“Children arrive happy and keen to attend. They form warm and trusting relationships with staff. Babies benefit from a nurturing environment in which staff meet their care routines consistently, and provide close reassurance to help them feel secure. Children develop positive attitudes and social skills. They benefit from good role models who have high expectations of their behaviour. Children make friends, play and cooperate well with others and help when asked".

​​

"Children explore the good range of activities and lead their own play confidently as they move around the playrooms".​

​

"Staff respect and encourage children's ideas, and help them to fulfil these in their play. They provide activities to enrich children's experiences. For example, they take children on outings in the local community, and children learn about one another's home languages and beliefs. Children enjoy regular physical and outdoor play throughout the day. Babies practice standing and walking in safe spaces, and older children enjoy physical challenges, such as learning to balance on beams and kick ball".​

​

"Staff know the children well. They regularly assess children's learning, and quickly identify any gaps in their development to provide additional support. This helps children to make good progress".

​

"Staff work successfully with parents and other professionals involved in children's care and learning to ensure they meet their needs consistently".

​​

"Parents share very positive views of the setting. They state, for example, that staff communicate well, nurture children's development, and reflect children's individuality within the setting".

​

"Staff attend training regularly to help them keep up to date. Staff maintain safe and secure environments. They help children to learn about risk and how to keep themselves safe, such as managing steps safely. The management team follows robust recruitment procedures to ensure staff are, and remain, suitable to care for children".
