Redlands Day Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Redcar for children from birth to 8+, 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 April 2025. Open since 1994, with 24 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 Redcar and Cleveland
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Redcar and Cleveland 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 show that they feel happy and secure in this home-from-home nursery.
They benefit from warm interactions with caring and nurturing staff. Children demonstrate that they are happy and feel secure as they confidently leave their parents and quickly settle into their individual rooms.
Children enjoy spending time in the outdoor area. They enthusiastically engage with the interesting opportunities on offer. For instance, children delight in using the large swing and engaging in an adventurous obstacle course. Staff know when to step in to provide support and when to provide children with further challenge.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- further develop information gathered from parents to plan more effectively for individual children's learning, from the very beginning.

Still missing for Redlands Day Nursery
- What it costs
- Funded hours
- Youngest age taken
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
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.
