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 Lincolnshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Lincolnshire 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 happy to attend this inviting nursery. They show that they feel safe and secure, for example, when they follow the routines. Children in the baby room take off their shoes and put them in the allocated space. Children learn how to behave positively. For example, when children in the pre-school room finish playing with toys, staff say, 'when you have finished with the toys' children reply 'you put them away'.
Children have opportunities to develop a love of books. Children in the toddler room listen to favourite stories and repeat familiar phrases, such as 'I'm the gingerbread man.' Children in the pre-school room are introduced to new words through story telling. This helps to extend their vocabulary. Children are supported to develop their mathematical skills. They solve problems when they complete puzzles; staff help them to recognise different shapes, such as a circle and hexagon. Children are keen to engage in conversations with staff to share their thoughts and ideas. They learn how to use sign language to support their understanding of the words they use. This is particularly beneficial for children who speak English as an additional language. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities benefit from additional funding to provide them with one-to-one support from staff. This helps to meet their individual needs.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen partnerships with parents and keep them informed about their child's development and how they can continue their child's learning at home n help staff to recognise when to adjust their interactions to offer further guidance to correct children's misunderstandings and to support their leaning even further.

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.
