What it is like to attend
Children happily arrive at this homely and welcoming nursery. They leave their parents or carers with ease and are eager to begin their play. The caring team of staff offer children a warm welcome. They greet them with a smile and a big cuddle. Children demonstrate they feel safe and secure. They engage in a wide range of play activities which staff plan around their individual interests and next steps in learning. Children listen attentively to stories read by enthusiastic staff.
They excitedly join in with action songs and rhymes. Babies are provided with lots of opportunities for exploratory play. They use their senses to investigate textures, such as cereal. Staff sit alongside them to offer encouragement and support. They use single words and associative sounds to support the youngest children's emerging speech.
Children learn the importance of good hygiene. Staff remind them to wash their hands at regular intervals throughout the day. Children enjoy nutritious homecooked meals and snacks prepared by the on-site cook. They have daily opportunities for fresh air and exercise. Children have fun as they play outside in the well-resourced garden. They excitedly climb on small apparatus and ride on wheeled toys. This helps children to develop strength in their bodies. Staff sensitively attend to children's personal care.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- review staff's practice during daily routines, such as mealtimes, to maximise learning opportunities for all children n provide children with even more experiences to learn about diversity in the world around them.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Is £34.00 a day still the rate? 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.
