The Red Brick Day Nursery

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Following the last inspection, the provider has continued to make significant and effective changes to the nursery.

The staff team works well to meet children's needs and provide them with a good range of fun activities that are planned around their interests. • The vast majority of parents speak highly about their and their child's experience at the nursery. They acknowledge the positive changes that have been made to the organisation of sessions that are beneficial to their children's feelings of well-being when they arrive.

They comment on the progress their children are making, particularly in their confidence and independence. • Teaching is g...ood. Children enjoy the involvement of staff in their play.

Staff talk to them about what they are doing and encourage children to explore and be curious. • Children are safe in the nursery. Staff follow effective risk assessments.

They provide close supervision when children play and when they are asleep. It is not yet outstanding because: • The provider has effective procedures for the recruitment of staff, however, she has not yet fully developed highly rigorous performance management to promote their individual, ongoing professional development. • Occasionally during activities, children do not have time to think about what they want to say in response to questions before staff move on with the conversation.
