Page Park Preschool
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Bristol 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 2024. Open since 1996, with 22 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
Warm, friendly and nurturing staff welcome the children into this stimulating play environment. They endeavour to build strong connections with the children and families in their care. Children enter happy and ready to learn. They seek out the staff and show them things they have found or brought in from home. Children show they feel safe and secure. They seek out their friends and feel confident talking to staff and visitors.
The Staff have clear expectations for children's learning. They focus on strengthening children's communication and language skills and promoting children's independence. This helps children develop the skills needed for later life.
Staff introduce new vocabulary and ensure children understand their meaning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to reinforce the rules and boundaries of the setting consistently so that children learn to how to be safe.

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.
