St Georges Pre School
OutstandingBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Sevenoaks for children from birth to 8+, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in July 2024. Open since 2016, with 20 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 Kent
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Kent 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
The dedicated and knowledgeable staff work tirelessly to create a wonderful and safe environment where children flourish. Every child receives an inspirational and innovative curriculum that provides them with the exact skills they need to become successful learners. The manager's intent for every child to receive a rich and ambitious set of experiences is fully understood by all staff. They want all children to aspire to be the best they can be. Children are highly motivated, curious and happy.
Children form incredibly strong bonds with the nurturing staff, who know them exceptionally well. Staff work seamlessly with parents, other professionals and other settings that children attend, to provide a curriculum that is specifically tailored to the needs of every child. Those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities benefit from superb teaching to support their learning and development. Before children leave for school, they develop confidence, knowledge and skills to support a life-long love of learning.
Staff focus on developing children's social and personal skills to help them form solid friendships, successfully work alongside others and improve their independence skills. They demonstrate insight and thoughtfulness when they respect children's individual wishes. Children reflect this in their harmonious play, which is kind, gentle and sympathetic to the needs of their friends.

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.
