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 East Riding of Yorkshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in East Riding of Yorkshire 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
The strong focus on the environment, sustainability and nature creates a varied and highly engaging curriculum. Children have opportunities to learn about growing vegetables and picking and using the produce in their food. Children know about composting. They collect the eggs from the nursery chickens. The nursery cookbook provides families with a range of recipes using seasonal vegetables to encourage children's love of food at home.
Children are extremely eager to enter this safe and welcoming environment.
Children's strong bonds with staff contribute to their feelings of security and support their emotional well-being. Children respond well to praise and encouragement. Their behaviour is exceptional. Recent staff training has allowed staff to focus on children's emotional regulation and understanding feelings. This has enabled children to express themselves and make their needs known. Children have access to a selection of toys, which help them to manage their feelings and support them to calm and settle.

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.
