Your Co-op Little Pioneers Nursery & Pre-School Maida Vale
Good★ 4.5 on GoogleBirth to 8+Open for decades
A day nursery in London for children from birth to 8+, open 07:30 to 18:30, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in March 2023. Open since 2000, with 109 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 Westminster
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Westminster 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 are happy and settled at the nursery. They demonstrate trusting relationships with staff and show that they feel safe, secure and ready to learn.
Children are keen to explore their surroundings and are motivated by the activities.
For instance, children are excited to create houses for the characters from a favourite book. They think carefully about the bricks they will use and concentrate as they balance and join them.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - ensure that staff know how to complete the written progress checks for children aged between two and three years, so that information is consistently clear and accurate n help staff to further develop the ways that they promote children's thinking skills, such as by using questioning more 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.
