Childcare in West Molesey
West Molesey has 1 day nursery, 1 pre-school, 2 school nursery classes, 6 childminders and 1 after-school club. Ofsted has inspected 7 of them, and rated every one Good or better, 1 of them Outstanding. 4 have never been inspected, which usually means recently registered. Across Surrey there are 40 places per 100 children under five, better supplied than England as a whole at 32.
Places per 100 under-fives is registered capacity at nurseries, pre-schools and childminders across Surrey, divided by the children aged 0 to 4 who live there at the 2021 Census. It compares areas; it is not a count of free places today. It also leaves out the 184 school nursery classes across Surrey, because nobody publishes how many children they take.
