Bumbles Orrell Park

About this day nursery

Bumbles Orrell Park is a day nursery in Liverpool for children aged from birth to four years. It is open from Monday to Friday between 8am and 6pm for 51 weeks of the year. Ofsted inspected the day nursery in October 2021 and gave it an overall rating of Good. The inspector found that children are happy, confident, and form strong bonds with the staff. Parents commented on how reassured they were by the settling-in approach for new children and for those moving between rooms.

The report noted that children's physical development is supported effectively, with daily yoga sessions and supervised tooth brushing used to promote healthy lifestyles. The nursery has a special educational needs coordinator to support staff and arrange external help where required. To improve, the inspector recommended that the organisation of activities in the pre-school room be refined to encourage deeper levels of concentration. Parents told the inspector they appreciated the guidance staff provided to support children's learning at home.

Our ethos

Bumbles Nursery focuses on a personalised approach, understanding each child's individual needs, interests, and routines to ensure they are happy, confident, and engaged. They aim to equip children with the confidence and social skills for their next educational stage, understanding this is crucial for learning and development.

What it's like

Children are happy and confident at this nursery. Staff acknowledge that some children, including those born during the COVID-19 pandemic, may need more emotional support when starting at the nursery, so they provide extra time for them to settle in and progress. This helps to build children's resilience.
