Cost

What it costs

Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.

£8.30 an hour
Our current hourly rate is £8.30 per hour.

One published rate. What you pay depends on the days you need and the funded hours you can claim.

Funded hours

We accept all government funding for 2 years and above.

Worth knowing. We currently do not ask for any contributions to consumables/snacks.

What childcare usually costs in West Sussex

£7.00an hour, typical for a 2 years old
£6.87an hour, typical for a 3 and 4 years old

This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in West Sussex from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

£8.30 an hour is about the same as the West Sussex median of £6.87 an hour. The median covers every provider in the council, including childminders, so a nursery sitting above it is normal.

What 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.

This setting re-registered. It replaced “Milland Valley Nursery School” at the same address, which had been registered since 4 December 2002. A change of owner or legal entity gives Ofsted a brand new record, so the inspections below may only cover the time since then.

  • Waiting list

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.

Before you ring

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £8.30 an hour 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.
