What it is like to attend
Children enjoy a sequenced curriculum that builds on their skills and knowledge over time. Babies and those who are new, settle happily as staff offer a warm welcome to them. This helps children to feel safe and settle in quickly. Children have a positive attitude to learning. Children's emotional well-being is supported well, as children are given lots of reassurance and eagerly seek staff for comfort and cuddles. This helps to build on their self-esteem and confidence.
Children enjoy a wide range of learning experiences. They enthusiastically play indoors and outdoors. They are eager to learn, and their efforts are praised and encouraged. Overall, children behave well. For example, during construction activities, children invite others to play and they collect additional bricks for their friends. Children are able to make choices about their play. For example, toddlers engage in sensory activities, including foam and water, which develops their creativity and imagination. Older children show excitement and curiosity as they make play dough together and remember the ingredients. They learn about colour mixing as they knead the different-coloured dough.
Older children build strong friendships. They play cooperatively while playing imaginative games or during outside play. They develop good social skills as they negotiate and take turns well. Overall, children are well prepared for their future learning, including their eventual transition to school.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- support all staff to extend and challenge children's learning, to help them to achieve as much as they can.

No dataset holds any of this. Two parents telling us the same thing puts it on the page for whoever looks next.
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.
