Areas to develop
Inclusion & environment
Staff identify gaps in children's learning and implement individualised interventions, such as small group work, to help them. Funding is used effectively to support children's needs, and managers consider where there may be gaps in children's experiences or development to provide exciting experiences and develop staff skills.
Babies enjoy exploring outdoors. They navigate slopes and climb in and out of structures. Staff provide more opportunities for children to develop their physical skills, as they climb steps and practise their balancing skills. Staff are close by to offer support and reassurance that gives children the confidence to have a go.
We recently moved to the area and had to search for a nursery for our 3-year-old son remotely. We asked a relative to visit the nursery on our behalf, and from the very beginning, the staff impressed us with their kindness, attention to detail, and excellent communication—especially as our move-in date was delayed. Our son settled in happily from his very first day, which speaks volumes about the welcoming environment. The nursery offers a wide range of activities and has a fantastic, spacious outdoor play area. We’re very happy with our choice and have no regrets. Highly recommended!
