About this day nursery

ZoZo's Day Nursery, located at 283 Hollyhedge Road in Manchester (M22 4QR), has been operating since 2023 and is registered to care for children aged 0-10 years. The nursery provides a warm and welcoming environment where children quickly form secure relationships with staff, feeling safe, valued, and cared for.

Leaders at ZoZo's Day Nursery prioritise children's welfare and wellbeing, actively working to ensure that vulnerable children feel included. Children enjoy attending the setting, demonstrating curiosity and engagement in their play, and develop independence through daily routines like handwashing and self-serving at mealtimes.

While the nursery has robust safeguarding practices in place, the latest inspection on February 6, 2026, highlighted areas for improvement in consistently building children's learning over time and tailoring activities to maximise engagement, particularly for older children and those with additional needs. Despite these areas, the setting prides itself on a calm, nurturing, and well-organised environment, ensuring children feel secure and supported throughout their day.

The nursery is open Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and operates all year round.

What it's like

While children enjoy their experiences and feel that they belong in the setting, their learning does not consistently build as well as it should over time. Staff do not always organise teaching and activities to maximise children's learning and engagement, particularly for older children and those who are vulnerable and children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. As a result, children's achievements and preparation for their next stage of learning are variable.

Ofsted report for ZoZo's Day Nursery

Last inspected 6 February 2026 · Vicki Brown

Actions the provider must take

  • ensure the curriculum is clearly sequenced and consistently implemented so staff plan with clear learning intentions and next steps, particularly for older and vulnerable children
  • strengthen the use of assessment so staff consistently identify gaps in learning and adapt teaching to support all children to make secure progress from their starting points
  • embed systems to assess, plan, review and evaluate support for vulnerable children, including clear oversight of additional funding and its impact on children's learning and progress
  • improve the consistency and organisation of group times so expectations are clear, waiting time is reduced and children remain engaged
  • sharpen supervision sessions, coaching and professional development so they are directly linked to improving teaching practice and are monitored for impact

What it's like to attend

While children enjoy their experiences and feel that they belong in the setting, their learning does not consistently build as well as it should over time. Staff do not always organise teaching and activities to maximise children's learning and engagement, particularly for older children and those who are vulnerable and children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. As a result, children's achievements and preparation for their next stage of learning are variable.

  • Children feel safe, valued and cared for and confidently seek comfort and reassurance when needed.

  • 3Adaptations for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and other vulnerabilities are not consistently evident in daily practice.
  • 4Leaders have not yet embedded systems to assess, plan, implement and review support for individual children.
  • 5Routines are not consistently organised or predictable, particularly during group times, transitions and mealtimes.
  • 6Systems for leadership oversight are not yet sufficiently effective to secure consistent improvement in practice.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders know which children require additional support and have initiated referrals and multi-agency discussions where appropriate. However, adaptations for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and other vulnerabilities are not consistently evident in daily practice, and systems to assess, plan, implement, and review support for individual children are not yet embedded. Consequently, inclusion currently supports children's wellbeing more effectively than their learning and progress.
