This commendable result is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire staff team at Dicky Birds Day Nursery & Preschool on Pelham Road in Wimbledon, who strive to provide the highest quality care and education service for the children at their nursey.

They inspect and observe services providing education and skills for learners of all ages, including the childcare providers on the early years register.

All school, day nursery and other childcare services Ofsted latest report can be found on the Ofsted website, and provides insight of what you can expect from a day nursery, school or other childcare providers.

What Ofsted had to say about our Wimbledon day nursery

From the Dicky Birds Day Nursery & Preschool on Pelham Road’s most recent Ofsted report, the nursery and staff team scored ‘Good’ across all areas of the inspection criteria and shown to continue making good progress since their last inspection.

Here are some of our favourite highlights from the last Ofsted report:

Fuelling understanding and imaginations

One of the key highlights from the Dicky Birds on Pelham Road, Wimbledon day nursery Ofsted report was the way the staff team make meaningful links between activities to help children deepen their understanding and ignite their imaginations.

A shining example of this was observed in the preschool room, where staff guided children through the exciting process of building a fire engine.

The children had the best time taking part in this activity, deciding how best to construct a ladder for the firemen to climb. This hands-on project encouraged the children to carefully solve problems and use mathematical language as they designed and assembled their ladder.

Children play with items and activities such as these everyday at nursery, which also plays a crucial role in developing their problem-solving skills and their understanding of mathematical concepts.

Developing vocabulary and conservations

Another key highlight from the Wimbledon day nursery Ofsted report is their dedication to children’s learning. The staff team help children lean new vocabulary and get them to engage in back-and-forth conversations.

Across all age groups, from babies to pre-schoolers, children make good progress and are exposed to new language everyday! This is incorporated into and enriches their play at nursery and this approach helps children learn to express themselves more clearly and confidently.

The inspector noted how heart warming it was to see the excitement on the children’s faces as they share what they know and have learned at nursery, a testament to the nurturing environment fostered and effective methods used by the Dicky Birds staff team.

Children play to develop independence

According to the Ofsted report, independence is another core value at the Dicky Birds Wimbledon day nursery.

The staff team encourage children to do things for themselves. Simple tasks like washing hands and refilling tissues are taught from an early age to help facilitate children’s learning.

The inspector commented that it was delightful to observe some babies pouring their own drinks and feeding themselves, showcasing their growing independence at an early age.

In the toddler room, children take pride in making their own play dough, where they scoop, knead, and measure the ingredients. These activities not only develop practical life skills for school but also instil a sense of competence and confidence in the children, which is vital for their overall development.
