Childcare

Nursery facilities

Helpful websites for finding care for young children are DISC: Devon's Family Infomation Service or Cornwall's Family Information Service.

The University’s Family Centre on Streatham Campus caters for children from birth to 5 years of age, although places are limited.

Woodlane Nursery in Falmouth provides students and staff with high quality childcare and education for children aged 1 to 8 years. The Nursery is very popular and can have a long waiting list.

Salary sacrifice arrangements for the provision of childcare vouchers

The University has made arrangements to participate in a scheme which enables employees to purchase, via a salary sacrifice arrangement approved by HM Revenue & Customs, childcare vouchers of up to £55* per week (£243* per calendar month) without paying tax or National Insurance Contributions on this sum. Please see the Childcare Vouchers pages for more details.
