Bradley Green Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Atherstone for children from birth to 8+, open 8am to 6pm. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in October 2023. Open since 2016, with 52 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 Warwickshire
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Warwickshire 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 create a warm and homely atmosphere for all children. They greet children on their level with cuddles and positive statements. For example, one staff member exclaims: 'I am so happy you are here today!' Each key person takes considerable time to get to know their children exceptionally well. All staff have high expectations for children's behaviour and manners. Children feel valued and happily share their special items from home with staff. They are happy and confidently march to their rooms to greet their friends. All children show positive behaviour and respect for others during their play. They listen attentively to what staff explain to them and respond positively. For example, when children have trouble sharing toys, a staff member calmly explains the importance of teamwork.
Since the last inspection, the manager has devised a coherent curriculum for all children, including children with special educational needs and/or disabilities
(SEND). Children benefit from activities that staff plan for them based on their interests. Staff communicate with children clearly. They regularly check children's understanding by talking to them at their level. Children are curious learners engaged in their play. They excitedly explore all activities on offer. For example, toddlers have fun with play dough, explore fresh herbs and scoop up cooked pasta.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- expand on information shared with parents to support them in extending children's learning at home n further develop the support given to less experienced staff to help enhance the overall quality of teaching n adopt consistent cleaning arrangements of nappy changing areas to prevent the spread of infection and provide children with privacy.

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.
