What it is like to attend
All children receive an exemplary standard of care and education. They wholeheartedly benefit from such warm and loving interactions with the staff who care for them. This supports their emotional and personal development superbly.
All children become deeply involved in the wealth of exciting activities on offer to them in both the indoor and outdoor environments. Where children play, there is a wonderful atmosphere of fun and delight. Children's behaviour is excellent. They consistently interact very well with each other and have high regard for others. For example, one helps another to open the lid on their bottle saying, 'it goes like this, you turn it like that'.
Toddlers are adventurous and enthusiastically encouraged by staff to challenge their physical abilities, for example walking across pallets and through tyres of varying sizes. They create their own games and are excellently supported by staff to develop their ideas.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? 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.
