What it is like to attend
Children are excited to attend this nursery. They are greeted by enthusiastic staff, who are tuned into their interests and individual needs. Babies are content and feel safe. They confidently explore the environment and are encouraged to engage in messy play activities.
Children experience an exciting curriculum. Staff present information clearly, and carefully plan and consider what children need to learn for them to flourish and succeed. Children learn new skills and knowledge, and staff have high expectations of them. For example, children understand that you need specialist equipment to visit outer space as there is 'no gravity' and understand that 'H20' is the scientific term for water.
Children are well mannered and sociable. They negotiate with each other and learn how to cooperatively take turns and share resources. When children have difficulties, staff swiftly manage this and redirect their behaviours. Children of all ages learn about emotions and feelings through a love of stories, social connection and the use of sign language. They are supported to express themselves and share how they are feeling.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen staff knowledge and help children to deepen their understanding and appreciation of diversity n extend support and coaching for less-experienced staff to provide greater consistency in supporting children's language skills.

What to ask them
Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
