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 Waltham Forest

What it is like to attend
Children are happy and relaxed in the calming and welcoming environment. Staff help children settle with ease. They build warm and trusting relationships with their key worker. Babies snuggle in for reassuring cuddles. This helps children to feel safe and secure. Staff know children's interests, linking them to what they want children to learn. For example, children in the toddler room are learning about their body parts through their love of action rhymes. Older children are learning how to become independent as they cut fruit for snack time.
Children develop secure attachments with the staff, who are kind and attentive to their needs. For instance, when babies wake from their naps, key people provide cuddles and reassurance before the children settle back to play.
Children behave well. They play nicely with their friends and learn to share and take turns. They form positive relationships with staff and their peers. Children develop independence in their personal skills. Staff encourage them to share and take turns as they play, and during daily routines.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review daily routines to ensure that children are not left waiting n increase opportunities for young children and babies to access outdoor play.

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.
