What you might pay

What it is like to attend
Children arrive happy in a safe and well-organised setting. They quickly become engaged in a wide variety of learning opportunities on offer. Children make good progress from their starting points and settle with the support of caring staff.
Babies show excitement and joy as children arrive into the room, showing the positive relationship that has been developed between all children and staff. Staff know children well and use children's interests to further support their development. Children show enjoyment in their learning as they engage in imaginative play. For example, they use play dough to make cakes. They then use resources to shape and mould the play dough, putting it in the pretend oven to cook.
Children behave well and follow the rules and routines of the setting. This prepares them for their future move to school. Older children show a good understanding of the daily routines as they wash their hands independently before sitting down for their meals. Children show a good awareness of the importance of keeping healthy as they talk about the germs on their hands before they wash them off. Younger children feed themselves during lunchtime, further promoting their independence.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- provide staff with further support to help them focus more precisely on the learning intention of planned activities, to help children make even better progress n review the organisation of some transitions throughout the day to further support children to remain focused and engaged.

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.
