What is it like to attend this early years setting?
Children enjoy their time in this nurturing setting that provides a home-from-home environment. They have close and trusting relationships with staff and feel safe and secure in their care. Staff are sensitive to what children pay attention to and thoughtfully add resources to the environment to support this. A balance of adult-led and child-led activities means that children have freedom to make choices about their play while also benefiting from gentle guidance that extends their learning.
Leaders prioritise fostering children's curiosity. They plan engaging activities based on children's interests to help children develop their concentration and focus. Sensory activities are available in each room. Children immediately engage with what is on offer and excitedly explore independently. Babies are fascinated by the cinnamon-scented cornflour and investigate the textures with their hands. Older children mix herbs in their play dough and enjoy discovering the different scents. These hands-on experiences nurture a love of enquiry, encouraging children to become enthusiastic and engaged learners.
Staff are ambitious for all children and promote positive behaviour through gentle guidance and praise. Children learn to wait their turn and play cooperatively. They show kindness and respect towards each other, creating a calm and harmonious atmosphere within the setting.
What the setting must and should do next
The provider should:
- enhance staff knowledge of how to support children's emotional development and respond in ways that validate their feelings
- evaluate and strengthen the strategies staff use to support children's language skills.

Ofsted grades before November 2025 (England)
Inspections before November 2025 gave one overall grade on a four-point scale: Outstanding, Good, Requires improvement, Inadequate. Ofsted also graded the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management, and said whether safeguarding was effective.
Settings keep their last grade until Ofsted visits again, so many nurseries still show a grade from this older scale.
