Storkway Nursery
Good★ 3.2 on GoogleBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Kidbrooke 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 November 2023. Open since 2005, with 50 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 Greenwich
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Greenwich 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
Staff are nurturing and speak to children kindly at this nursery. They ensure children receive plenty of encouragement, cuddles and praise. Children emulate the positive behaviour modelled by staff. They show they feel safe and secure. They happily interact with their key persons and keenly gather together for cooperative play.
Children curiously explore and staff help babies develop their imaginary play.
Babies spend extended moments pretending to care for their dolls as they lay them to sleep. Staff make expert use of these times to build babies early speaking skills.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - take reasonable steps to create opportunities for children who speak English as an additional language to use their home languages in their play so they build their vocabulary as quickly as they are capable of n support children to acquire an understanding of how they can keep themselves safe when using the internet.

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.
