A day nursery in Halesowen for children from birth to 8+, open 07:00 to 18:30, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in December 2023. Open since 2022, with 65 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 Dudley
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Dudley 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
Staff greet children warmly as they arrive. They know children well and offer reassurance and comfort if they become upset. As a result, children quickly settle to their chosen activity. Children demonstrate through their interactions with staff that they feel happy and safe. They actively seek staff out to join in their play and confidently show visitors what they are doing. Relationships between staff and children are respectful. Staff ask permission to wipe children's noses and sensitively carry out care routines, such as nappy changing. This helps to make children feel valued.
The curriculum is planned to ensure that every child's individual next steps for learning, needs and interests are incorporated. As a result, all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, make good progress from their starting points. Children experience and can choose from a range of activities to promote their interest. Babies happily splash in the water tray and shout with excitement as they find the ducks. Staff regularly ask children how they are feeling and introduce strategies to help children to begin to regulate their own behaviour.
Staff are extremely conscious of children's safety. When younger children are just starting to walk and climb, staff are vigilant to allow them the experience to move in different ways, while also keeping themselves safe.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- help staff to recognise how to organise activities and make the very best of the environment, including outdoors, to focus children's engagement and enhance their involvement n provide children with more time to answer questions, to fully promote their thinking skills and extend their learning 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.
