Ofsted Inspection Summary

Rainbows Day Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 4 December 2023 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children happily arrive at the setting and are excited to start their day. Staff welcome children into the setting and give them time to settle at the activities they have organised. Babies explore play food items, and staff introduce new words to them, such as 'broccoli'."

Key strengths

  • Staff report that they feel very supported in their roles.
  • The manager is clear about what children need to learn and how staff should be teaching children.
  • Staff follow children's interests when planning activities.
  • Older children practise using tongs to pick up small craft items such as pom- poms.
  • Staff provide a variety of opportunities for children to be independent.

Areas for improvement

  • strengthen staff knowledge of how children learn to help them recognise children's emerging interests in order to build on what they already know
  • improve the organisation of transition times, including lunchtime, to minimise interruptions to children's learning.
