What it is like to attend
Staff provide children with a first-class experience at this unique nursery. Leaders focus heavily on ensuring that children have a voice, feel safe and are respected.
They provide opportunities for children to learn about democracy and develop their negotiation skills and partnership working in the children's council. Children contribute to the menus, choose resources and make decisions about the environment. They transfer these skills into their independent play. When working as a team to make play dough, children share their views on how to make the correct consistency. They sensitively guide their friends, offering hints and tips, such as 'more flour makes it drier'. Children listen carefully to each other, waiting patiently for their turn to speak. Staff are excellent role models. They instil a culture of mutual respect and positive behaviour from an early age. Children behave impeccably and remind each other of the nursery's golden rules.
Communication and language development is a strength at the nursery. Staff support children to communicate using signs from a young age. Babies automatically sign 'please' and 'thank you' at mealtimes. This is particularly beneficial when staff are helping children who need extra support with their speech. Older children explore new vocabulary, such as 'underground', 'erupt' and

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.
