Outstanding Ofsted Report received March 2015
Children make exceptional developmental progress because staff know them very well and are highly skilled at promoting their learning and development.
Children's individual needs are extremely well met because staff work effectively with parents to involve them in children's learning and development.
The manager uses her extensive qualifications and experience to skilfully evaluate the quality of the nursery and guide and support staff so that outcomes for children
continually improve.
Children are provided with an exciting and stimulating range of activities and resources that successfully motivate them during their play, although opportunities to learn about the local community and wider world are slightly better for older children than they are for the younger children.
The nursery has made significant improvements to the
outdoor play area, which has successfully promoted children's learning outdoors.
Children are extremely happy and settled due to the caring and attentive approach
from staff.
