Fees have just gone up to a crazy ?79.80 per day for Under 2's and ?74.75 for Over 2's.

Much is made of the fact it is rated Outstanding by Ofsted but surely not every Outstanding nursery charges this much?

Am interested to know as this seems far too high to pay.

Think gumboots is about ?50 for over 2s but is a community nursery ( and outstanding at recent inspection)


That new ish one at The Elms on Peckham rye is about ?85 for under 2s I think... Big disparities but I guess they. An charge what they like due to lack of spaces vs kids in the area

The fees are ridiculous every year they raise the fee. I over heard the staff complaining about it say they don't even get half the money they are ripping these people off the garden is run down the nursery need more resources were does the money go in management pocket and the head boss while we buss our asses off looking after the children and doing all the work.
We had our first child at Asquiths (?78/day) and then she moved to The Villa (?55/day). Our second goes to My Favourite Nursery (?46/day). I would say completely honestly that we get much more in terms of both care and her development at both The Villa and My Favourite Nursery than we did at Asquiths, so yes I think it is far too high to pay

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
