What it's like to attend

Inspector highlights

- Children confidently enter the nursery and benefit from a whole community approach to their care and learning.
- Children, including those in receipt of additional funding or who have additional needs, make very good progress from their starting points in development on entry.
- Staff gain important information from parents to support children's emotional well-being as they settle.
- Staff closely monitor children's development and swiftly identify any emerging concerns, making timely referrals and implementing effective early intervention strategies.
- Staff instil excellent messages to children about healthy lifestyles.

Areas to develop

- 1 strengthen teaching for two-year-old children, so that all staff are fully aware of how to support their individual learning needs, to fully engage them and help them to make the best possible progress
- 2 develop the ways in which the nursery represents the children who attend, in order to help them to feel valued and included to the highest level through opportunities to observe and celebrate their own uniqueness.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children, including those in receipt of additional funding or who have additional needs, make very good progress from their starting points in development on entry. Staff closely monitor children's development and swiftly identify any emerging concerns. They make timely referrals to other professionals, and put in place effective early intervention strategies to help children to catch up.

Outdoor space

Staff help children to develop good physical skills. Babies pull themselves to standing and toddlers use chunky brushes. They confidently climb to the top of the grass mound. Staff closely supervise children, for instance as they use climbing apparatus outdoors. This helps to promote their safety and welfare.

I dont know what they're doing, but its great. My son has a speech delay and will not communicate plus it's harder to get him to understand me. Hes been here not even 2 weeks yet and hes already communicating with me back and repeating my words. He can say colours very clearly. I am very proud, so happy with this nursery!
