It had been classed as \u2018outstanding\u2019 at its last inspection in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Inspectors noted that leaders and staff were dedicated to ensuring children\u2019s safety and well-being. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor example, staff use a mascot to help children to learn about how to keep themselves safe,\u201d the report noted. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey share information with parents and carers about online safety. This supports children to learn how to be safe both in and out of the nursery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The report adds staff build positive relationships with the children that they care for. \u201cThey spend time getting to know children\u2019s likes, dislikes and interests.
