My daughter started at this nursery aged eight months for one day per
week, building up to three days a week aged sixteen months. Next month,
aged three, she will attend five days a week. Like most parents, I did
a lot of searching and visiting nurseries and childminders in
preparation for going back to work and I was struggling to find
somewhere that felt right for our little one. (I mean no disrespect to
any other childcare services in the area. It is a very personal
decision and sometimes an emotional process). Fox House Day Nursery is
a small nursery, whose staff are dedicated, caring and who, in our
experience, listen to and support the parents of the children in their
care. Our daughter is excelling in her social and academic development,
and while my husband and I of course focus on this at home too, the
nursery nurtures this on a daily basis. I know the Ofsted rating was
reduced from good (which it was when our daughter started there) to
satisfactory; and I also know how upsetting that was for the staff and
how hard they have all worked to improve the standards. It is visible
for all to see. My personal opinion is that I would be very surprised
if anything less than a good rating were given at the next inspection
and I would not hesitate in sending another child of mine to this
lovely, little nursery.
