Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good The management and staff work closely as a team and share the same passion and vision for the nursery. They regularly review their practice to ensure they provide high levels of care. They have identified areas they would like to develop in the future.

The quality of teaching is good. Staff plan imaginative learning experiences based on children's natural interests while supporting them to acquire new skills. Children make good progress in their learning and development.

Knowledgeable staff support children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities very well. They liaise regularly with a wide range of other health and education profess...ionals to support children's individual needs. The key-person system is extremely good.

Staff develop their knowledge about children's care needs through close partnership working with parents. They work together to provide a consistency of care between nursery and home for children. Parents are very complimentary about the care their children receive.

They are particularly happy with how children's emotional development is supported. It is not yet outstanding because: Detailed information about what children already know and can do at home is not obtained from parents on entry. Staff do not provide children with enough language opportunities to consider questions and think things through independently.
