Nurseries & Childcare in Silchester
Overview
Silchester has a village nursery and childminders working from home, and for a small village that is a good spread. Both kinds are inspected by Ofsted and the reports are online, so read the latest before visiting. The practical questions here are hours and the school run, whether a nursery day fits a commute towards Reading or Basingstoke, and whether a childminder collects from the village primary school.
Before you book a nursery or childminder
Childcare is inspected and registered, and the reports are public.
What was their last Ofsted grade?
Every nursery and registered childminder in England is inspected by Ofsted and the report is online. Read the whole report, not the grade. It says what the inspector actually saw.
Do they take the funded hours?
Government-funded childcare hours are offered through registered providers, and not all of them take every scheme. Ask which they accept before you count on the discount.
Can you visit while it is running?
A settling-in visit during the day tells you more than any prospectus. Watch how the staff talk to the children who are already there.
