What it is like to attend
Children are happy and settled at the nursery. They form strong bonds with staff, which helps them to feel safe and secure. Children's confidence levels show that they feel safe. Younger children doze contentedly on their key person's lap, and readily approach them for comfort. Children engage in the activities on offer, which often trigger their curiosity. For example, babies smile and giggle as they enjoy exploring the water. Older children delight as they experiment by pouring the water down the guttering. Staff support children well to solve problems, as they work out how to make the water flow faster.
Children develop a love for reading. Staff create ample opportunities for children to look at books. They offer them lots of praise as they try to do things for themselves, helping to build their sense of responsibility effectively. For example, tidying away their activities after using them. Staff provide opportunities to enhance babies' physical development well. Babies enjoy climbing steps to use an indoor slide and show great excitement when crawling through the tunnels outside, encouraged by staff who give them praise when they reach the other end.
Children are good communicators. They use a wide range of vocabulary and quickly learn new words. Children show positive attitudes towards their learning and behave well. They develop the necessary skills in readiness for their move on to school.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- ensure that the implementation of planned activities within the curriculum is consistently effective and that all staff understand what they want children to learn n provide even more support to develop staff teaching skills to the highest level so all children receive consistent learning opportunities n strengthen communication with parents to help further support children's learning at home, so children make the best possible progress.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £105.00 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.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
