Ofsted Inspection Summary
Happy Feet Day Care Limited was inspected by Ofsted on 20 February 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children make rapid progress in the nursery from their original starting points on entry. Staff know the children well, and the experienced staff work well together under a strong leadership team. From a young age, children take part in a range of sensory experiences that help them to develop their hand-eye coordination and explore properties of materials."
Key strengths
- Staff take time to really get to know children when they first start and find out where they are in their learning journey.
- Children learn how to use a range of tools safely and develop their hand strength and control.
- Staff provide a rich-language environment and broaden children's vocabulary by introducing them to new words and their meaning.
- Mathematical language and counting are interwoven into children's play and daily routines.
- Staff sit with the children at lunchtime, and it is a very social occasion.
Areas for improvement
- support all staff to value children's time to talk, in particular building in time for children to process questions before intervening
- consider how to use all opportunities to consistently promote older children's growing physical independence.
