St Peter's Childrens Centre
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Cleethorpes for children from birth to 8+, open 07:45 to 17:45, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in April 2022. Open since 2002, with 65 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 North East Lincolnshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in North East Lincolnshire 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 stimulating and inviting environment. Friendly and professional staff greet children and parents warmly. Staff support those who need a little more reassurance before quickly going to play. Children are happy and have good bonds with their key person. Even the youngest children understand and know the routine of the day.
Staff have a clear view of the progress they want children to make. They have high expectations for their development. Accurate observations and assessments enable staff to identify any areas where they would like children to develop further. Staff realise the impact of COVID-19 and focus children's learning on key areas to enable them to reach their full potential. Children have ample opportunities to experience outdoor play. The curriculum is implemented to support children to develop their physical development, including their fine and gross motor skills. They follow the obstacle course in the garden and learn about their body's movements.
Children behave very well. Staff support them to learn about the feelings of others and have empathy towards their friends. They remind them about using kind hands and walking feet inside the setting. Staff act as good role models and encourage the children to use good manners.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- extend children's understanding of how healthy eating habits contribute to their overall health n review the arrangements for snack time to consider the individual needs of all children.

- 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.
