Lascelles Park Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Lascelles Road for children from birth to 8+, open 08:45 to 18:00, 7 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in July 2022. Open since 2015, with 24 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 Slough
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Slough 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 demonstrate they feel safe and that they are happy at the nursery. They enter the nursery with confidence and leave their parents easily at the door.
Children have a welcoming environment in which to play. Staff attractively set up exciting activities for the children to inspire them to play. For example, the children have cosy den areas to relax and enjoy books in. The environment is organised effectively to ensure all areas of learning are catered for and to promote learning.
For instance, children have access to media and materials, such as paint, dough and cutters, which help them to build on their small-physical skills. Outside, children have a good range of play equipment, which they climb, balance and pull themselves onto. This supports and builds on children's moving and handling skills for physical development.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- encourage all children to take an active part in group activities, in particular to support those who are less confident at these times n build on the good-behaviour management strategies to help support children's understanding of the rules and boundaries 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.
