This provision is good

n The manager and staff are a strong team and work well together to provide good- quality learning experiences for children. This ensures children make good progress and gain the skills they need for their next steps in learning, including school. n Staff and children develop close bonds and secure attachments. Overall, children show they are emotionally secure and most settle quickly into the learning environment. n Staff develop strong relationships with parents and engage them fully in their child's learning. They keep parents well informed about their children's progress. Parents comment very positively about the caring staff and how much their children enjoy attending. n Staff are not aware of the high noise level in the nursery which does not always support children's concentration skills effectively. n Staff do not always make the best use of the outdoors to challenge those children who prefer to play outside. As a result, some children become boisterous when playing

indoors. Sometimes this has a negative impact on children's learning. n Very occasionally, staff do not respond quickly to ensure they meet all children's personal care needs as effectively as possible. For instance, they do not immediately see that children's noses need wiping.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff know what procedures to follow should they have concerns about children's welfare or if an allegation was made against a member of staff. Staff recruitment procedures are thorough to help ensure staff are suitable to work with children. The provider carries out regular staff supervision meetings. This enables her and staff to have discussions about their key children and identify training opportunities to enhance staff's teaching practices. For example, some staff are undertaking degree courses and this helps them reflect on their learning styles and develop new skills. Risk assessments are thorough. For example, staff follow strict procedures for monitoring visitors to the setting. The provider has also recently had a new security system installed on the front door to ensure children are kept safe within the nursery.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff have a good understanding of how children learn. They effectively observe and assess children's learning and development. Staff encourage children to use their mathematical skills. For example, children use different-sized cups in water play and compare the amount of water they use to fill these up. Staff use effective teaching methods to capture children's attention. For example, they use small story time groups and add props to enable children to be interested and listen well. Older children are challenged during story sessions to predict what may happen next and talk about the pictures in the book. Staff promote children's communication and literacy skills well.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Overall, children's behaviour is good. They show respect and help one another. Staff use positive and age-appropriate strategies to manage children's behaviour effectively. Staff teach children to consider risks for themselves when playing outside. For example, when children climb on the climbing frame or the low tree in the garden, staff remind and praise them for being careful. Staff help children learn about healthy lifestyles. For example, children enjoy healthy meals and learn to help themselves to their own water beakers throughout the day.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress and are motivated learners. They are confident and keen to learn. Children develop good communication skills and listen carefully to stories. They show an interest in words and learn to recognise their names, for instance, when they take part in self-registration in the morning. Children's experiences prepare them well for future learning and school.
