What childcare usually costs in Kensington and Chelsea
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Kensington and Chelsea 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 are extremely enthusiastic to commence their nursery day. Greeted by staff, they independently hang up their coats and bags and quickly find something of interest. The curriculum is exceptionally ambitious, and children show extremely high level of focus at their chosen tasks. They spend sustained periods of time completely engaged in what they are doing.
Behaviour of children is exemplary. Children are empathetic to one another. Older children help and support younger children, mimicking the way staff support them.
For example, during lunch younger children ask how to open their yoghurt. Rather than doing it for them, older children show them the flap of the lid that makes it easier to pull. Staff help children understand the concept of sharing and taking turns. Children ask politely if they can use a particular resource next. In the garden, children use a timer to take turns with the car. Once the timer shows it is the next child's turn, children willingly exchange roles.

What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- Is £150.00 a term still the rate? 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.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
