 The manager demonstrates a secure understanding of the safeguarding and welfare requirements. Consequently, procedures to record and report concerns about children's welfare are robust. This helps to protect children from harm.  Effective partnership working takes place with local schools, and children are confident and prepared for their move on to school.  Staff have created an interesting, well-resourced environment inside and outside, which promotes learning in all areas as well as helping children feel safe and secure.  Staff share all aspects of children's learning and work closely with parents.

who attend. This is good

The quality of teaching throughout the nursery is good. Staff carry out regular observations of the children during play to assess their skills and to identify their current interests and how they like to learn. Staff ensure this information is shared with parents, along with how children can be best supported through their learning at home. All children access a very good range of resources. Staff play alongside the children and take opportunities to ask relevant questions. However, occasionally children are not given enough time to respond and answer the questions. Children are very confident with their physical abilities. They have a wide range of activities that provide challenges for them in the extremely well-resourced outdoor area. This helps to promote children's physical well- being.

good

Staff organise the nursery well to provide an exciting and safe environment for children to play and explore. Children form secure emotional bonds with their key person. Staff promote children's personal, social and emotional development well. Children learn to interact with others and gain an awareness of the community around them. Staff are good role models to children. However, some children do not fully understand the feelings and emotions of others, for example, when sharing and taking turns at free-play times. Staff encourage children to take risks while keeping themselves and others safe. For example, children learn how to hold on to the rails as they walk down the stairs.

provision is good

The qualified staff team members are dedicated to their roles. Their evaluations of activities, peer observations and supervision meetings clearly identify what works well and what needs to be improved. The staff use this information to make effective enhancements in order to improve practice. Therefore, the quality of teaching is good. Staff observe children's activities and use this information to plan for their next steps in learning. This ensures children are continually challenged and they make good progress. Recruitment procedures are robust and staff are knowledgeable in protecting children from harm. There is a good level of qualified staff and they extend their professional skills through attending additional training, which enables them to promote children's learning further.
