Ofsted Inspection Summary

Charlie Bears Childcare Limited was inspected by Ofsted on 20 August 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children arrive at this welcoming nursery happy and ready to learn. They separate from their parents and carers with ease. Staff seek a range of information from parents about children's care and learning needs at the start of the day."

Key strengths

  • Staff build strong partnerships with parents and carers.
  • Staff recognise and value children's individuality.
  • Staff respond to children's care needs gently and sensitively.
  • Children learn to manage their behaviour effectively because staff provide consistent routines, praise their efforts and achievements and set clear…
  • Staff place a strong focus on developing children's early literacy and language skills through engaging story and song times.

Areas for improvement

  • support staff to minimise interruptions during group activities so that children sustain focus and remain fully engaged in their learning
  • increase opportunities for children to complete tasks independently, so they develop self-care skills, confidence and independence in everyday routines.
