Little Hulton Children's Centre Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Worsley for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 September 2025. Open since 2001, with 75 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 Salford
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Salford 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 settle well at this inclusive nursery. Staff create an interesting learning environment in which children are safe and secure. Children arrive eager to learn.
They greet staff as they enter with a smile and a hug. A culture of respect is evident in this nursery. Staff chat to parents, offering reassurance, guidance and support when needed. Staff use their knowledge of children's interests along with what children need to learn next to plan learning for the day ahead. Staff are excellent role models who carry out their roles with care and compassion. Children are learning to follow rules and understand the nursery routines.
The learning environment allows children to play and become immersed in learning. Leaders plan the curriculum with emotional regulation at the heart of it.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- help staff to improve their knowledge of effective questioning to further develop children's communication and language skills n further strengthen the support for staff to help them to enhance the delivery of all aspects of the intended curriculum.

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.
