Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

The manager is committed to providing a supportive and inclusive environment. Staff and managers monitor children's development and progress carefully. Any signs of delays are shared promptly with parents, and the manager understands the procedures to follow to obtain support from other professionals where children may need it. This means that all children are supported to reach their potential.

Outdoor space

Children have ample opportunities to develop their physical skills. Outdoors, they practise throwing, catching and kicking balls to each other, and demonstrate their control and coordination as they use climbing equipment. Children delight in playing outdoors and explore mixing different coloured water and spreading mud in planting beds.

Look no further, you’ve found the best nursery in Worcester. Cannot tell you how happy we are as parents and most importantly how happy our little girl is with this nursery. Our felicity is always so excited to go and has made so many friends including the owners. She has come along so well with Gillian and Charlotte’s help and is learning so much. Cannot recommend enough. Thankyou both for everything you do x

We are really happy with this nursery. From the moment our daughter transferred from another one, the manager and staff have been really professional and caring. She's having lots of fun and learning a lot there. Everything feels safe and secure. They have even helped us out by covering exactly the hours that we needed. Highly recommend!
