It said that, "Children are confident, and they know the nursery routines really well. Staff enable  children to 'have a voice' within the nursery. For example, children use the book of  equipment that staff have devised, to help choose which resources they want out  the following week. This helps them to guide their own play and learning and to  develop a strong sense of belonging. Children are polite towards each other. They  share resources well and are supported by staff to understand how to resolve  minor conflicts or problems. Staff have high expectations of the children's  behaviour and remind them of the importance of being kind and caring. They plan  an interesting curriculum that is based on children's individual learning and  interests. As a result, children are engaged and busy throughout their nursery day ."

 "There have been changes and improvements to the management structure  within the nursery since the last inspection. The new manager is now supported  by a deputy manager and two room leaders, who meet regularly to review all  aspects of the provision. They consider improved ways of organising the nursery to ensure that children receive good-quality teaching and learning. All staff  understand their roles and responsibilities and work well within their specific  team. The high adult-to-child ratio ensures that all children, including those who  require additional help, are well supported to enjoy their nursery experiences.  Staff deployment is effective and, as a result, all children receive good-quality  support and interactions. Many staff have worked at the nursery for a number of years, creating a strong and stable staff team.  Parents speak very highly of the staff and the managers. They comment that  their children love attending the nursery and cannot wait to get there. Parents of children who require additional support state that staff are very knowledgeable  about their children and assist them with seeking appropriate professional  support, to help close gaps in their children's development."

" Children are provided with good opportunities to experience learning outside of  the nursery environment. They go for walks in the local area, visit shops, travel  on a train to the next town and go to the post office to post letters. Visitors to  the nursery, such as a dentist and a dental nurse, enable children to understand  about people who help us. "

We were thrilled to achieve GOOD.
