Good

27 January 2017

Children benefit from a calm and gentle approach in this 'Good'-rated childcare setting, where age-appropriate resources support their development. The caregiver creates a safe and welcoming environment, with effective safeguarding practices in place. Young children show contentment and bond well. While children make good progress overall, there is room for improvement in extending younger children's imagination and creative skills, as well as enhancing their knowledge of the local community through new experiences.
