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 Somerset
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in North Somerset 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
Staff provide a caring and supportive environment at this nursery. Children enjoy their time here and happily separate from their parents. Children have the freedom to choose what they want to do and confidently access the resources on offer.
Parents feel well informed about what their children are doing and how they are progressing. They praise the level of communication that the nursery provides and feel that their children are well cared for.
Staff monitor what children can do and what they need to learn next. They carefully observe children to find out what their interests are. They use this knowledge to plan activities that motivate children to learn and make progress.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- enhance the sharing and celebration of children's home languages and cultures to extend all children's understanding of diversity and what makes them unique n continue to strengthen staff interactions and focus on extending children's language and vocabulary 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.
