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 Richmond upon Thames
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Richmond upon Thames 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 arrive happy at nursery and eager to start their day. They easily separate from parents to greet familiar staff and friends. During free play, children select what they would like to do. Staff follow children's lead, for example, by reading a favourite story or by giving support or guidance during a small-group activity.
Children confidently approach new adults, and pre-school children ask what they are doing in their nursery. Some watch fascinated as letters and words are typed.
Others make requests to have their name or what they are saying put into written form. Experiences are linked by children explaining that their parent write lists for shopping or use a computer for work. Babies and younger children approach staff for comfort and reassurance. Staff cuddle them and urge them to try things for themselves. For example, staff sing to encourage new walkers to build their confidence by taking more steps. Staff and children clap and smile in response to their success.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- develop arrangements for staff deployment to minimise disruption to children's care and play n improve staff teaching to include the use of questions to support children's thinking and develop back-and-forth conversations.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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.
