## About this day nursery

Bubbly Nursery is a specialist setting in Bellingham Green, supporting children aged 2 to 9 years old who have special educational needs or developmental delays. The day nursery prides itself on working closely with therapists and other professionals to create individualised learning plans that cater to each child's unique learning style.

They offer a high staff-to-child ratio and a team experienced in supporting children with conditions such as Autism, cerebral palsy, and Down Syndrome. The curriculum is built on early identification of needs, following the Special Education Code Policy (2014), and incorporates activities that address fine and gross motor skills, sensory needs, and social communication.

Sign language is also offered as an extra curriculum to help children express themselves and stay focused. Bubbly Nursery collaborates with various external organisations and professionals, including Child Development Teams, early years advisors, and portage services, to ensure comprehensive support.

They place a strong emphasis on parent partnerships, with key workers providing weekly feedback on each child's progress. The day nursery operates from Monday to Thursday, closing on Fridays, half terms, Easter, and during the summer holidays, requiring a minimum attendance of two days per week to facilitate routine and key-worker relationships.

The manager is a qualified nurse and registered health visitor with NHS experience, leading a dedicated team.

Our ethos

Bubbly Nursery is a specialist setting that supports children aged 2 to 9 with special educational needs and developmental delays. Their approach is built on early identification, individualised learning plans tailored to each child's unique style, and close collaboration with therapists and other professionals. They incorporate activities to address fine and gross motor skills, sensory needs, and social communication, and offer sign language as an extra curriculum. Parent partnerships are emphasised through weekly feedback from key workers.

What it's like

Leaders and staff lack understanding and do not consistently implement the nursery's policies and procedures, leading to compromised children's welfare and safety due to breaches in legal requirements. Despite this, staff are confident in child protection reporting and leaders are committed to an inclusive service, recognising when children need time away from the main group. However, activities and routines often fail to consider children's developmental needs, languages, or backgrounds, and leaders are not ambitious enough for all children.

What it's like to attend

Inspector highlights

- Children start to understand the differing needs of their friends and begin to develop their social skills.
- Staff supervise children effectively outdoors, ensuring safety during risky play.
- Some children show determination and skill as they climb, hang and swing from larger equipment outdoors, gaining confidence in their physical abilities.

- 2 Leaders fail to complete additional criminal records checks for staff who have lived or worked abroad, as required.
- 3 Leaders and staff are unclear about the nursery's emergency evacuation procedure.
- 4 Staff require more support to develop their teaching skills to help children engage in activities that build on what they know and can do, and reflect their languages and backgrounds.
- 5 The expectations of leaders and staff for some of the most-able children are too low.
- 6 Leaders are unaware when some requirements are not being met, or procedures are not correctly implemented.
- 7 Very occasionally, there are not enough qualified staff on the premises.

My son has absolutely LOVED the Bubbly Holiday Club over the summer holidays. This provision has been an enormous help. The staff are so kind and loving. They also fully understand his complex needs. When I drop him off at Bubbly I don’t feel any anxiety. Because I know that my little boy will be very well taken care of and he always has so much fun. I 100% recommend Bubbly nursery AND the holiday club to any SEND child.

My son had a lovely time during the summer holidays club. He’s really enjoyed playing and shopping with the other children. It can be very difficult to find care for a special needs child however, Francis was absolutely lovely and welcoming. I will be booking again once the club has spaces.

My 3-year-old son was very hyperactive, constantly running around, had difficulty focusing, and struggled with speech delays. His previous nursery couldn’t cope with his needs, and I had to withdraw him. After a lot of searching, I found Bubbly Nursery—even though it’s not in my borough, it has truly been a lifesaver. My son has autism spectrum with speech delay, and within just a few months at Bubbly Nursery, he has made incredible progress. He is now trying to communicate more, speaking many new words, and even forming short sentences. Frances and her amazing team have a deep understanding of children with special needs, and their support has made all the difference for us. I’m beyond grateful for everything they’ve done. Highly recommended!

Bubbly Nursery was a true blessing when I needed it most. My 3-year-old son, undiagnosed with ADHD and speech delay at the time, couldn't settle in other nurseries. Bubbly was the only place that truly understood and supported children with special needs. In just six months, I saw amazing progress—he started making eye contact, trying to speak, and even socialising. I'm so grateful to Frances and her team for their care and dedication. Highly recommend to any parent feeling lost.

It can be very difficult to find care for a special needs child however, Francis was absolutely lovely and welcoming. I will be booking again once the club has spaces.",

            "reviewBody": "My 3-year-old son was very hyperactive, constantly running around, had difficulty focusing, and struggled with speech delays. His previous nursery couldn’t cope with his needs, and I had to withdraw him.\n\nAfter a lot of searching, I found Bubbly Nursery—even though it’s not in my borough, it has truly been a lifesaver. My son has autism spectrum with speech delay, and within just a few months at Bubbly Nursery, he has made incredible progress. He is now trying to communicate more, speaking many new words, and even forming short sentences.\n\nFrances and her amazing team have a deep understanding of children with special needs, and their support has made all the difference for us. I’m beyond grateful for everything they’ve done.\n\nHighly recommended!",

            "reviewBody": "Bubbly Nursery was a true blessing when I needed it most. My 3-year-old son, undiagnosed with ADHD and speech delay at the time, couldn't settle in other nurseries. Bubbly was the only place that truly understood and supported children with special needs. In just six months, I saw amazing progress—he started making eye contact, trying to speak, and even socialising. I'm so grateful to Frances and her team for their care and dedication. Highly recommend to any parent feeling lost.",
