Winteringham Under Fives
GoodBirth to 5Open for decades
A pre-school in Winteringham for children from birth to 5, open sessions in term time, often mornings. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in June 2024. Open since 1989, with 26 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 North Lincolnshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in North Lincolnshire 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 at the welcoming setting eager and ready for their day. Staff greet children with a warm and friendly smile, which helps them to settle quickly.
Children actively engage in their learning as they choose what they would like to do. Children show high levels of concentration in activities. For example, children practise using the scissors. They build on their physical skills as they cut around the pictures for their healthy meal plate. Staff encourage children to keep trying. This builds children's resilience. They celebrate with staff as they achieve what they set out to do.
Staff know children and their families very well. They use their knowledge to carefully plan children's learning. Children benefit from the sequenced curriculum as they make good progress across the seven areas of learning. Children work together to solve problems. For example, they hunt for numbers in the garden.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- focus even more on the use of the EYPP funding to help children's learning to be extended even further n develop further staff supervision arrangements so that training and development needs are identified, which will extend staff's practice most effectively.

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.
