What it is like to attend

Children love attending Little Angels Nursery. They enter with smiles on their faces, and even the youngest children settle down to activities quickly. The strong values are brought alive in what the nursery provides. It is a nursery that helps children to be courageous, creative, respectful and valued. Leaders have ensured that all adults uphold the highest expectations and aspirations. Children like to talk about what they are learning and what they know, such as about winter. They investigate the Arctic world and eat fruit during snack time.

Adults are wonderful role models for children. They show them how to be kind and respect others. Children are very well behaved. Consequently, the nursery is a purposeful place to learn. Life is enhanced considerably by the wide range of activities to engage in beyond the classroom, such as exploring and celebrating life in London. The school benefits from a covered outdoor play area, which is used all year round, to enhance the learning, resilience and curiosity of the children. This provides an essential opportunity to explore and encourages risk taking within a safe environment, as well as promoting high-quality opportunities for large-scale physical activities. Parents are extremely happy with the school and say their children thrive and that the provision has been 'life changing.' They receive regular information about their children's learning and are particularly appreciative of the constant stream of photographs they receive, which keeps them fully up to date with what their children are doing.

Before you ring

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.
