What the inspector found

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

Ofsted has looked into 3 concerns about this setting. That means something was raised and Ofsted acted on it. It does not by itself say what was found — the documents do.

What it is like to attend

Children have secure attachments with their key person. Staff are attentive in meeting children's individual needs. For example, babies are consulted before having their intimate care needs met. Staff continually talk with babies about what is happening and engage them in these routines. This supports them to feel safe.

Staff provide positive role models as they teach children about the importance of kindness. They continually praise children when they are sharing and taking turns.

Older children say, 'I love reading and playing with my friends at nursery. The teachers always tell me I am kind.' This supports children's development of positive self-esteem and having a positive attitude towards their learning.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:

- strengthen teaching further to ensure that children of all ages receive consistent, high-quality interactions to support their developing communication and language skills.

Before you ring

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.
