Choosing a nursery

  • Read the latest Ofsted report. Search by name or postcode on reports.ofsted.gov.uk. Private nurseries and childminders are on it as well as school nurseries.
  • Visit, and ask about the day. Ratios of staff to children, how they settle a new child in, food, naps and time outdoors.
  • Ask about funded hours and extra charges. Some nurseries charge for meals, nappies or trips on top of funded hours.
  • Check waiting lists early. Popular nurseries fill months ahead, especially for babies.

Questions people ask

What do Ofsted grades mean for nurseries?

Until late 2025 Ofsted gave one overall grade: Outstanding, Good, Requires improvement or Inadequate. Newer inspections give a report card instead, grading each area on a scale from exceptional to urgent improvement. Older grades stay on a nursery’s record until its next inspection.

Can I get free childcare hours?

In England every three and four year old can get 15 hours a week of funded childcare in term time. Working parents can get up to 30 hours a week from when their child is nine months old, if each parent earns at least 16 hours a week at the minimum wage and under £100,000 a year. Check and apply at childcarechoices.gov.uk.

How do I check a nursery’s Ofsted report?

Search for it by name or postcode on reports.ofsted.gov.uk. Every registered nursery and childminder in England has a page there with its inspection reports.

How many nurseries are there in Limbury?

We know of 22 nurseries, preschools and childcare providers within 1 mile of the middle of Limbury, including 1 state nursery school. Childminders working from home don’t always appear on maps, so there may be more.
