What it is like to attend
Children thrive in this calm and stimulating environment, where staff meet their individual needs precisely. Dedicated staff get to know children and their families very well before they start at the setting. They visit children at home and gather detailed information about their interests and development. A real strength of the setting is the wonderful care and nurturing relationships that staff forge with children. This enables young children to feel emotionally secure and safe.
The beautiful environment which staff create in all the rooms and outdoor spaces gives a strong sense of the success of their high expectations combined with the daily structures. Outdoor learning is an integral part of the daily routine. Children have superb opportunities to learn about nature and the wider world around them.
Staff expertly teach children the differences between acorns and beech seeds.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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 £20.00 a session 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.
- 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.
