What childcare usually costs in Worcestershire
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 a highly inclusive and supportive learning environment for all children.
On arrival, children are greeted warmly by their key person. This helps to form close relationships. Children develop a strong sense of connection and belonging.
Staff support children to explore the environment and choose how they want to spend their time.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- evaluate the continuous provision to ensure that younger children can access all learning opportunities n reflect on the organisation and timing of group sessions to support younger children to have a more positive experience.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £48.75 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.
