What it is like to attend
Children are happy and secure at this welcoming nursery. Staff are supportive and engage children in interesting activities. Children enjoy a range of learning experiences which enable them to make good progress. Children are confident and freely explore their surroundings. Babies enjoy sensory play while they explore different textures, such as wood and metal objects. They show wonder when they push hoops through large cardboard tubes. They excitedly clap their hands as they watch them come out the other side. Staff gently support babies by staying close and encouraging new vocabulary.
Toddlers are inquisitive when they explore a rice activity. They concentrate well when they skilfully scoop rice into pots using a range of utensils. Staff introduce simple mathematical concepts during play, such as counting and learning colours and shapes. Toddlers learn how to engage with their peers. Outdoors, they use their imagination as they sit in a box together and pretend it is a rocket ship. Preschool children are confident communicators. They excitedly identify money spiders in the outdoor area and describe them as 'golden'. Children behave well and understand expectations. They respond positively to gentle reminders from staff to share and take turns. Younger children are supported to manage their feelings and older children show care and concern for each other.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review the organisation of larger group activities for the pre-school children, to ensure that all children remain fully engaged and interested in their learning n monitor the curriculum for babies outdoor play more closely to provide a richer range of play experiences to further support babies learning and development.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- 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.
