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 a concern about this setting. That means something was raised and Ofsted acted on it. It does not by itself say what was found — the document does.

What it is like to attend

Children arrive happy and confidently separate from their carers. They develop strong bonds with the friendly staff who care for them. Babies demonstrate that they feel safe and secure as they snuggle up to staff who care for them. Children are kind towards one another. For example, children wait for their friends and help them to climb the slope into the wood. A child explains they use 'please' 'because it makes the magic work'. Children show high levels of independence. They can put on their wellington boots and coats. Children's enthusiasm and positive attitude towards their learning provides a good foundation to build on what they already know.

Children spend a lot of time outdoors. They visit the horses and learn how the grooms care for them. Children learn about natural habitats, such as the pond, which a heron regularly visits. Children have plenty of opportunities to be physically active. They climb trees, use tree swings and show high levels of enjoyment as they join in the race to the woods.

Care for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities is a strength of the nursery. Partnerships with other professionals are in place to support these children to make the best possible progress.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - evaluate the impact of any additional government funding on children's learning and development n strengthen the support and guidance for less-experienced staff to help them to raise the quality of their interactions with children to the highest level.

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.
