Partou Tippy Toes Day Nursery and Pre-School in Bristol has been awarded a ‘Good’ rating in areas by the regulator.
In her report, the Ofsted inspector describes team members as “kind and nurturing” with “high expectations for all children.”
She adds: “Children are happy and enjoy their time at nursery.”
Partou Tippy Toes provides high-quality childcare and early years education to families in Yate, Chipping Sodbury and surrounding areas.
The 76-place nursery offers spacious playrooms with an abundance of educational resources and free flow access to outdoor spaces.
The inspector praises team members for developing a curriculum “which focuses on providing children with a wide range of opportunities and experiences within their local community.”
She continues: “Staff know the children well. They assess children's progress to enable them to identify gaps in children's learning and to target their support. Staff use their knowledge of children's interests to provide activities and support children's engagement in learning.”
The report notes that the nursery’s leaders have collaborated with the special educational needs coordinator (SENCo) “to ensure that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) have targeted support.” The inspector writes: “The SENCo works with parents and staff to put plans in place to meet children's individual needs. Staff have created a calming environment to use with children with SEND when they are feeling overwhelmed.”
And she highlights the efforts made by the team to “celebrate the diversity within their setting.” She adds: “They work with parents to learn about their families' cultures and to celebrate their individuality.”

These strong relationships with families coupled with our child-led approach to care and development, makes the nursery a safe and inspiring place for young children which is what Partou is all about.”
