About this day nursery
Sami Care, a childcare facility located at 88 Wright Street, BIRMINGHAM B10 9SP, was registered in 2012. The nursery operates term-time only, Monday to Friday, from 8am until 4pm, offering full day care for children aged from nine months to four years.
With a capacity of 40 children and 44 currently on roll, the nursery provides funded early education for eligible children. The setting employs eight childcare staff members, five of whom hold Level 3 qualifications and three at Level 2.
Sami Care focuses on fostering a welcoming and engaging environment where children are happy and settled. The staff are dedicated to promoting children's well-being, providing balanced meals, and ensuring daily fresh air and physical play.
Children benefit from a range of activities designed around their interests, encouraging exploration and perseverance, such as building towers and engaging in imaginative play. The setting places a strong emphasis on developing children's communication and language skills through expressive storytelling and discussions about themes like friendship and feelings.
Strong relationships with parents are cultivated, ensuring children feel secure and confident. The nursery also provides robust support for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), including the effective use of a sensory room and additional funding to meet individual needs, allowing children with SEND to make good progress.
While the nursery provides a good quality of education and strong behaviour and attitudes, areas for improvement include leadership and management and personal development.

Staff are friendly and caring. The nursery is clean and looked after. The children enjoy themselves and there are protocols in place which keep staff and children safe and well. I have sent all my children to this nursery since it opened and don't have one complaint. Management is superb!
