Greenway Nursery And Rainbow Club
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A pre-school in Horsham for children from birth to 8+, open 07:30 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in April 2024. Open since 2017, with 60 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 West Sussex
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in West Sussex 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
Leaders and staff pride themselves on creating a family feel at the nursery.
Children are very happy, safe and secure. The effective settling-in process helps children separate easily from their parents, including new children to the setting.
Children are very confident individuals. Staff respect each child's individual personality, which helps children to feel valued. Staff are good role models who help children to learn about boundaries and working well with others. Children learn to manage their own emotions and start to recognise the needs of others around them. This helps children to build important skills for their future learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to recognise and make better use of opportunities to help children to develop higher levels of independence and responsibility n strengthen support for children to develop their own creativity and imagination during planned activities.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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.
