Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Nursery leaders demonstrate high levels of commitment to achieve the best possible outcomes for children.

They are rigorous in evaluating the quality of the nursery provision and value the views of parents and children in this process. • The induction arrangements for new starters are very effective. Staff ensure every child has sufficient time to settle by arranging visits prior to starting in the nursery.

Parents get to know their child's key person and other staff, which nurtures strong partnerships from the start. Children quickly develop strong emotional bonds with their key person. • Children make good progress from their starting points gen...erally.

They play and explore with confidence, and are well supported by the skilful and friendly staff team. • Children enjoy daily opportunities to play in the nursery garden. They develop their physical skills as they navigate the garden on bicycles and scooters.

Babies enjoy the fresh air and explore the garden with their key person. • Nursery leaders closely monitor children's progress over time. They work closely with other professionals if they have any concerns about a child's learning and development.

Parents are kept very well informed about their children's achievements. It is not yet outstanding because: • Occasionally, staff do not recognise opportunities that arise to provide the most able children with enough challenge to extend their learning further. • At times, staff do not present resources to nurture and develop children's early writing skills fully.
