## About this day nursery

Primrose Hill Nursery, situated in Lydney, GL15 5TA, is dedicated to providing a safe, joyful, nurturing, and stimulating environment for young children. Emphasising learning through meticulously planned play activities, the nursery strives to create a positive atmosphere where children can thrive, whether attending a few times a week or every day.

The nursery prides itself on its experienced and highly qualified staff, many of whom have been with the nursery for many years and are also mothers, offering a deep understanding of the challenges parents and children might face during separation. The establishment maintains a child-to-carer ratio that surpasses government guidelines, ensuring each child receives ample attention.

This framework, combined with a Key Person system, fosters trusting relationships between staff and children, providing parents with peace of mind. The nursery's commitment to quality is reflected in its 'Good' Ofsted rating, with inspectors highlighting the staff's profound knowledge of individual children, their ability to create engaging learning experiences, the warm and supportive relationships, and the excellent opportunities for developing social and physical skills in outdoor areas.

The nursery also effectively supports children with additional needs or those learning English as an additional language, fostering self-regulation through responsive care. Prospective families are encouraged to visit the setting to see the facilities and meet the team firsthand.
