King David Kindergarten
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A pre-school in Liverpool for children from birth to 8+, open sessions in term time, often mornings. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in May 2024. Open since 2012, with 80 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 Liverpool
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Liverpool 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 have a lovely experience at this kindergarten. Staff provide a calm and nurturing environment which helps children to feel safe, relaxed and included. A
strong focus is placed on building trusting relationships and promoting children's emotional well-being. Children separate from parents with ease and quickly settle into play and learning with their friends. Staff have high expectations of children and support their understanding of the kindergarten ethos. Children learn to share, take turns and use their manners when interacting with others. They demonstrate kind and friendly behaviours and understand what is expected of them.
The curriculum for communication and language development is well implemented.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- focus group activities more precisely on the curriculum intentions and what children need to learn next n strengthen the procedures for monitoring professional development to help extend staff skills and knowledge 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.
