As a result, all children make good progress from their starting points in development. Outdoor space Children have daily access to outdoor space, where they can move in different ways to strengthen their muscles and build their coordination skills. However, staff do not pay the same attention to planning for the outdoors as they do indoors, and do not consistently consider what children need to learn when playing outdoors. ## Parent Reviews of Hillyfields Day Nursery 5.0 (11) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjW-loGkapyBQoEBRqhyPC5cSCIcVTdVwS1HCpYNZSkdWkj4FHOS7w=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba2) leila hasham a year ago A great small, local nursery.
