Ramsey Day Nursery
Good★ 4.6 on GoogleBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Huntingdon for children from birth to 8+, open 07:30 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 September 2023. Open since 2009, with 91 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 Cambridgeshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Cambridgeshire 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 arrive happy and confident at the nursery. They settle well, leaving their family members with ease. Staff are kind and loving in their interactions with children, which helps them form strong bonds with their key person. In the youngest children's rooms, photos of families are displayed, and pictures of children's real homes are used in role play to help build a sense of community and belonging in the nursery.
Leaders help staff understand their intent for children's learning and staff's contributions to devising the new curriculum have been fully valued. Staff consider the learning environment and help children build positive attitudes to learning.
Children are eager to have a go and explore. Older children show perseverance when presented with a challenge, such as cutting up raw vegetables with a knife.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- extend existing systems for the monitoring of staff performance to help staff strengthen the delivery of the curriculum and extend children's learning even further.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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.
