What it is like to attend
Children are excited to attend this friendly, welcoming setting, where they are greeted affectionately by staff. They are happy, confident and ready to learn.
Children have good relationships with staff and their peers. They are easily settled and benefit from a familiar routine. Children are engaged in activities which promote their learning and follow their current interests. For example, two-yearolds work on strengthening the muscles in their fingers to prepare them for early mark making. They use 'squirty' bottles to wash cars in a pretend car wash.
Children enjoy playing in the well-thought-out outdoor area on a daily basis in all weathers. They have opportunities to build strength on the climbing frame and slide, and improve their balance on obstacle courses. Children learn about growth and decay in the woodland area where they grow vegetables and fruits. They observe how the trees change throughout the seasons. Babies have their own outdoor area which is undercover and gives them the opportunity to explore freely.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support all staff to have a deeper knowledge of the curriculum intent throughout the setting - provide consistent and quality interactions in order to extend children's learning in mathematics.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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