Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good The management team continually reflects on the service they provide.

This includes gathering the views of parents and staff. This helps to identify areas to improve, to benefit all children. The newly appointed manager has a good overview of the nursery.

She has set challenging but achievable plans for continual improvement. Staff complete risk assessments and daily checks of the premises to help to ensure a safe and secure environment for children. They are well deployed and supervise children at all times.

Children access the areas and resources safely. Children have daily opportunities for fresh air and exercise. This helps to promote ...their physical well-being.

Staff ensure that children are suitably protected from the sun. Staff form successful partnerships with parents. They encourage parents to share information about their children and inform them about their children's progress.

Parents speak highly of the nursery and comment that they recommend it to others. Staff get to know the children well. They regularly assess children's level of development and plan activities to support children's ongoing learning.

At times, staff in the pre-school room miss opportunities to enhance children's learning.
