This provision is good

 The provider, managers and staff undertake robust assessments of risks in all areas of the nursery. This also includes outings off the premises. This helps to keep children safe.  Partnerships with parents, other providers and professionals are strong. There is a regular exchange of information between all parties to makes sure there is a shared approach to supporting all children's care and learning. Consequently, children's learning and developmental progression are good.  The provider makes sure that the self-evaluation procedures of the nursery include all staff, parents and their children. Consequently, strengths and any areas for further improvement are identified and acted upon.  Children develop effective emotional attachments with the staff, who are warm and caring towards them. This helps children to behave well and develop confidence so they can make strong friendships with other children around them.

This provision is good

 Children enjoy a range of outings to places of interest. This includes visits to the local school's forest area where they play in the mud, look at nature and wildlife and talk about their findings. The skills children learn here successfully foster their readiness for their move to school.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Staff do not always include children in the planning for their outdoor play so that they can make individual informed choices about what they want to play with and where they want to play.  The provider does not fully monitor all the different groups of children, to make sure all staff have the highest expectations for every child on roll.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The provider makes sure that all staff attend regular child protection training. This helps them to identify any possible signs of abuse or neglect. Staff are suitably qualified and attend a broad range of training sessions over time. Following training, staff meet together, reflect on their practice and make improvements that benefit all children on roll. All staff receive regular coaching from the manager and senior members of staff. This provides them with the time to talk about their key children and confidential issues. The provider works closely with senior members of staff to monitor the educational programmes. This has a positive impact on children's care, learning and development.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff identify clear starting points in children's learning through observations and discussions with parents from the start. This helps staff to make sure that planning is securely tailored to children's individual interests and that the next steps in their learning are clearly identified. Parents take home activity learning bags that provide further information about how play and interaction fosters their child's development. Staff provide a broad range of interesting and challenging experiences for children. Babies look on in awe as they investigate the sensory bottles full of glitter and beads. They are supported by staff to stand, move about, explore their environment and clamber over soft-play resources. Toddlers become excited and very engaged as they weigh out and mix ingredients to make their own cookies. Older children laugh and giggle with their peers as they fill and empty vessels and use straws to make bubbles at the water play. These

successful strategies help to promote all children's learning and development.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children learn to take manageable risks in their play as they use the climbing and balancing equipment in the outdoor play areas. They are provided with healthy, balanced meals and snacks that includes vegetables and fruit every day. Staff talk to them about how healthy eating helps them grow strong. Children plant, grow and harvest their own vegetables and herbs. This, and daily access to fresh air in the outdoors, helps children develop a good awareness about a healthy lifestyle. Children develop a good sense belonging to the nursery. Their artwork is displayed prominently for them on the walls alongside their own and their family's photographs.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

All children, including those in receipt of funding, make good progress in their learning and development. Consequently, children's readiness for school is very well supported.
