A day nursery in London for children from birth to 5, 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 November 2023. Open since 2016, with 100 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 Haringey
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Haringey 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 play in a vibrant and well-resourced environment, with plenty of activities to engage and excite them. They have secure bonds with the caring staff, who support and encourage their ideas and interests. Therefore, children feel secure and become enthusiastic learners. For example, older children are keen to help peel and slice the fruit for their snacks. They are curious to find out if they can squeeze juice from the fruit and have the self-assurance to try this idea out.
Children say, 'this is hard', but they show good levels of perseverance and keep trying until they have enough juice to drink.
Staff know the children well and want them to achieve as much as they can. They monitor children's progress closely and provide targeted support where needed.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- further develop staff's knowledge of how to help children understand the consequences of their actions and begin to moderate their behaviour independently.

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.
