Broadway Children's Centre Daycare
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Grimsby for children from birth to 8+, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in May 2024. Open since 2006, with 47 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 North East Lincolnshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in North East Lincolnshire from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend
Staff provide children with a very safe and caring learning environment. There is an effective key-person system in place. Children have positive relationships with all staff. They settle immediately. Staff provide support to children that are quiet. They offer them reassurance and encouragement to engage in activities. Staff provide safe spaces where children spend time with staff expressing their feelings. Children are extremely happy and content. Staff role model good behaviour. They listen to children and respect their views, and children copy this behaviour. From a young age, children share resources. They go and fetch resources so their friends can join in activities with them. Children tidy up before moving on to another activity. Their behaviour is good.
Staff implement a balanced curriculum. Their interactions with children are of a high quality. Staff are skilled in engaging in children's play and further developing their communication and language. For example, when children play in water with dinosaurs, staff teach children about what dinosaurs eat and the noises they make.
They talk about the different sizes. Staff use large expressive body movements and signs, modelling how dinosaurs move. Children copy and stomp. This enhances children's early language skills. Children learn rich new language, such as 'T-rex',
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to maximise opportunities for older children to develop the skills they need for their move on to school.

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.
