Little Owls Nursery Bramley
OutstandingBirth to 5Open for decades
A day nursery in Leeds for children from birth to 5, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in June 2024. Open since 2003, with 52 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 Leeds
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Leeds 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
Practitioners provide children with a very safe and caring environment. Children confidently enter and very happily access all areas of the setting. Children eagerly seek out practitioners to show them their models and artwork. They are extremely happy in this setting. Practitioners have very high expectations for children's behaviour. Older children teach younger children how to mix when playing in the mud kitchen. They wait for their turn and share resources. Children understand staff's expectations. They respond immediately when practitioners remind them of the rules about running inside. Children's behaviour is exemplary.
Teaching is outstanding. Practitioners teach with passion, energy and purpose.
Their interactions with children are of a very high quality and contribute well to delivering the curriculum intent. Practitioners maximise all opportunities to extend children's learning. For instance, when children use play dough and a selection of resources to create models of bees, practitioners teach children about beehives and the process of making honey. Children learn about the queen bee and worker bees.

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.
