Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff have identified some children need help to regulate their emotions and behaviours. They have put interventions in place to support this, such as a calm and quiet area for children to relax when appropriate. The nursery manager has introduced a screening tool to assess children's communication and language skills throughout their time at the setting. This helps staff to swiftly identify any emerging needs and provide intervention at the earliest opportunity.

Outdoor space

The curriculum for children's physical development is strong. Outdoors, children independently access a climbing wall. Staff risk assess the nursery environment, both indoors and outdoors, before allowing children to freely explore.

Before I brought my little girl Besy I researched other nurseries and I didn't like what I saw. When I came for the first time with the girl, it gave me a wonderful feeling. The staff is wonderful, they behave wonderfully with children and the nursery is very clean. I recommend from the bottom of my heart ❤️
