What you might pay

What it is like to attend
Children explore confidently as they access a range of meticulously planned activities. Outside, children are fascinated by water; they experiment as they fill containers of different sizes. Children observe how petals float on the surface of the water. They talk to each other about the colours, smells and textures of what they have discovered. They are completely absorbed in their play and concentrate hard, not letting the water overflow. Children have extremely positive attitudes to learning.
Children are motivated to share and cooperate with each other. They demonstrate high levels of self-control as they persist with challenging problems. For example, outside, children build using boxes. They clear leaves and wind tape around trees.
Children ask each other for help and tell each other, 'Be careful of the cement'.

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.
