Woosehill Day Nursery and Pre-School
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in Wokingham 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 November 2021. Open since 1992, with 60 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 Wokingham
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Wokingham 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 confidently and are eager to start the day. They greet their friends and staff happily, settling quickly to their chosen activity. Children show that they feel safe and secure. They talk to staff with ease and excitedly tell their key persons which toys and resources they would like to get out for the session ahead.
Children behave very well and enjoy the company of others. They play cooperatively, learn to share and take turns. This helps to prepare children well for their next stages of learning and eventual move on to school.
Children positively thrive and flourish in this home-from-home, family feel nursery.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen staff's understanding of using consistent questioning techniques to encourage children to extend their communication and language skills n build on existing procedures to gather more detailed information from parents about what their children already know and can do when they first start at the setting.

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.
