## About this day nursery

Goosehill Private Nursery, established in 2001 and located in Morpeth, is an outstanding childcare setting for children aged 0-4. The nursery is open Monday to Friday, from 8:00 to 17:30, offering a nurturing and inclusive environment.

The dedicated staff are committed to children's full potential, integrating a movement-focused curriculum at the heart of their approach, which supports children's brain development and neurological growth. Each room includes thoughtfully planned movement areas where children can explore different ways of moving their bodies, such as using a peanut-shaped ball.

This focus on physical development supports self-esteem, communication, and language skills. The nursery excels in supporting all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those who speak English as an additional language (EAL).

Gaps in learning are swiftly addressed with targeted actions, and external professionals regularly collaborate with staff to provide comprehensive support. The setting also boasts a strong outdoor learning provision, with all children enjoying physical activity in the movement area, outdoor space, or at forest school, promoting emotional regulation and mindfulness.

Leaders are passionate about professional development, eagerly sharing their knowledge to benefit the wider early years sector.

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Gaps in children's learning are identified quickly through robust monitoring, and staff take swift, targeted action to ensure each child receives the help they need. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive sensitive and effective support, with external professionals such as speech and language therapists and physiotherapists welcomed into the setting for collaborative work. Strong partnerships with parents further help staff tailor support to each child's needs.

Outdoor space

All children enjoy physical activity, either in the movement area in their rooms, in the outdoor area or at forest school.
