What childcare usually costs in Stoke-on-Trent

What it is like to attend
Children enjoy their time at this welcoming and friendly nursery. They happily separate from their parents on arrival and quickly settle into the familiar routines.
Children greet their friends and happily play together for long periods of time. They display high levels of perseverance and receive an abundance of praise and encouragement. Children's behaviour and attitudes to learning are exceptional.
Children are highly respectful to each other and staff. From a very young age, children develop an excellent awareness and understanding of their feelings and show real care and concern for others. For example, children remind each other to be careful when walking on the wet concrete outside because it will be slippery.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - provide staff with more detailed feedback after observing practice in order to strengthen the consistency of the already good teaching n support staff to strengthen the delivery of adult-led activities to focus teaching more precisely on the targeted learning intentions, to further support what children need to learn next.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
- Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
- Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
