Verwood Day Nursery Ltd | Ofsted Reports, Reviews (2025)

This calming environment is full of resources which support our babies and toddlers growing curiosity and independence from birth to two years old.
Numerous chances for observation and dialogue as vehicles, people, horses, and dogs pass by the nursery are provided by the wide low-level windows.
To introduce the babies to sensory and tactile based activities, we have a wide variety of resources available, including open-ended and wooden resources. We also employ Treasure baskets and Heuristic play.
They have access to our one acre garden area as well as having their own dedicated play space outside, providing lots of opportunities to explore the world, enhance their physical skills and use their developing senses.
The experienced, qualified and long serving staff team are passionate about the care and development of our youngest children and have been chosen to work with this age group because of their knowledge, experience and expertise.
In their role as key person, the staff ensure that routines such as nappy changing, feeding and settling to sleep are opportunities for one to one time, and are consistent with your routines at home.
This information is shared with parents together with details of all the wonderful activities and experiences that your child has enjoyed during their day with us.
We believe it is vital that we base your childs day around their individual needs and routines and therefore our room routines are not rigid, but instead flexible and reactive, ensuring each child receives the same opportunities for play and exploration but at a time that responds to their needs.
We will ensure your child settles well into nursery life from the beginning, within a comfortable, safe yet stimulating environment.
Our settling in sessions and optional home visit, are a time to ensure each child becomes familiar with the environment and the staff, in particular their key person.
