What it is like to attend
Children are enthusiastic about coming into the setting and enjoy playing with friends. Newly enrolled children settle in within weeks and form secure bonds with key persons. For example, babies cuddle up to their key persons as they are being read to. Older children confidently express themselves and are friendly towards staff and visitors. They ask and answer questions during activities and clearly follow instructions. For example, they discussed features of items they brought in from home and answered questions posed by their friends. This further builds their confidence and ability to express their thoughts.
Children behave well and are respectful towards friends, staff and visitors. They take turns and wait patiently when required. They play and explore within a safe and secure environment, using resources and equipment appropriately. For example, children said 'thank you' to staff when handed snack bowls and allowed other children to come in front of them as they lined up in single file. They show a high level of concentration and problem-solving skills during activities. For example, children replaced their scoops with spoons when the level of shaving foam in a bowl reduced and they could no longer scoop it. Staff recognised the children's initiatives and gave lots of praise. This encourages children to persevere at their chosen task. Room leaders have a clear aim of what children should be learning and the plan is ambitious for all children.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen staff's interactions with children to further enhance children's communication and language skills.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Is £75.00 a day still the rate? 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.
