nursery invoice, it will be the parent’s responsibility to top up what is outstanding directly to their nursery. With overpayments, a credit will form and sit with the parent’s nursery, which can be used towards future childcare needs and is not refundable.

Question 2

How much extra funding do nursery partners receive?

Accepted Answer

Nurseries receive an uncapped amount of additional funding when partnering with YellowNest. The funding comes from the parent’s employer’s National Insurance savings and works out to be hundreds or sometimes thousands of pounds extra on top of the normal fee payments.

Question 3

What can the extra funding be spent on?

Accepted Answer

The extra funds can be put towards anything that helps improve the provision of care - e.g. nursery staff training, additional resources and general upkeep of the facilities.
