What childcare usually costs in Surrey
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Surrey 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 flourish in this vibrant and well-presented pre-school. They demonstrate that they feel happy, safe and stimulated. Children show excitement on arrival and benefit from consistent routines. For instance, children put their bags and shoes away and pop their slippers on to start their day.
Staff work together to meet children's individual care and learning needs effectively. Children thrive on the positive relationships they develop with both their peers and members of staff. As a result, children achieve high levels of independence.
Children of all ages demonstrate a positive attitude to learning. They are supported by knowledgeable staff who provide an abundance of interesting activities. These spark children's curiosity, helping them to become engaged and confident learners.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- improve the effectiveness of staff deployment in all areas of the setting to ensure all children receive the support they need to gain the most from activities n make further use of professional development opportunities for all staff to improve knowledge and skills to the very highest standard, to enable staff to further support the children in their care.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- What does it cost, all in? 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.
