Our ethos

What it's like

The provision requires improvement. Staff provide a calm and caring approach that supports children's emotional well-being, but leaders and staff do not effectively plan for each child's unique needs, which leads to disengagement, particularly for older children. Children form affectionate relationships with staff and peers, confidently explore the nursery and enjoy outdoor play, but the learning environment and planning limit their progress.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff provide some targeted support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), using transitional objects to help them adapt to changes in routine and support their personal and emotional well‑being. However, leaders do not effectively identify weaker staff practice, which limits the progress made by children with SEND.

Outdoor space

Children enjoy spending time outdoors in the nursery garden and take part in physical activities such as running, climbing, throwing hoops and using the slide. However, the outdoor curriculum is not well planned and lacks sufficient resources (for example, insufficient water in the tray and limited play‑cooking resources) to extend children's play.

Adorable child care nursery is one of the best nursery we have experienced in Dagenham. The teachers are very friendly including staff members. My son goes to this nursery and we have noticed an immense progression in his social behaviour and development. Children are provided with a good healthy meal and have complete attention of the staff. I would suggest if anyone wants their child to start nursery with a safe environment, please do not hesitate to contact Adorable child care.
