Cost

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 Rutland

£6.50an hour, typical for a 3 and 4 years old

This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Rutland from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

What the inspector found

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend

Children arrive at the nursery happily and are greeted enthusiastically by the nurturing and caring staff team. All children settle quickly into their chosen play.

The management team and staff create a stimulating environment which ignites children's curiosity and exploration, during indoors and outdoor play. Staff understand child development and quickly identify what children need to learn next. Children enjoy developing new skills and knowledge. During a mathematical activity, older children are supported by staff to gain an understanding of pairs.

Children practise matching socks and name shapes and patterns.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:

- support all staff to more consistently identify when there are opportunities to challenge and extend children's learning as they play n review and extend the delivery of the curriculum for the older children until they transition to school.

Before you ring

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.
