With news about price rises continuing to affect our day to day lives, there’s no doubt we’re all feeling the pinch when it comes to the cost of living. As a collective, it is now more important than ever to find ways to optimise our spending and make sure that we make the most of the savings available for our essential services and purchases.
But with childcare potentially accounting for one of the largest outgoings for some parents, how can you balance high quality childcare with tight monthly budgets?
We’ve pulled together a few ways to help make childcare more manageable over the course of 2024.
For those in the know, planning ahead can mean big savings when it comes to taking advantage of early bird pricing when securing your desired camp place.
At Camp Beaumont, our pricing is based on camp availability – meaning the earlier you book, the more you save! Forward planning your childcare with Camp Beaumont not only helps save money but can provide peace of mind for upcoming school holiday periods.
You can save big when you book in advance in 2024 with the launch of our new Book Early & Save initiative - for those super advanced bookings, you can secure rates as low as £40 per day when you book a full week. An offer not to miss - check out our new payment products below to help you maintain flexibility on your bookings.
Additionally, by booking early and taking advantage of our earlier rates, you can not only save on total costs but you can really make the most of our payment options to ensure that securing your childcare works for you and any changes in plans that might arise.
Make sure that you snap up Book Early and Save rates as well as early booking prices and keep an eye on our social channels for key dates!
Did you know that when you book a week with us instead of individual days during school holidays, that you qualify for a further discount on your childcare options? Save £5 a day when you book a full week at our day camps and make the most of your time and your money. More fun, more days, less spend.
As part of a government scheme, some parents can get up to £500 every 3 months for each child to help with the cost of childcare. This is to be used towards approved childcare including childminders, after school clubs and play schemes – including Camp Beaumont day camps.
Camp Beaumont accepts a wide range of Tax Free Childcare Vouchers, which can be used across all our locations and seasons. Using tax-free childcare vouchers is just another way that helps alleviate costs without compromising on quality and reliable childcare throughout the school holidays.
As the last few years have proved, we never really know what’s around the corner and it’s more important than ever to ensure we look after our pennies – especially when plans can change suddenly.
As well as a variety of optional extras available to add-on, we also now offer FLEX options for additional peace of mind. Our insurance options are market leading and starting at just £4. This means that you can take full advantage of our Book Early & Save initiatives, and locking in those early rates with the flexibility to move your booking if plans change.
Additionally, Klarna is now available at checkout so booking early has never been easier!
Camp Beaumont is growing - and growing fast! So sometimes it pays to check out one of our newer sites and see if we're running any introductory offers on our brand new locations. In 2024, we are looking to welcome even more locations to the Camp Beaumont family. Keep your eyes peeled on our social channels for more updates!
Although we are facing unprecedented times, quality childcare rightly remains a top priority for parents across the UK. As discussed, there are a number of ways we can help with budgets when it comes to childcare options throughout the school holidays that makes things a little easier.
From comparing local options to making the most of early bird pricing, small changes can really start adding-up into huge savings without compromising on quality and reliable childcare.
