What it is like to attend
Children thrive in this welcoming and safe nursery. They develop close relationships with staff and arrive happy to see them. Staff provide lots of cuddles and reassurance to babies, and toddlers are keen to tell staff about what they have done with their family. Children make independent choices about their learning. For example, pre-school children choose a ball game, which inspires a large group of children to join in. They sing, name friends and roll the ball successfully to each other. This inspires their language, social and physical development.
Staff help children to develop a positive attitude to their learning. Children are eager to engage in the exciting activities staff provide. Babies demonstrate a strong exploratory impulse as they engage in sensory play. Toddlers learn to use scissors successfully and proudly demonstrate they can open pea pods. They enjoy tasting and counting peas from the pods and are supported effectively by staff.
Pre-school children are proud to show their emerging writing skills as they scribe their initials on their work. This promotes children's creative and physical skills.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should: - review the organisation of activities to take into consideration the age ranges and abilities of all children present n consider how all staff give children sufficient time to try to do things for themselves when learning new skills.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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