What it is like to attend
Children are happy, confident and settled. There are high expectations for children to build on what they know and develop their ideas, with support from skilled staff.
Children play in a safe, inviting and well-designed environment. There is a strong focus on outdoor play. Children develop great enthusiasm to explore and learn about the world around them. They spread out across the vast outdoor area and find interesting things to see and do. Children take risks as they use various equipment to build, climb and balance. This promotes children's physical development well.
Children in the baby room benefit from their personal needs being met by the caring and nurturing staff. Babies and toddlers are curious to explore a wide variety of sensory activities. They have fun investigating different materials, such as animal figures, dinosaurs, natural materials and vegetables in their play. Older toddlers have fun copying action songs, listening to stories and pretending to bake with a variety of cooking utensils, flour and spices. Older children in the pre-school room develop essential skills for future learning. They build excellent friendships and play imaginatively and collaboratively. For example, children deeply engage in the exploratory kitchen, using herbs and vegetables. They excitedly tell staff that they are having a 'salad picnic'. Children play harmoniously. Staff regularly praise them for helping, sharing and being kind to others. All children make good progress in their learning, including those who receive additional funding.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - focus more precisely on the intended learning of activities, to help children make the best possible progress.

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.
