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 Stoke-on-Trent
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Stoke-on-Trent 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 make exceptional progress in this excellent child-centred, language-rich environment. They adore attending this all-inclusive, nurturing nursery. Children create close bonds with staff, who offer excellent support and warmth. They are encouraged from a young age to develop independence.
Children as young as one year wash their hands and feed themselves. Older children confidently help themselves to plates and cutlery and confidently self-serve food and clear away. Children take great pride in helping others. Older children, when asked, 'What gets the job done,' recite together 'teamwork'.
Staff act as fantastic role models for sharing, turn-taking and respecting others.

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.
