What it is like to attend
When children arrive at the setting, staff give them a warm welcome. They offer children cuddles and reassurance when they need it, and this helps them to settle.
Children are happy and display a positive attitude to learning.
Staff plan fun and exciting activities to extend children's mathematical knowledge.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen partnerships with parents further to ensure that all parents have clear information about the curriculum and their child's day n build on the home-learning strategies already in place to include helping children to develop a love of reading at home.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
