I'm currently looking into childcare options for my 12 month old as I go back to work in September. Does anyone have experience of My Favourite Nursery just off Barry Rd?

It's ofsted was only satisfactory but if the care and feedback from others is good them I think I'll check it out.

Keen to hear your thoughts.

Thanks.

My daughter went there from 1- 2.5yrs and I was very happy with it. It provided a lovely nurturing environment for her and the staff were all lovely. Personally I find ofsted reports for nursery level education a bit arbitrary and would recommend visiting and getting a gut feel for a place.
My daughter went there from 8 months to nearly 3 and I was happy with it. I think The ofsted was done not long after they opened and there were improvements to be made but I believe it's come a long way since then. Happy to pm you with further feedback if you like as I know childcare can be very emotive so don't want to start disagreements here! Ultimately it is a great nursery with lots of plus points and I know many many parents who have also been very happy with it.
My son goes to MFN and I rate it very highly. He is so happy there and the carers there really are great with him. My second son will be attending next year. I understand the waiting lost is long so I'd pop your name down, they are currently conducting an audit of their list.
A big thumbs up from us. My 3y old often says she wants to go back to nursery about 30 seconds into our walk home and a few weeks ago she woke at 2am crying that she wanted to go to nursery. That was fun. I hope her love of nursery is not a reflection on our parenting! They have also been wonderful settling in our 13 month old, really loving and thoughtful as to what he may need and very keen to hear our thoughts.
Our daughter has been going there for the last 8 months and we are really happy too - her key worker has been great and is really caring. Our daughter loves it so much that she sometimes doesn't want to come home! I agree - I think the satisfactory rating was more about it being new so I wouldn't take too much notice of it.
My son went to MFN for two years until we moved out of ED and it was a bit of a come down when we visited the nurseries in our new area. None of them had the friendly, community feel of MFN and they all felt a bit 'commercial'. I'd wholeheartedly recommend it. I only need to look at the scrapbook of photos and memories they gave him when he left to know it's a good place.

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
