Angmering Day Nursery
OutstandingBirth to 5Long established
A day nursery in Littlehampton for children from birth to 5, open 08:00 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in January 2024. Open since 2016, with 30 places.
What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in West Sussex
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in West Sussex from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What it is like to attend
Children thrive and receive exemplary care and education at this home-from-home nursery. The dedicated staff demonstrate close and meaningful relationships with children. They warmly welcome children inside and engage in conversations about the day ahead. Children beam with delight as their friends greet them with waves and cuddles. They confidently self-register and put away their belongings independently.
Staff and managers have high expectations for children's behaviour. They display a
'Promise Tree' to recognise children's positive actions and achievements. For example, when children demonstrate good sharing, turn taking or learning, staff sit with the children to discuss it as a group. Children are proud of their own and their friends' accomplishments. They cheerily applaud and celebrate together.

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.
