Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) extremely well. Children with SEND have one-to-one and small-group sessions to help them build on their vocabulary and practise their speaking skills. Strong links with external agencies and close work with parents ensure consistent support.

Outdoor space

Staff plan the outdoor environment well to support older children in their physical development. Children are highly engaged as they practise climbing large equipment and balancing on different-sized stepping stones and beams. Children improve their hand strength and control, such as when filling up water from the water butt to water the tomato plants they are growing.

The best nursery in the area! It was my child’s first nursery and it was our best experience! Niko was always happy to go to nursery, especially when he saw Lewis and never cried (even though he was only 1yr old). Each teacher was great, and showed a great care for children. But I would like to highlight Lewis he was just the best, every child was obsessed with him! This nursery deserves the best rating. We miss you a lot and thank you for your hard work! Niko and mum xxx🤗💗

This is one of the best nurseries in the area. My son started going to nursery a few months back and I was so worried about settling him down. But to my surprise once he was settled he enjoys going to nursery now. He loves it. The staff is awesome and specially Claire is always helpful and supportive. I am so glad we decided on this nursery. We receive regular updates and observations via app and its lovely to see them. Thank you all to all the staff at this nursery. It should definitely classified as an outstanding nursery.

AVOID!!!!!! Worst nursery ever. Nothing is confidential. They talk bad about your parenting skills and how you treat your kids especially the manager.
