Churchfields Day Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Bromsgrove 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 October 2024. Open since 2014, with 54 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 Worcestershire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Worcestershire 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 are happy and settled in this friendly and nurturing nursery. They are greeted warmly by the kind and caring staff. Staff make themselves readily available to give cuddles and comfort to children who find it more difficult to separate from their parents. This helps children to quickly settle in and develop their confidence to go and play with their peers.
Children benefit from a broad range of activities and experiences in their vibrant and well-planned learning environment. Babies enthusiastically explore splashing in gloop. They listen to sounds they make when banging different tools together. Twoyear-old children delight in playing outdoors. They carefully climb up onto boxes and balance to walk across a beam. Staff remain nearby to offer support and ensure their safety. Older children skilfully use scissors to cut around pictures from a magazine. They develop an understanding of their feelings and emotions as they are encouraged to choose pictures of things that make them happy.
Older children develop a sound understanding of the high expectations staff have for their behaviour and conduct. They are kind and respectful towards each other, and adults. Children say 'please' and 'thank you' without prompting. They are eager to gain recognition for their positive behaviours by collecting stars in their visual jar.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to embed the curriculum and provide children with consistently high levels of challenge to stretch and extend their learning further n build on the support for children's communication and language development.

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.
