Diverse Books and Toys: Children show they are interested in the available activities and are keen to join in, such as with finger painting and printing and exploring pinecones in the sand.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children have plenty of opportunities to play outside in the fresh air. They negotiate space well as they push wheelbarrows and trolleys around their friends and develop their balancing skills as they walk across wooden planks. Children enthusiastically engage in physical activity indoors. They jump, hop and move their bodies energetically to the music.
Philosophy: The manager has a clear curriculum intent and knows what skills and knowledge she wants young children to learn as they become ready to move to pre-school.
Activities: Children show they are interested in the available activities and are keen to join in, such as with finger painting and printing and exploring pinecones in the sand.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Staff know the children well, including their interests and abilities and what they need to learn next. Children make good progress across the areas of learning.
Communication: Partnerships with parents are positive. They report that their children enjoy coming to nursery and have settled well. Parents say that they are pleased with the progress their children are making.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Children have formed positive relationships with staff and other children. They show that they feel secure as they sit with staff to read a story or have a cuddle when upset and in need of comfort.
Safeguarding Training: Effective recruitment procedures have not been followed, placing children at risk. The provider has not ensured that the manager keeps robust safeguarding records when concerns about staff's conduct are raised.
Play and Learning Integration: Staff have high expectations of young children and help them develop their self-care skills at a young age. Children are encouraged to peel their banana and pour their own water. Children use cutlery to feed themselves at lunchtime, and staff offer support to help them learn these skills when needed.
Children's Safety and Security: Children settle quickly and show they are confident and happy in the nursery.
Child Safety Management: Safeguarding procedures are not robust enough to keep children safe from harm. Gaps in recruitment procedures mean that the provider does not do enough to ensure that new staff are suitable to care for children.
