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 Hillingdon
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Hillingdon 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 welcoming the children encourage them to find their name peg and hang up their coat and bag. Children enter nursery happily, greeting their friends. Children separate quickly from their parents as they are eager to start their day. Staff use interesting and well-presented activities to engage children's attention and support next steps in their learning. Planning is visibly linked to an ambitious curriculum, with staff having high expectations for all children.
Behaviour is good. Practice is embedded and supports children when moving from free play to routine events. Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), respond immediately by stopping what they are doing and putting their hands up to listen to instructions from staff. Children join in with tidying up as they sing the 'tidy-up time' song. Children remind each other if they get distracted and begin to play. Children are aware of what they need to do to get ready for what is going to happen next. For example, children make their way to the carpet area, with minimal staff support, eager to join their circle time. They enthusiastically recite and sing the days of the week. Staff direct children to look out the window before joining in a discussion on the day's weather. Children request favourite songs; they sing as they complete actions, smiling and laughing to demonstrate their enjoyment. Children build their confidence; they feel secure and form strong relationships with kind, responsive staff.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- be more consistent in how the curriculum for language and communication is delivered n ensure children being rewarded with praise know what actions or behaviour they are being rewarded for.

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.
