Where this came from
The outlined line is the one the price was taken from.
Funded hours
15 hours funding or 30 hours funding; universal 15 hours from the term after they turn 3 years; Enhanced Funding (2/3/4-year-olds).
Worth knowing. Universal Funding will be either 3 mornings or 3 afternoons and taken off fees each month (term time only). Children accessing ‘funded only’ sessions will attend term time only. Enhanced funding stretched over 48 weeks, 25 hours per week, claimed over two full days (8am – 6pm) and one session at 5 hours (8am – 1pm OR 1 – 6pm).

This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Worcestershire 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
Staff provide children with a safe learning environment and an ambitious curriculum so that they can explore and experiment with their ideas throughout the day. Children have the freedom to play imaginatively and are joined by staff who sensitively help to extend their ideas and introduce rich language and concepts. For example, children are supported to make waterfalls in the water and pretend volcanos in the sand. The setting's ethos is to provide a broad range of first-hand experiences for children to learn about living things and the life cycle of plants and animals. For example, when children are busy watering the vegetables, herbs and flowers they have planted, they closely identify how the tadpoles have changed into froglets. Staff plan activities that have clear learning intentions. Children show high levels of engagement. For example, children are quickly enticed by the real lemons, oranges and tea bags as they use their senses and describe what they see and taste. Story sessions are well planned and children delight in using the various visual props. They recall familiar phrases and respond well to questions.
Children develop resilience and cope with change. They manage the routines throughout the day exceptionally well. All children, including the youngest, confidently use the dining room as they wash their hands, choose their name cards and put their plates away once they have finished. Staff have high expectations for children's behaviour and conduct. They support children's understanding of why behaviour rules are in place. Children respond well to gentle reminders of what is expected from them. As a result, children behave well and respond extremely well to the ringing of the bell when it is time to finish playing.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - monitor staff more successfully and support them to plan effectively for their key-person group sessions so that all children can take part fully and get the most from the experience on offer
- support staff to gain a deeper understanding of how to provide appealing writing and mathematical activities for boys to help raise their attainment even further.

- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- Is £52.50 a day still the rate? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
