What it costs
Prices change without notice. Treat these as what to ask about, not a quote.
Funded hours
Free 15 hour, and a limited number of 30 hour places, are offered for 3 -4 year olds along with the option to purchase additional hours and wrap around care to enable access for working parents/carers.
Worth knowing. Free funding may not be used for Breakfast and Tea Club. A maximum of 6 hours free funding may be used in any one day at the pre-school. If using the free funding for a 6-hour block in one day, the session must commence at 8:30 a.m.
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.
Places, hours and the day
Who they take, when they are open, and what a day there includes.

- What it costs
- Meals
- Nappies
- Waiting list
No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
