Age range

Hunderton Neighbourhood Nursery and Kids Club Ltd, located in Hereford, provides comprehensive childcare services for various age groups, from infants as young as 4 months up to children aged 5 years. The day nursery is committed to creating a welcoming and engaging environment, evident through their dedicated spaces like the sensory room and well-maintained outdoor play areas.
They offer different programmes tailored to specific age ranges: "Teddies" for 4 months to 2-year-olds, "Ducklings" for 2-3 year-olds, and both "Leapfrogs" (all year) and "Ladybirds" (term time only) for 3-5 year-olds. Additionally, the Kids Club provides after-school and holiday care, catering to older children.
The day nursery actively supports government funding initiatives, helping eligible families access free childcare hours for 9-month-olds, 2-year-olds, and 3-4-year-olds, including the extended 30-hour entitlement. While offering a hot lunch option, parents also have the flexibility to provide packed lunches.
The nursery prides itself on not charging for consumables or extra activities, ensuring transparent pricing. They encourage prospective families to explore their website, view the gallery to get a better sense of the facilities, and review their OFSTED reports for quality assurance.
What it's like
Children who attend this setting make good progress in their learning from their individual starting points. They settle quickly and form close relationships with staff and their friends. They quickly engage in activities and are motivated and curious learners. Children's behaviour is good; older children learn to negotiate with each other, take turns, and share with friends.

Areas to develop
Verbatim quotes recorded in the Ofsted inspection
parents say that the manager and staff go above and beyond to ensure that children and their families are valued and respected as individuals.
Inclusion & environment
The support for children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is exceptional, and this is a real strength of the setting. Staff work closely with outside agencies and professionals and act on their advice to ensure children make the best possible progress they are capable of. Funding is spent appropriately to provide additional resources and equipment to benefit children with SEND. The special educational needs coordinator has attended training and introduces a range of activities to support children to develop their language skills.
Children's health is promoted well. They enjoy healthy meals and snacks and access outdoors every day.
