GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Henley-On-Thames for children from birth to 8+, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in July 2023. Open since 2015, with 68 places.
What you might pay
This setting does not publish its fees, and no national dataset holds them. This is what childcare costs across the council, as a starting point for the call.
What childcare usually costs in Buckinghamshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Buckinghamshire 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 happily enter the nursery, where warm and friendly staff greet them. Staff effectively implement a flexible settling-in process. They have identified the need to focus on children who struggle to settle as an impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Children are safe, secure and form good relationships with staff. This helps children to develop personal, social and emotional skills. Staff know children very well and identify specific needs and next steps. They use this information to plan the environment to ensure all children have access to a wide variety of learning opportunities.
Staff focus on getting children ready for their next stage in education and teach them skills to help with this. Children learn to take care of themselves. For example, staff support children who are toilet training and work in partnership with parents to achieve this. They help children understand their needs. For instance, staff support children who recognise when they need the toilet. They extend this learning and introduce ways to promote self-care further. For example, staff talk about the importance of dental hygiene and children have the chance to practise brushing their teeth. Children engage in play and behave well. All children make good progress, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review and refine the planning of group times to more effectively engage and maintain children's interest and promote the intended learning.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Is there a place for my child's age? 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.
