Where this came from
The outlined line is the one the price was taken from.
Funded hours
15 hours universal funded entitlement for 3 and 4 year olds, 15 hours 2-year-old funding, and 15 & 30 hour extended entitlement for working families.
Worth knowing. Lunch clubs are at an extra cost of £5.50 per lunch club. Lunch is not included in the half day. If you wish to attend 5 full days there will be a chargeable fee as the hours your child attends will be over the 30-hour funding.
What childcare usually costs in Wokingham
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Wokingham from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

Where it is
RG41 2TAWhat Ofsted found, area by area
Since November 2025 Ofsted gives a standard in each of seven areas rather than one overall grade. Expected standard means it is doing what it should.
What the inspector found
One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £19.80 a session 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.
