What the inspector found

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend

Children are happy at this warm and friendly nursery. During the COVID-19

pandemic, staff kept in touch with children and their families to support their wellbeing and their learning. An effective key-person system helps children to feel safe and to have a strong sense of belonging. Staff support children to understand how to manage their feelings and behaviour in an age-appropriate way.

Children have positive attitudes towards their learning. For example, they are excited to take a picture of the towers that they make with small blocks. Toddlers develop their small-muscle skills while filling and emptying buckets of sand and while making marks in paint. Older children engage in role play and decide that they 'need seat belts' to travel to the moon. They giggle with delight while running away from 'aliens'. Children practise their counting skills and number recognition.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:

- give more incisive feedback to staff, to support them in raising their practice and the quality of education to a consistently high level n strengthen the arrangements for assessment, to help children to make the best possible progress.

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.
