Yesodey Hatorah Primary Girls School
GoodBirth to 5Open for decades
A day nursery in London for children from birth to 5, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in December 2024. Open since 2011, with 24 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 Hackney
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Hackney 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
Staff have very close and caring relationships with children in this warm and nurturing nursery. They create a family atmosphere where staff know and value each child highly. Staff take time to ensue that babies settle well by adhering to their care routines from home, such as sleeping patterns. They have high expectations of children and manage children's behaviour in positive ways. Children behave well.
Staff work well together to create a suitably challenging curriculum that offers children stimulating experiences. All children make good progress. Staff support children to gain good creative skills. Children enjoy scooping and pouring beans into tubs. They explore different textures and materials, such as tissue paper and pom-poms, which they use to decorate boxes.
Staff help children to gain good mathematical skills. They count beans with children as they play, and use words such as 'empty' and 'full' to compare volume. They sing number songs and rhymes to support children's counting skills. Staff support children's physical development well. Babies and toddlers enjoy pulling themselves up and climbing onto low platforms. They crawl through tunnels and develop good physical skills.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- consider ways to enhance children's engagement with books to support their communication, language and literacy skills further n develop children's understanding of feelings further to support their understanding of themselves and others.

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.
