The day nursery operates Monday to Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, providing care throughout the year. While children happily settle and build positive relationships with staff, the Ofsted report from January 2026 highlighted areas for improvement. The curriculum, though aiming to be broad, lacks depth and consistency in its delivery, impacting how children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and those who face barriers to learning, progress. Although the setting welcomes all children, and some speech and language activities have been introduced, leaders and staff need to enhance their understanding of individual needs and how to support them effectively. Improvements are also needed in staff training and ensuring a clear understanding of the curriculum across the team to better tailor learning experiences for every child. Despite these areas, the day nursery has met safeguarding standards, and leaders have made improvements in safeguarding policies and procedures, staff supervision, and nappy changing routines, ensuring a secure environment for children. What it's like Children enter the nursery happily, settle quickly, and enjoy playing with their friends. They have positive relationships with staff and approach them when they need reassurance, comfort and cuddles, which are regularly offered. Leaders broadly outline what they want children to learn, plan enjoyable activities, but struggle to articulate a clear and coherent curriculum that ensures progression for all children.

However, leaders have not ensured that staff have a clear understanding of the curriculum for these children, and staff have not accessed training to help them effectively support children in this area. Leaders have introduced some speech and language activities to support children's speech development, but this does not go far enough to meet individual needs. EAL / language support The setting welcomes all children into an inclusive environment. Leaders and staff gather information from parents during induction, though this information is not always effectively used to plan and implement support. Some speech and language activities have been introduced to support children's speech development, but these efforts need to be expanded to meet individual needs more comprehensively. ## Google Reviews of Sticky Fingers Worthing 4.0 (4 Google reviews) ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjUBW98GUml1SC4CyL_Tji60vxwjO8pWJ-0ExQlTXS9-62ak2JY5=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Paul B 5 years ago My little boy absolutely loves it here.
