A day nursery in Birmingham for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 20:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in September 2022. Open since 2015, with 85 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 Birmingham
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Birmingham 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 enjoy their time in this welcoming nursery, where there is a very relaxed and happy atmosphere. Children have strong bonds with the warm and approachable staff who care for them. They develop firm friendships with the other children. Children are safe, settled and confident in their surroundings and lead their own play. They are kind and considerate to each other. For example, children invite others to join in their play. Children are independent. They serve their own lunch, pour their drinks and help themselves to snack when they are ready.
Children's early mathematical skills are developing well. They learn to count, recognise numbers and match number to quantity. Children use pens and chalks to make marks, and they communicate to staff what they are drawing. Children develop their small-muscle skills as they dig, pour and mould sand. Children develop a knowledge of letters and sounds. They demonstrate high levels of selfesteem and talk with pride about the creations they make.
Children who speak English as an additional language and those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive effective individual targeted support. Consequently, any gaps in their learning are closed quickly.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - support staff to increase opportunities for children to develop a broader understanding of diversity n support staff to enhance the outdoor learning environments to provide learning experiences that are rich, varied and stimulating, particularly for those children who prefer to learn outdoors.

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.
