Ofsted Inspection Summary

Banana Moon Day Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 26 August 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are happy to attend and clearly have positive relationships with staff and their peers. Babies show confidence as they explore their surroundings, knowing familiar adults are close by. Children who are less confident are given reassurance from the kind and caring staff, which helps them to feel safe and secure."

Key strengths

  • Children are offered a healthy and balanced diet in accordance with their dietary needs.
  • The routines across the nursery generally offer children good levels of structure and an awareness of what to expect during the day.
  • Staff ensure all children have daily access to the outdoors and encourage them to develop their social skills.
  • Overall, staff support children to develop their communication as they play.
  • Strong partnerships with parents are nurtured by management and the staff team.

Areas for improvement

  • enhance the use of assessment information so that all staff consistently identify and support children's next steps to precisely reflect their learning needs
  • identify more effective ways to manage transitions during the day so that staff give children more time to focus and engage on their learning
  • enhance staff's awareness of how to promote and extend all children's vocabulary.
