What parents say

Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection

Parents speak highly of the setting, especially in regard to how settled and happy their children are.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are well supported at this setting. Staff put some individual plans in place, with sensitive teaching, which supports children to be considerate of everyone's uniqueness. Children with SEND, or children who may need extra support, have individualised learning plans. Staff work alongside other agencies to support staff and families to apply different strategies to support individual children.

Outdoor space

Children develop their physical skills well. They access the garden, which has a range of equipment, such as a climbing frame, pretend ice-cream stall, and musical equipment. Staff encourage children's physical movement within the older children's room; however, leaders and staff have not considered how to strengthen the experiences and learning for all children outdoors, especially those children who benefit from learning outside.

Since joining this nursery, my little one has settled in beautifully. She’s fitted in so naturally, and it’s been incredible to watch her skills, confidence, and overall development excel in such a short time. She goes in each day with a big smile, which says everything. The range of activities the nursery provides is wonderful — from creative arts and sensory play to outdoor adventures and early learning opportunities. It’s clear that everything is designed to support the children’s growth in a fun, engaging, and meaningful way. We’ve noticed so many new skills emerging at home, and it’s all thanks to the thoughtful learning environment they’ve created. Communication is consistently excellent. We always feel kept in the loop, whether through daily updates, photos, or friendly chats with the team. They’re approachable, reassuring, and genuinely invested in each child’s wellbeing. Every member of staff is kind, caring, and feels like an extension of our family. They go above and beyond to make sure the children feel safe, supported, and loved. The nursery itself is warm, welcoming, clean, and clearly run with pride. We feel incredibly grateful to have found such a special place. I honestly couldn’t recommend this nursery highly enough.

We have always been extremely happy with the staff and management at Dreams Nursery. They have always ensured to prioritise the wellbeing and needs of both of our children and have always valued our voices as parents. It is evident that safeguarding is seen as a crucial part of nursery life which reasures us that our children are always in good hands. Keyworkers have always consistently updated us on our children's progress and always greet us with a warm and welcoming smile. Management have been amazing at keeping us updated on any relevant information/services avsilable that we may need to be aware of and are always willing to assist in anyway possible. Honestly I would 100% recommend parents to take their children to Dreams if you would like your child to be in a safe, fun and nurturing environment.

I enrolled my little one at around 11 months old, and he absolutely loves attending this nursery. The staff are consistently warm, friendly, and professional. My child is now 18 months and has learnt so much since joining. He enjoys his time there every day, and I am very happy with the care and support he receives. Highly recommended.

I do not recommend this nursery. Staff are not professional enough. Children are not being taught anything. Rooms are way too small for these many children! Too chaotic. Will not be sending my child there.

This the best nursery I’ve ever come across. The staff are always doing their best to help improve with the development of the children. Qualified, very professional and most caring. I’ve visited many nurseries prior to finding this nursery and easily far much better in terms of providing social and learning activities. Now I have peace of mind. I can’t recommend this nursery enough.
