What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
Funded hours
15 or 30 hours of government-funded childcare.
Worth knowing. Funding covers 38 weeks per year (term time). If your child attends all year round, normal fees apply for the remaining 14 weeks. All funded places include additional charges for meals and enhanced activities (except under 2s).
What childcare usually costs in Haringey
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Haringey 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 and parents are greeted warmly by staff as they arrive at the setting.
Children separate happily from parents, and handover information is quickly shared between parents and staff on each child. Staff welcome children in, before supporting them to change from outdoor shoes into indoor warm slippers and start their day. Children are given time to settle. Staff commentate on what children are doing as they move around and look at the different activities set out to play with.
Children behave well for their age and stage of development. Staff have high expectations and communicate these consistently to children. Children are continuously praised for their efforts. They are commended for 'good listening' and
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- help children consistently to develop self-help skills, particularly during mealtimes n enhance methods of coaching to support staff to raise the quality of their teaching to a consistently high level.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- What does it cost, all in? 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.
