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 Barking and Dagenham
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Barking and Dagenham 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 settle quickly at this happy nursery. They giggle with staff when they play together and enjoy singing and dancing. Staff play music for children to dance to while they are waiting to go outside. Children tap their knees as they sing along with familiar rhymes. Staff learn songs in children's home languages, which they sing with them to support a sense of belonging.
Leaders plan a curriculum that advances as children move through the nursery.
Staff monitor the impact teaching has on children's learning so that all children make good progress. Staff share the curriculum with parents and carers, so they are aware of why staff do the things they do at nursery and the impact that play has on their children's learning.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- consider the length of time children are expected to sit and listen on the carpet to ensure that they remain focused and engaged throughout.

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.
