I would be called by Rachel every time he was in after just an hour each day due to a “no crying policy” which again I was told by Rachel the policy is in place as it’s not fair to let the children cry, after his first hour I was called and asked to change my days but we had already agreed to those days 3 months earlier and I had made arrangements around our agreement, we arranged to do half days to ease him in but still they would call after an hour, when I would pick him up he would be fine and then he would get upset as he’s being taken away from to play area to go home as “he’s really upset” and needs to be picked up, they didn’t give my child a chance at all, and expected me to pay for lunch dinner and snacks although he was only there an hour each day and hadn’t eaten anything while being there. They would also call me to pick him up and when I would get there they would say there’s people tested positive for covid and nursery will be shut and I would be contacted as to when my child would be back at nursery which they never did I had to contact them the day before he was supposed to be in and they then told me he was fine to go in, I find this completely disgusting that my child was treat like this, he has been in his new nursery for a week now and is ready to start his full day tomorrow with no problems whatsoever. Also I have proof screenshots of phone calls after only an hour each day. Would 1000% NOT recommend this nursery!!!",

## About this day nursery

Childsplay Day Nursery, located in Catherine Beckett Community Centre in Preston, was registered in 2023 and provides childcare for children aged 2 to 4 years. The nursery operates Monday to Friday, all year round, with sessions from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm.

The setting benefits from a team of six childcare staff, five of whom hold a Level 3 childcare qualification, with one staff member working towards the same. Staff at Childsplay form warm relationships with children and their families, ensuring children feel safe and supported as they settle into nursery life.

Leaders at the nursery effectively utilise funding to provide unique experiences for children, such as weekly sports sessions and an annual trip, enriching their learning beyond the basic curriculum. The nursery is committed to providing funded early years education and strives to create a comfortable and engaging environment for all children.

Our ethos

Childsplay Day Nursery is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, focusing on children's natural development and their relationship with their environment. They foster a collaborative atmosphere where children's voices are heard and learning is guided by their interests, supported by parental involvement and staff teamwork.

What it's like

Caring staff form warm relationships with children and families, helping them to settle and feel safe. Although leaders have a curriculum focused on communication and school readiness, inconsistencies in staff understanding and implementation mean children do not always develop their vocabulary, listening skills, and independence effectively.

Although leaders have a curriculum focused on communication and school readiness, inconsistencies in staff understanding and implementation mean children do not always develop their vocabulary, listening skills, and independence effectively.

Inspector highlights

-   Caring staff form warm relationships with children and families, helping them to settle and feel safe. 
-   Children arrive happy, and staff support children to settle through reading stories in cosy spaces. 
-   Children choose from a range of activities on offer, and staff join in with their play experiences. 
-   Leaders use funding effectively to give children experiences and opportunities they would not normally have, such as weekly sports sessions and an annual trip. 
-   Parents value the staff team and feel comfortable to approach them if needed. 

Areas to develop

-   1 The provider has not continued to meet the requirements of the 'Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage'. They failed to notify Ofsted of required information. Changes to the committee members were not reported. As a result, some committee members have not had their suitability checked, as is required. However, there is minimal impact on children's safety, as they do not have any unsupervised contact with children. 
-   2 The curriculum for developing children's independence and self-help skills is not consistently implemented. Staff do not allow children the time and freedom to try and do simple tasks for themselves. For instance, some staff wash children's hands, pour their water and put their shoes on. This limits children's opportunities to practise and develop vital skills ready for their move to school. 
-   3 Staff do not consistently implement effective strategies to support children's communication and language development. They do not emphasise key words or introduce new words to support the breadth of children's vocabulary. This impacts on children's ability to communicate. The communication and language curriculum is not yet good. 
-   4 Staff do not consistently support children's interactions. They fail to intervene, during free play, when children throw toys and grab at others. Staff do not teach children why the behaviour is unacceptable and the expectations at nursery. This impacts on children's engagement in learning. 
-   5 Parent partnerships are in place. Parents value the staff team and feel comfortable to approach them if needed. Leaders seek information when children start, but this lacks detail. Staff share information with parents about activities and care practices. However, parents are not always aware of what their children are learning and their next steps. This means parents are unable to support their children's learning at home. 
-   6 Leaders conduct regular supervisions. Although there is a focus on staff training, this is not precise enough. Targets set for staff do not reflect the vital areas that they need support with. Staff are unaware of what they need to do to improve practice. Therefore, quality does not improve over time.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are identified, and leaders consult specialist professionals. Although there is a clear focus on supporting children with SEND, leaders and staff do not always act on advice and suggestions. For instance, key persons do not support children in achieving next steps, and leaders do not assist parents in obtaining additional funding as recommended. This impacts on the progress children make.

Outdoor space

The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact that this was having on children's learning.

EAL / language support

Staff support children who are learning English as an additional language by finding out key words in their home languages. However, staff sometimes do not use vital communication aids enough and targets set are not always aimed at closing developmental gaps.

Ousted report says it all. I would advise all to read the report before sending your child there. Staff are rude, unprofessional and didn't answer or reply to any of my messages but did answer from a different number! They are closed all school holidays and seem to take Annual Leave on top of that. Had to send my child there due to close proximity otherwise would not have bothered.

Extremely unprofessional! My child was at this nursery for around 3 weeks and did 3/4 hours in total out of the 45 he was funded for. I would be called by Rachel every time he was in after just an hour each day due to a “no crying policy” which again I was told by Rachel the policy is in place as it’s not fair to let the children cry, after his first hour I was called and asked to change my days but we had already agreed to those days 3 months earlier and I had made arrangements around our agreement, we arranged to do half days to ease him in but still they would call after an hour, when I would pick him up he would be fine and then he would get upset as he’s being taken away from to play area to go home as “he’s really upset” and needs to be picked up, they didn’t give my child a chance at all, and expected me to pay for lunch dinner and snacks although he was only there an hour each day and hadn’t eaten anything while being there. They would also call me to pick him up and when I would get there they would say there’s people tested positive for covid and nursery will be shut and I would be contacted as to when my child would be back at nursery which they never did I had to contact them the day before he was supposed to be in and they then told me he was fine to go in, I find this completely disgusting that my child was treat like this, he has been in his new nursery for a week now and is ready to start his full day tomorrow with no problems whatsoever. Also I have proof screenshots of phone calls after only an hour each day. Would 1000% NOT recommend this nursery!!!

My son has just started his settling in period, he is not a confident little boy but after only 3 hours he’s talking with the staff who are so polite always smiling. They all seem to love their job there always happy to help you. My son comes home talking about the time he’s spent there, it’s such a warm friendly place to be and after seeing him today playing and smiling I know I’ve made the best choice.
