Where this came from
The outlined line is the one the price was taken from.
Funded hours
Free Government Funding.
Worth knowing. Funding covers basic childcare and does not included consumables such as food and drinks. We are therefore entitled to charge extra for these items.
What childcare usually costs in Devon
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Devon 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 are happy and enjoy their time at this welcoming and friendly nursery.
They form strong relationships with their familiar key person and members of the caring and calm staff team. Children are increasingly independent. Staff provide sensitive encouragement that enables children to try new things and attempt tasks for themselves. For example, milk is served in small jugs to enable toddlers to successfully pour their own drinks. Children show confidence and are keen to get involved in play. Activities closely reflect children's interests and home life experiences. Parents and staff contribute comments about children's achievements to the 'Proud Cloud' board. This boosts children's sense of pride. Children play well with their friends. They show that they understand rules and expectations, such as waiting for their turn on the slide.
Children benefit from a broad and interesting curriculum. All children, including those with learning difficulties and/or disabilities, make good progress. Staff have high expectations of what children can achieve. They make good use of any additional funding to support individual children's needs. Staff engage well with children during their play. There is the sound of children chattering in each of the playrooms, as staff constantly involve them in discussions. Children listen well and respond with thoughtful questions and comments. Children benefit from lots of opportunities to play outdoors. They develop physical skills, such as how to use a balance bike and climb up narrow steps.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - provide more opportunities for children who are acquiring language to express themselves through different means n ensure all staff have a good understanding of children's individual learning needs, so that children are challenged as much as possible throughout all their activities and play.

What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- Is £45.00 a session still the rate? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
