Teddy Bears Nursery
GoodBirth to 8+Open for decades
A pre-school in Nuneaton for children from birth to 8+, open sessions in term time, often mornings. They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask. Rated Good by Ofsted in February 2024. Open since 1983, with 30 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 arrive happy and settle quickly at the nursery. Parents drop their children off at the entrance gate. Children are warmly greeted by staff. They smile and chat as they quickly immerse themselves in the wide range of activities and learning.
Children choose their name card and picture to self-register themselves on the
'Who's here tree'. They gather for small key-group times with their friends and talk about how they feel today. This supports children's emotional well-being. Staff praise and reassure children throughout the session. Behaviour is good. Children learn the golden rules that help them to stay safe and think about the feelings of others. They learn to cooperate, share and take turns.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support further staff to embed the curriculum so that all children's individual learning is focused throughout the session n consider how children learn about the wide range of different families, who are outside of their own personal experience.

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.
