## About this day nursery

Fenwood House Day Nursery Mapplewell, located in Barnsley, provides childcare on non-domestic premises and was registered with Ofsted on 25/06/2025. The nursery offers a nurturing environment where children are well cared for and staff prioritise their wellbeing, fostering a secure sense of belonging.

The curriculum is designed to cover all areas of learning, with a strong emphasis on communication and language, and includes activities that promote physical health and personal safety, such as climbing outdoors and practicing good hygiene. Leaders and staff have high expectations for children's behaviour, promoting a calm and orderly environment through positive reinforcement and consistent application of expectations.

The nursery effectively supports disadvantaged children and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) through responsive support, including one-to-one assistance and the use of a sensory room for small intervention groups. Parents are kept informed through an online platform and daily conversations, though there is a need to further strengthen communication regarding children's next steps and how parents can support learning at home.

Overall, the nursery demonstrates a commitment to providing a high-quality education and care experience for children aged 0 to 4 years.

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Disadvantaged children and those with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive responsive support.
