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 Newham

What it is like to attend
Staff have close, strong relationships with children in this caring nursery. They take time to get to know each child well and use this information to help children to settle happily. For example, staff find out about babies' home care routines and include this in their practice which helps babies to feel secure. Children settle well.
Staff value each child highly and have high expectations of them. They manage children's behaviour successfully. For instance, staff share group rules with children and use a gentle and consistent approach. Children learn to take turns and to share well, for example, when they take turns during organised games. Children behave well.
The curriculum is broad and balanced and all children make good progress. Staff support children to gain good physical skills. For example, babies crawl through tunnels and climb up low platforms. Older children balance on planks and steer wheeled toys skilfully. Staff teach children good mathematical skills. For instance, children count fruit at snack time and sing counting songs. Staff teach children mathematical language to describe size, such as 'big' and 'small'. They help children to gain good understanding of the world. For example, staff teach children about different types of weather and the days of the week. They plant onions and potatoes with children and teach them how things grow.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- give children more time to think and respond to questions to support their thinking skills further.

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.
