What it is like to attend
Staff offer children a caring and friendly greeting. This helps children to settle on arrival and happily say goodbye to their parents before playing contentedly in the bright and welcoming nursery. Overall, staff plan effective educational programmes that help all children to make good progress and get ready for school. For example, children enjoy sociable daily routines that promote their independence. They brush their teeth to fun songs, serve the healthy lunch, pour drinks and peel fruit.
Children can freely access the nursery garden, which staff have recently developed.
Staff support tidy-up time through photos and labels, helping children to learn where things belong.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - plan and differentiate the curriculum and teaching more sharply, to take greater account of two-year-old children's individual learning needs and interests n strengthen the key-person system, so that staff provide increased levels of support for newer children, to promote their engagement and emotional wellbeing further n develop the ways in which the nursery represents the children who attend, in order to help children to feel valued and included to the highest level through opportunities to observe and celebrate their own uniqueness.

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.
