Nineteen nurseries and children's centres are to stay open following a consultation exercise.
The settings provide free places for low-income families, with 150 places reserved for parents who pay fees, the majority council workers.
There are 23 community nurseries providing 868 full-time childcare places. Six of these are based at children's centres.
A council spokesperson confirmed that having reviewed arrangements for nursery provision, the future of the 19 nurseries and children's centres was 'secure for the foreseeable time'.
More than 200 nursery staff had been faced with redundancy when the council revealed plans earlier this year to move its daycare services into children's centres to save £1.45m (News, 28 January).
However, the council is expected to confirm that four nurseries will close because they are in buildings unfit for purpose.
Claremont nursery in Sparkbrook and Tyborn Road nursery were both forced to close in the summer because of flooding and health and safety issues.
The other two settings earmarked for closure are Clopton Road and Bacchus Road nurseries.Tennyson Road children's centre is to be moved from its existing site.
Councillor Les Lawrence, cabinet member for children, young people and families, said, 'The four nurseries proposed for closure are in buildings that are not fit for purpose and would require considerable cost to repair. The six nurseries designated as children's centres will not be affected.
'There has been a commitment to no compulsory redundancies where possible, and staff being displaced by the changes are being redeployed within other nurseries or elsewhere within the early years sector.'
