Baby Acorns
Not yet inspectedTakes funded hoursBirth to 5Newly opened
A pre-school in Bishop Auckland for from 2 years up to 5 year olds, open 08:00 to 15:30, 5 days a week. They take the funded hours. They do not publish prices, so ask. Ofsted has not yet published a graded inspection. Open since 2026, with 6 places.
What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
Funded hours
Generally, children access 15 or 30 funded hours.
Worth knowing. Please note that lunchtime supervision is not included in funded hours, and therefore charged for.
Places, hours and the day

Still missing for Baby Acorns
- What it costs
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
