A day nursery in Bristol for children from birth to 8+, open 06:00 to 22:00, 7 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in May 2022. Open since 2017, with 46 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 South Gloucestershire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in South Gloucestershire 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 arrive very happily and are warmly welcomed by staff, who know them exceptionally well. Staff are respectful and gentle in their interactions with children.
They calmly narrate what is happening when changing younger children's nappies and during their play. This helps children feel safe and secure and develops their language. Staff working with older children are genuinely interested in their thoughts and ideas. Children are very confident and have levels of high selfesteem.
Children play cooperatively and manage disputes themselves. Staff help them to understand their feelings and the impact of their behaviour on others. Children build strong relationships with each other. They say they will miss their friends when they go on holiday. Children are highly motivated to join in. They listen intently as staff read stories and focus for long periods of time when engaging in self-directed play, such as painting and bug hunting.

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.
