School House Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Withernsea 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 2024. Open since 2007, with 30 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 East Riding of Yorkshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in East Riding of Yorkshire from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend
Children enjoy their time at this warm and nurturing setting. They benefit from embedded routines and the staff's work on building strong bonds with the children.
Children show that they feel safe and secure. For example, older children involve staff in their play. Toddlers confidently call when they need help at the toilet.
Babies delight in the response they receive for taking the adults' slippers off and putting them on their own feet. Staff praise children for 'good counting' or 'really good sharing' so that children know exactly what is expected of them. Staff create a very pleasant environment.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- further support children's conversational skills, for example by carefully considering what hinders some children's language development and/or their participation in discussions n encourage and celebrate children's creativity and self-expression even more in their indoor and outdoor work.

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.
