A day nursery in Slough 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 October 2024. Open since 2002, with 120 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 Slough
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Slough 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 happily skip into this inclusive nursery, greeted by the smiling and friendly staff. They settle quickly, find their friends and readily engage in the wide range of exciting activities on offer. Strong key person arrangements ensure children feel valued, safe and secure. Staff are immensely nurturing and positive in their interactions with children. Children show a true sense of belonging, which is further demonstrated as they proudly share and talk about their family photographs with friends and new visitors.
The capable leaders demonstrate an excellent knowledge and understanding of their carefully designed curriculum. They have high expectations for all children.
These aspirations are reflected in the programme for children's learning, which builds on what children know and can do overtime. All children make good progress from their starting points, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The ambitious curriculum prepares children well for their next stage in education.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review and improve individual staff's professional development programmes and consistently monitor the impact of their teaching on children even more closely.

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.
