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 Redcar and Cleveland

What it is like to attend
Children are greeted by warm, welcoming staff. Staff have worked hard to develop the learning environment both indoors and outside. A love of books is promoted at every opportunity. Children often choose to read, and staff members nurture this love for reading. Staff are kind and supportive towards children. Relationships are strong and children appear happy, safe and well supported. Children behave well and often play together in mixed age groups. Children are helpful towards one another and show respect when playing together. Younger children are encouraged by the older children in the setting, which results in younger children engaging in playful learning.
Children have access to lots of opportunities for learning both inside and outside, and move freely between both. Children show high levels of concentration and are excited to explore. Children learn about their local area by going on seasonal walks and trips to local parks. Children are articulate and are able to share their own ideas. Staff encourage this and respond promptly to children's ideas. Children enjoy a range of activities, including crafting, construction and sensory play.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- develop partnership working between practitioners in other settings to support learning and development n strengthen the development opportunities provided for staff to build on the implementation of the curriculum for individual children's communication and language.

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.
