Stockton House School
Outstanding★ 5.0 on GoogleBirth to 5Open for decades
A day nursery in Fleet for children from birth to 5, open 08:30 to 15:30, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Outstanding by Ofsted in April 2022. Open since 2005, with 70 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 Hampshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Hampshire 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 thrive in the care of the inspiring staff team. They are extremely motivated to learn and immediately engage in the abundance of stimulating activities. For example, younger children show high levels of enthusiasm as they excitedly select and add different materials during messy play activities. They are extremely inspired and curious to explore, during the changing textures of shaving foam, red paint, glue and flour, and say that it looks like lava. Children looked for books about volcanos and used the pictures to create volcanos.
Older children in the kindergarten rooms are extremely imaginative. They find the tools they need to achieve their aims from an extensive range of outdoor resources, and excitedly tell the inspector they are digging up a road and making a runway. Children put on hard hats and discuss the importance of wearing safety equipment. They make predictions as they fill containers and tell others that they may be too heavy to lift. Children demonstrate outstanding problem-solving skills and decide it would be easier to use the wheelbarrow to transport and empty the soil. All children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as an additional language, make excellent progress.

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.
