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 West Sussex

What it is like to attend
Babies and children settle well in the warm care of the welcoming staff team.
Individualised settling-in sessions support children as they begin the important process of building strong bonds with staff. Babies enjoy their interactions with staff and other children. They delight when older children sing to them and gaze at staff, who talk to them during the closeness of a bottle feed. This shows the effective development of the bonds and understanding of key persons. The manager has a good understanding of how to plan a broad curriculum, based on what children need to learn next and following their interests. She devises this from information gained from parents and staff's observations and assessments.
Children learn to take turns and work together. For example, they receive support to understand when it is their turn to use the small, wooden slide indoors and then when it is their friend's go. Children can explain that they are waiting for their friend to go down the slide, showing that they have learned this concept. Children have good levels of resilience and perseverance. If they accidentally take a tumble, they respond to staff who check if they are alright and persist with bringing the items they want to play with to the garden. Children share their views of the nursery and state, 'I love coming to nursery, it's fun here.' Others explain that they love playing with their friends.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen staff's understanding of giving children time to respond to questions and use the correct pronunciation of words n embrace children's cultural backgrounds and heritage more effectively to support their awareness of similarities and differences.

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.
