What it is like to attend
Children arrive eager to learn and play in this inclusive and caring nursery. They build strong bonds with staff, who are responsive to children's emotional and physical needs. This ensures that children feel safe and secure.
Leaders of the nursery have identified the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on children and families. They understand that some children may feel anxious when separating from their parents. As a result, staff ensure that settling-in sessions for children are suited to their individual needs. Children receive a home visit from staff before they attend the nursery. Staff gather a wealth of information about children's likes and dislikes. This helps children to settle quickly.
Children enjoy a range of activities and experiences at the nursery. Babies and toddlers become engrossed in their play as they pretend to wash the ride-on cars.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- consider the routines and timings of nappy changes so that children's learning and play are not interrupted n review the supervision of handwashing to promote good hygiene routines with young children.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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