What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
What childcare usually costs in Cheshire East
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Cheshire East from the Department for Education's 2025 provider survey. No national data holds what an individual nursery charges, so ring and ask.

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend
Since the last inspection, leaders have taken the opportunity to reflect on their practice and provision and implemented plans to achieve the actions set. Leaders and staff have met all actions from the last inspection and improved the curriculum intent and implementation to a good quality. Consequently, the impact of the curriculum on children's learning means they are all ready for their next stage in learning. Leaders have focused staff training and professional development on ensuring that the experiences of children are continuously improved. Staff have received training on the curriculum and on how young children learn. Staff are knowledgeable about how to support children's learning experiences and enhance their development.
Staff plan learning experiences to support all children's individual needs. Children experience regular forest school sessions. These are delivered by trained and experienced staff. Children develop their independence skills, and they learn how to manage risks and how to keep themselves safe. Children learn transferable skills, which they then apply to all aspects of their learning. Children enjoy nutritious, home-cooked meals. Mealtimes are social experiences for children. Older children enjoy the responsibility of helping staff to set up the table for meals.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- continue to develop the curriculum to enhance all children's learning through ambitious and well-sequenced experiences at all times.

What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- 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.
