This provision is good

 Staff interact well with children. They actively get involved in children's play.

They provide a stimulating range of resources to help children explore, create and use their imaginations.  Children are happy at the nursery. They are warmly greeted by staff who respond well to their individual needs. This helps to promote children's emotional well-being.  Partnerships with parents are good.

They are pleased with the progress their children make.  The manager reflects well on the nursery provision. She gathers the views of parents, children and other professionals.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The manager follows robust recruitment procedures. She ensures that new staff are thoroughly inducted. All staff receive ongoing support, training and guidance. This helps them to fulfil their roles and to meet the needs of the children. Staff are confident with the procedure to follow should they have concerns about children's welfare. Children's safety is also promoted in other ways. Staff deploy themselves effectively so children are supervised well. The correct adult-to-child ratios are maintained and monitored throughout the day. Accidents are recorded and reported to parents. Partnership working with other professionals is highly effective. Children who have special educational needs or disabilities are provided with good support at the nursery. The nursery have established links with local schools children move on to. They gain information from schools about new teachers and the school environment. This

information is shared with children, which helps to prepare them for their move to school.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff gather important information from parents when children first start at the nursery. This includes information on children's current interest, likes, dislikes and capabilities. Staff build on this information with their own observations and assessments. They use these to plan individual next steps for children's learning. Children show great delight in opportunities to be creative and to use their imaginations. They use play dough to pretend they are making burgers. Staff engage children in conversations as they play and talk to the children about healthy food options and what they are making. This helps to promote children's understanding of a healthy diet. It also develops their speaking and listening skills. Children learn to focus their attention for longer periods during painting activities. They work well together to ensure that the joint project they are working on is covered in paint before they move on to decorating it with stickers and glitter.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children's behaviour is consistently good. Staff gently remind children of the rules of the nursery. Children are praised for sharing, turn taking and for their kind actions towards one another. Children learn to become independent. Older children manage their own care needs, such as using the toilet and washing their hands. Younger children are encouraged to learn to feed themselves. Children's physical skills are promoted well. They are able to make choices throughout the day about when they would like to play outdoors. Here they have opportunities to learn to climb, balance and negotiate space.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

All children, including those in receipt of funding, make good progress in relation to their starting points. Children who speak English as an additional language catch up quickly due to the good support they receive. Children are gaining new skills and are well prepared for their future learning, including moving on to school. Children accurately use numbers for counting during activities, and learn to recognise shapes and colours.
