What the inspector found

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

Ofsted has looked into 3 concerns about this setting. That means something was raised and Ofsted acted on it. It does not by itself say what was found — the documents do.

What it is like to attend

Children enjoy attending this well-resourced and purposefully designed nursery.

Good staffing levels enhance the kind, caring staff's ability to respond to children's needs. Staff in the baby and toddler rooms show particularly strong skills during their interactions with children. They model language very well. Staff use several purposeful strategies, which promote children's ability to understand and use language. Toddlers show their enjoyment of music as they sing and dance with the staff.

Older children have plenty of time and space to explore what interests them. For example, they carefully build towers from magnetic shapes together with their friends. Children share their pretend food with one another in the role-play kitchen.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:

- help newer staff gain a deeper understanding of the curriculum to enable them to deliver it more effectively n review routines in the pre-school room to increase staff's focus on supporting children in their learning.

This setting re-registered. It replaced “Jack In The Box Nursery” at the same address, which had been registered since 31 March 2015. A change of owner or legal entity gives Ofsted a brand new record, so the inspections below may only cover the time since then.

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.
