My Ofsted Inspections

Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
17 September 2024
A recent inspection has rated this childcare provision as 'Good' across all areas. Children benefit from a well-balanced curriculum built on their interests, with strong behavior expectations resulting in well-mannered and respectful children. Partnerships with parents are highlighted as strong, with information gathered about children's interests and needs. While communication skills are generally well-supported, consistently modeling correct word pronunciation has been identified as an area for improvement.

Highly Recommend

5 stars

My child currently attends Nic Nics daycare and absolutely loves their time within the setting. Both Nicola and Rehanna are very welcoming, enthusiastic and easy to approach. Since attending the setting my child has excelled within their development and looks forward to each day they attend. Both practirioners are highly qualified and help me in any way possible in regards to my child and their behaviour. The resources available are fantastic both inside and out and i would highly recommend this setting for children of all ages. When i arrive to collect my child all children attending look happy and content and i like how the older children get involved with the younger children. Absolutely love it x

I wish to thank Nicola and Danielle for outstanding approach and for fantastic atmosphere in her Child care. My baby loves them and we could not imagine any better childminder. I know that my baby is in good hands while I'm at work.

Thank you
