What it is like to attend
Children behave well and show enthusiasm to join in with activities. For instance, when children see their friends listening to the 'sea' by holding seashells to their ears, they eagerly ask if they can have a go. Staff encourage children to share their own knowledge by asking them what sea animals they know, and children are keen to participate in the conversation. Staff extend this further by naming some more sea animals. This enables children to hear new words. This enhances their developing communication skills and their understanding of the world.
Children enjoy listening to stories being read to them, playing turn-taking games with staff, and using the climbing equipment. This helps children to build on their communication skills through the variety of interactions with their friends and staff.
This also supports them to build on their physical development.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen communication with parents, so they receive more information about their child's progress and how to support their development at home n review and improve mealtime routines, so that children are not left waiting for long periods and their needs are consistently met.

Still missing for Nestots Day Nursery

- Nappies
- Waiting list
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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £91.84 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.
