Inclusion & environment
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those in receipt of additional funding are incredibly well supported. The SEND co-ordinator is extremely knowledgeable and provides valuable support to staff and parents. Robust monitoring of children's progress enables staff to identify and address any potential gaps in children's learning and development swiftly. Staff work in close partnership with a range of services to ensure that children receive the support they need in order to make the best possible progress. The needs of all children are incredibly well met.
Staff provide a wealth of opportunities for children to extend their mathematical skills, both indoors and outside. The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors.

Read on GoogleSuch an amazing nursery, my daughter started here when she was 12 months and she absolutely loves it. Plenty of activities to keep her having fun and the staff are just fabulous! Definitely recommend.
Read on GoogleMy daughter started here at 9 months old and had come on tremendously. All the staff are lovely, very helpful and always there to help and Bethany has lots of fun when she comes to nursery and loves her dinners! Would definitely recommend to friends and family :)
Read on GoogleThis is a genuinely brilliant nursery, made extra special by the fantastic staff, nothing is too much for them. My son has been attending three days a week since he was 12 months old and he absolutely loves it. The atmosphere is lovely and welcoming and every member of staff loves the children, and takes the time to really get to know each child as an individual. It’s become a secure, happy home from home for him and he’s learned so much and takes part in loads of interesting, fun activities. He’s growing into a kind, confident and very happy little boy and I honestly couldn’t be happier, I don’t usually write reviews but this place deserves to be recognised. I’d give it more than 5/5 if I could.
