What it is like to attend
Children have built strong relationships with the staff team. Children are confident to move between the rooms in the nursery. This gives toddlers and pre-school children time to play together. Staff supervise children to ensure that they are safe as they free flow between the indoor and outdoor space. Children also look out for each other and will often check in on where their friends are. This helps them to build their self-confidence and learn skills from each other.
Many parents do not come into the early years setting as they would have done previously. Instead, they come into the reception area. Parents and leaders view this as a positive aspect as there are less people 'going in and out' and it is safer for children as they move around.
Children's individuality is key to the leaders' expectations of their development.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- help children to know and understand about the consequences of their behaviour and how it makes other children feel n support staff to enhance their communication skills to meet all children's needs in the toddler room.

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.
