Inspection #10249027 · Source: Ofsted View full Ofsted report (https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50207142) ## What parents say Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection > "Parents describe how well their children are progressing and how useful they find the feedback they receive." > "They explain the key skills staff are focusing on with their children and understand the reasons why." > "Parents speak highly of the staff and leadership team and the feedback they receive." Inclusion & environment ## How they support every child SEND provision Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive good levels of support and challenge from staff. However, consideration is not always given to what more staff could do while waiting for specific targets and support from professionals, particularly for children experiencing difficulties with speech and language. Outdoor space Children develop their strength and coordination as they "squeeze" to undo clip fastenings on outdoor clothing, demonstrating confidence and persistence. Staff observe the quality of education provided, both indoors and outdoors, and assess its impact on children's learning. ## Google Reviews of Country Kids Day Nursery Apperley Bridge 4.1 (16 Google reviews) Jenna Shackleton 7 years ago My daughter has been coming here for nearly 2 years (from the age of 1, she is now nearly 3). She has made so much progress and loves to go. The staff are welcoming and lovely. I have never had any issues while being here. They are always introducing new things for the children to be involved in like yoga. She has made lots of friends in the time she has been there and the staff are really good at keeping to what I would like for my daughter like naps etc. They have been on many trips including the woods, yeadon tarn, visits from Santa. They have lots of parent craft days which are great. They also have a play centre next door which my daughter also loves to visit Read on Google (https://www.google.com/maps/reviews/data=!4m6!14m5!1m4!2m3!1sChdDSUhNMG9nS0VJQ0FnSUNvallTazZBRRAB!2m1!1s0x487be3caf2058697:0xe64f096eccdadf8d) Stephanie Brown 7 years ago Disappointed that I'm only giving one star. I visited today with my 3 year old son. It was cold. Under 4s room had no toys but a kitchen but nothing in it to play with. There were a few books and that's it. The climbing frame and ball pool is good but could do with a steam clean and the food was terrible. It's a shame as my son had an amazing party here in July so I don't know what's happened.

The staff are very friendly and keep you updated with everything your child does within the day. My son is always so happy after a day here and that’s what matters to me the most, I will be sending my second son here too once he’s here. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Staff don't know how to assist using bathroom breaks, ever seem to be around if you child gets hurt, never notices cuts and bruises on your child and act surprised when you bring it up, they don't help your child dress appropriately according to weather and blame it on the fact the weather was different 6 hours ago, they randomly decide if you can't bring your child in that day/week and fail to make records of owed hours, tell your child they are a different age than they are, don't feed your child sometimes because they 'got busy' and 'forgot' to serve their meals, they self diagnose the kids as to what they want for example autistic and then suspend children because they can't look after more than 5 kids at any time, pretend there is a contribution until you register then tell you it's actually a mandatory fee you must pay. I could go on and on. Relieved I pulled my child out now though.
