Inspection Report

Extract from Inspection Report:-

"Children enjoy their time at this welcoming and homely nursery. Staff greet children and their families with a friendly smile and support their transitions into the building. They strive to ensure every child feels safe and secure within their care.

Staff implement individualised settling-in sessions and gather a wealth of information from parents about their child. These are highly effective in helping staff to get to know the children well from the start. As a result, children quickly develop strong bonds with staff, including those children who have only been at the setting for a very short amount of time.

Staff plan a wide range of experiences that children are keen to take part in. Babies happily explore musical toys and dance excitedly as staff sing songs to them. Toddlers build on their understanding of vocabulary as staff introduce new words during role-play activities. Older children fully immerse themselves in storytelling sessions where they develop an understanding of early reading skills. They turn the pages of their own book and excitedly join in with the actions to match what is happening in the text. Children make good progress in their learning and development.

Staff have high expectations of children. Well-implemented rules and routines help them to understand what is happening now and next. Staff are positive role models and are consistent with expected behaviours. They offer children lots of praise to boost their self-esteem. This has a positive impact on children's confidence, behaviour, and attitudes towards learning. Subsequently, children behave well."
