Little Angels Preschool
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Warrington for children from birth to 8+, open 07:15 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in April 2022. Open since 2013, with 62 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 Wigan
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Wigan 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 are extremely happy, content and confident. They clearly demonstrate their enjoyment as they engage in the activities provided. Children show impressive levels of concentration and perseverance as they master and consolidate their skills. For example, they try to open and close an umbrella independently following the sensitive instructions and encouragement given by staff. Children are warmly praised for their efforts and achievements, which helps to develop their selfassurance and raise their self-esteem.
Staff have high expectations of children, in particular their behaviour. Children benefit from calm, clear and consistent messages. They understand that a sand timer indicates the end of their turn and skilfully use these in their play as they develop their self-regulation skills and understanding.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, staff recognised the importance of maintaining relationships with children to ensure their emotional security and overall well-being.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - build on staff's knowledge of the curriculum intent so that they are clear on what knowledge and skills they want children to gain from all experiences n strengthen staff's ability to successfully extend and challenge children's learning and understanding during child-led 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.
