What it is like to attend
Children are happy and safe attending this nursery. The caring and kind staff build warm relationships with the children. They prioritise the well-being of the children and ensure that they are happy and settled. On the rare occasions that children are feeling sad, staff skilfully distract them with their favourite activity, or offer them a cuddle to reassure them.
Staff support children to behave well, by calmly and consistently reminding them of the behaviour expectations. They offer warm praise when children show positive behaviours. Staff ensure that children understand the well-embedded routines.
They use songs to remind children of the routine, such as singing as the children wash their hands. Staff clearly explain to the children what will happen next during the day. This helps children to feel safe and secure.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support staff to consistently use a rich and varied range of vocabulary with the children, to help children build a wider range of vocabulary.

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.
