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

What it is like to attend
Every child is valued and treated as an individual in this welcoming nursery. Staff build strong relationships with children and their families. Highly effective settling-in sessions help children to adjust gradually to attending the nursery. Staff work with parents to find out about the child and their routines. For example, staff follow the parents' routine from home for babies. As a result, children feel safe and secure and display a great sense of belonging.
Children make choices about how they will learn from an exceptionally wellresourced environment. Staff expertly build on children's learning through highquality interactions. Children become deeply engaged in activities. For example, toddlers explore the texture of dry porridge oats. They use spoons to scoop the oats into different bowls. They stay at this activity for a long period, supported well by staff. Staff ask thought-provoking questions and encourage children to solve problems.
Children show exceptional behaviour and are courteous towards their friends and staff. Staff throughout the nursery use consistent methods to teach children about how to manage their own feelings. Staff support children to understand sharing, through prompt reminders, and how to take account of others. Staff use positive reinforcement with pre-school children. They identify a 'star of the day'. In the baby room, staff praise children and clap when they do well. Children beam with pleasure.

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.
