A day nursery in Rugby for children from birth to 5, open 07:45 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 They do not publish prices, so that is the first thing to ask.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 January 2024. Open since 2014, with 40 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 enter nursery happily and separate well from their parents. Established key-person systems mean that staff know children and their learning needs well.
This comes from time spent with parents getting to know all about their children, their individual routines and things they enjoy doing. Attractively displayed resources and activities capture children's interest, and children settle quickly into their chosen play. Staff use their knowledge of children's interests to provide learning opportunities both inside and outdoors. As a result, children are engaged, motivated and settled.
Children benefit from an interesting and varied curriculum. They are eager to become involved in the activities, and staff respond to their excitement. Toddlers enjoy sitting down with their friends to listen to a story. Staff encourage them to join in with familiar words and rhymes. Pre-school children enjoy creating their own potions, using a range of different-coloured paints and various materials.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- encourage children to recognise risks for themselves and build on their awareness of how to keep themselves safe in the woodland area n make the most of the available resources to enhance children's learning and understanding of the world around them even more.

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.
