Hi


I'm interested in destiny kids nursery for my son under 1 years but cannot find an ofstead report later than 2011 for it.


When I phoned the nursery to request a copy they were a bit shady about the date of the last one or providing it online.I'm Not not impressed . They invited me to visit the nursery but I'm not interested in doing this unless I can first read the ofstead report .


Any views and Would anyone recommend this nursery for a 9/10 month baby ?



Thanks

Hi

The latest report online was published on 7th Feb 2014 from an inspection in late 2013. They receive a"good" rating. My son went there from age 10 months to almost 2.5 yrs. we only left as we moved house. It is a small nursery and has a very homely feel. The staff are lovely and my son was very happy there. In fact, I wasn't prepared for the withdrawal symptoms he would have when I took him out. He still talks about the staff 9 weeks on!! He learnt a lot too as there was a lot of individual attention. The outside space is a bit small and like many nurseries the admin needs improved which is why they may seem "shady".

The staff always had time to speak to me if I had concerns and I noticed that children were there for a long time so my son made some lovely friends who he really misses seeing now.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
