Good★ 3.9 on GoogleBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in London 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 January 2024. Open since 1992, with 52 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 Ealing
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Ealing 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 are well cared for in a welcoming and secure environment. Staff organise the space to allow children opportunities to move around the nursery so they can self-select resources and activities. Children enjoy sitting at tables to make their marks on paper, practising their pencil grasp and developing their hand control.
Children may choose to play in large trays on the floor. They move tractors and animals as they play with sensory resources creatively set up as a farm. Children appear happy as they spend time playing by themselves or in small groups.
Younger children explore their environment. They move freely, developing their physical skills as they transition from crawling to walking. Staff focus their curriculum on the three prime areas of learning. They plan activities to support the development of children's language and communication, social and emotional, and physical skills effectively.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- use strategies effectively to support children's engagement in back-and-forth interactions to extend their language skills fully n use opportunities to incorporate numbers and counting into activities to support children's mathematical development n include more opportunities for younger children to understand routines and how activities change throughout the day.

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.
