A day nursery in Redditch for children from birth to 8+, open 07:00 to 16:30, 7 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in March 2024. Open since 2016, 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 Worcestershire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Worcestershire 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 settled at this welcoming and friendly nursery. They confidently separate from their parents on arrival and eagerly settle to their chosen play with their friends. Staff are kind, caring and respond well to children's individual needs. This helps children to feel emotionally secure and builds on their overall well-being. Staff remind children of the rules of the setting. As a result, children behave well and are learning to be kind and caring towards one another.
Staff provide children with a broad and balanced curriculum. They actively join in with children's play. This helps children to develop positive attitudes to learning.
Staff are committed to ensuring every child succeeds according to their individual starting points. As a result, all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) make good progress in their learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review how some adult-led activities are organised to ensure children can continue to focus and remain engaged n support staff to help children progress with their communication and language skills even further.

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.
