In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are warmly welcomed by a friendly and nurturing staff team. They come happily into a well-organised, safe and homely environment. Staff provide reassurance and comfort to children when they become upset, encouraging them to explore their emotions by talking to them about their feelings."
Key strengths

- When children first start the nursery, staff gather detailed information from parents on children's care routines and developmental progress to date.
- Staff complete detailed observations and assessments of children's progress.
- Partnership with parents is a strength of the nursery.
Areas for improvement
