Prepcare Nursery Rugby
Good★ 5.0 on GoogleBirth to 8+Long established
A day nursery in Rugby for children from birth to 8+, open 08:00 to 18:00, 5 days a week. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in February 2022. Open since 2017, with 57 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
Children are happy and demonstrate they feel safe in the nursery. They show high levels of self-esteem and confidence. Babies are content and settled, including those new to the nursery. They confidently explore the easily accessible toys and resources. Babies go to staff for reassurance and respond positively to their relaxed and fun approach. Children develop high levels of independence. Babies learn to feed themselves and 'tweenies' follow instructions while they help to tidy toys away. Older children can put on their own coats and shoes.
There are high expectations for children's behaviour. Children share and take turns.
They respond promptly to gentle reminders from staff when they momentarily forget. Children learn how their behaviour affects others. Older children learn to regulate their behaviour and negotiate with others to resolve successfully any potential conflicts. Children learn about the benefits of fresh air and exercise. They take part in activities that help them to learn about healthy lifestyles, including growing and eating fruit and vegetables, and oral health.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- help children develop a greater understanding of the similarities and differences between themselves and others to further develop their awareness of diversity - work more closely with parents to share strategies to help accelerate children's acquisition of toileting skills.

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.
