What it is like to attend
Children arrive happy and ready to learn. Staff are attentive and caring. A
consistent key-person system encourages children to settle and become familiar with staff. Children demonstrate a sense of belonging. They are keen to show visitors around and proudly talk about what they are learning.
Children make good use of the accessible and inviting resources within the nursery.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- raise the consistency of teaching and learning across the nursery, paying particular attention to the importance of giving children time to process ideas and share their thoughts, to maximise learning further n support staff to develop their knowledge of how to support early reading skills to better support the early literacy development of younger children.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- What does it cost, all in? 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.
