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 Merton

What it is like to attend
Children thoroughly enjoy spending time at this friendly and nurturing nursery.
They settle into the nursery's routines quickly. Children form close bonds with staff and their peers, and behave very well. Staff have high expectations of all children.
They provide children with clear instructions. This helps children to understand what is expected of them. Children also learn how to share and take turns, with staff's guidance. Children are safe and secure.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- plan focused activities more carefully to make the best possible use of opportunities to support children's concentration and engagement levels n support staff to extend their individual knowledge and skills further, to ensure that all children's voices are heard.

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.
