Little Hearts Day Nursery
GoodBirth to 5Open for decades
A day nursery in Coventry for children from birth to 5, open 07:30 to 17:30, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in July 2022. Open since 2008, with 45 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 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 arrive happy and excited to start their day at the nursery. They receive a warm and friendly welcome from the caring staff. Children are confident and routines are well established. Children independently take off their coats and shoes and put on slippers to wear inside the nursery.
The nursery is well resourced in both the indoor and outdoor environments. The manager has recently renovated the nursery to create a spacious environment for children to direct their own play and learning.
Children are well prepared for their next stage in education. Children in the preschool room write their own names. Children engage in a writing activity and confidently write names of animals. They are also beginning to read. For example, children point to signs around the nursery and read them.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- provide children with enough time to think about and respond to questions that are being asked n gain more knowledge of the curriculum intent to support staff to fully understand what they want children to learn.

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.
