What it is like to attend
Staff are nurturing and caring in this nursery. They are deployed effectively and children are always well supervised. Leaders have a good oversight of the nursery and spend time in each room supporting staff. This helps ensure that children's needs are well met. Staff support children during their play and while they are participating in activities. Children get daily fresh air and exercise in the outdoor space. They move their bodies in different ways. This helps to build their small and large muscles. Staff plan learning experiences that capture the interests of children.
For example, children delight in putting on their wet weather suits and wellington boots to splash in puddles. They have great fun playing together in the water area, where they practise filling and emptying different containers.
The staff team in this nursery has gone through some changes. The team have developed strong bonds and more experienced staff are supporting newer staff effectively. This ensures that children continue to thrive in this nursery. Staff support children to learn how to identify different emotions. They also help children to understand how they can self-regulate. Children can go to designated calm areas to relax and focus on their breathing if they get overwhelmed. Therefore, children are starting to learn how their behaviour impacts others.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support all staff to sequence children's learning experiences, including through their play, to continue to help children develop the skills required for their next stage in learning.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
