Osterley Park Day Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Isleworth for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in May 2022. Open since 1993, with 20 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 Hounslow
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Hounslow 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. They settle quickly and receive positive interactions from caring staff. Children wave goodbye to their parents and show excitement as they join their friends. Babies are content and feel safe. They confidently explore their surroundings with staff who know them well.
Children experience an exciting curriculum. Staff carefully plan and consider children's interests and individual needs. Children are happy to take part in a range of interesting activities, indoors and outside. Staff have high expectations for children, and help them to learn new skills and knowledge. They are committed to providing high-quality learning opportunities outdoors that foster children's curiosity, healthy habits and a love for nature. Children show delight when planting seeds, vegetables and flower bulbs. They comment on how they are going to nurture them, so that they grow.
Overall, children develop good communication skills. Children are polite, well mannered and are sociable. They negotiate with each other, and learn how to cooperatively take turns and share resources. Children of all ages learn about emotions and feelings, such as through stories and rhymes. They are supported to express themselves in an appropriate way.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- extend opportunities for children who speak English as an additional language to use their home language when they play n strengthen staff's skills in enhancing activities to stretch and challenge children's learning further.

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.
