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 Coventry
This is not this setting's price. It is the median hourly fee across all providers in Coventry 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 swiftly separate from their parents and are eager to get inside the preschool to begin their learning. Children immediately seek out and engage in playing with their friends, who they share extremely strong friendships with. The superb variety of activities on offer wonderfully support all areas of the children's development and provides them with a vast amount of choice.
Children's behaviour is outstanding. They have a superb understanding of what is expected of them, and they practise the skills they learn to help them play harmoniously with one another. Children confidently attempt to resolve conflicts with their peers independently. At times, when they are unsuccessful, they articulately explain to staff, 'he won't let me in the tunnel, and that's not caring and sharing'. On the children's request, staff intervene to support them in ensuring fair play.
Children thoroughly enjoy a wonderful range of role-play opportunities. They care for dolls by dressing them to keep them warm when they take them outdoors in a pushchair. Children pretend to cook on a pretend hob with fresh produce, such as vegetables. Children's understanding of the importance of oral health is fantastically promoted. They pretend to be a dentist with a set of teeth and tools, such as drills and dough that they use as fillings. Children learn about foods to avoid, such as too much sugar, to keep their teeth strong and healthy.

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.
