A day nursery in West Bromwich 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 April 2023. Open since 2019, with 24 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 Sandwell
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Sandwell 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 enjoy the time they spend with the staff at the nursery. They have formed close bonds with staff and enjoy involving them in their play. Children are happy and safe. They have respect for each other, staff and the learning environment.
For example, children tell staff when they notice pen marks on a table. Staff have high expectations for children's behaviour and children understand the rules and boundaries. They behave well and enjoy the positive praise that staff provide them for their achievements, such as good sharing.
Children thoroughly enjoy sharing books and staff help them to develop their understanding of the characters and events in a story. Children eagerly explore sensory materials that represent the scenes from their favourite book. They develop their understanding of the meaning of words, such as 'under', 'over' and
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- enhance the curriculum for children's physical development to precisely identify the sequence of skills that children need to gain to further support staff in their planning n help staff to plan the learning environment so that children benefit from further opportunities to extend their thinking skills and to solve problems independently.

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.
