This provision is good

 Partnerships with parents are strong. Staff keep parents well informed of children's progress and encourage communication about the well-being and development of children at home.  The management team helps staff reflect on their professional skills and improve practice further. Staff receive regular, constructive feedback about their practice and they reflect on their own skills and how they may improve outcomes for children. For example, recent training helped staff identify new strategies to support children's good behaviour.  Staff are skilled in responding to children's interests and ideas as they play, and encourage them to think creatively. Children decide which tools to use to make pictures and use everyday objects imaginatively in their role play.  Children arrive happily at the nursery. They are greeted warmly and enthusiastically by the friendly staff with whom they develop strong attachments.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Staff have effective partnerships with other professionals and providers, particularly to support children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities. This ensures children's care and educational needs are supported well. Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a good understanding of how to protect children and understand the procedures to follow if they have concerns about any child's welfare. Children are always supervised and staff are vigilant about their safety. They carry out regular risk assessments to identify and reduce potential hazards. The management team reviews the provision effectively to identify areas for improvement. They value the contributions from staff, parents and other professionals. For example, staff have enhanced opportunities for children to learn about the natural world. The management team keeps a record of the outcomes of any complaints received and take appropriate action. They ensure that staff with paediatric

first-aid certificates are deployed effectively to respond to medical emergencies quickly, log all accidents and inform parents.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide a welcoming learning environment which reflects the diverse range of children's backgrounds. They support children to gain a sense of belonging. For example, they use words in children's home languages and help to further build on their communication and language skills. Children enjoy sharing their experiences from home and talk about their families. Staff provide many opportunities for children to practise their early literacy skills. Children are keen to make marks and explain about their drawings and writing. They benefit from a wide range of activities that help them develop their physical skills. For example, staff encourage babies to stand to strengthen their leg muscles and older children enjoy climbing, balancing and swinging on large equipment.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff support children's emotional development successfully and help them to develop their self-esteem and confidence. Children respond well to the praise they receive for their achievements and talk about their feelings. They behave well and are polite and kind to each other. Children learn to be independent and develop good self-care skills. They assist staff with daily routines, such as giving out plates, cutlery and serving food. Staff support children's good health effectively. Children learn about good hygiene routines and enjoy healthy meals, snacks and drinks.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children develop good social skills and play together happily. Babies explore confidently and make new discoveries. For example, they investigate their reflections in mirrors and play games, such as peekaboo. Older children persevere and enjoy practising their physical skills. For example, they cut carrots with knives and concentrate well. Children develop their understanding of the world. They show interest in plant growth and decay and experience how materials change as they mix ingredients to make dough.
