Good★ 3.8 on GoogleBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Bingley for children from birth to 8+, open 07:30 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 May 2023. Open since 2015, with 45 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 Bradford
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Bradford 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
This is a very happy and welcoming nursery. Children are deeply engaged in their play and learning. Outside, children explore the mud kitchen area and use their skills in imaginative play and creativity to produce mud pies and drinks. They discuss the ingredients they have used, demonstrating their knowledge of nature as they explain that they have added lavender and mint to their creations.
Staff use skilful observations and assessments to create a curriculum that meets the needs of individual children. For example, staff use toy dinosaurs and animals to help babies to develop their speaking skills by prompting them to make animal noises as they play. Children's behaviour in all areas of the nursery is very positive.
Their personal, social and emotional development is clearly nurtured in each room.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- extend opportunities further for children to develop their skills in language and literacy, such as by providing consistent access to a range of high-quality books n extend the organised and welcoming nursery environment into the personal care areas, including bathrooms and baby changing areas.

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.
