Moira Willgrass, the owner of Happy Days Nursery said: “Following our recent Ofsted report we were clearly very disappoint­ed.

“We have been in a period of transition, this has flagged up some shortcomin­gs within the setting.

“We have recently recruited a new manager and under the new management structure all actions were met and implemente­d within 10 days. “The recent visit from The Early Years Improvemen­t Advisor has only served to confirmed this.

“We are ready for the re-inspection.” Children have been taken into playrooms that have chairs storage boxes and toys stacked on top of tables.

Staffdohow­everknowab­out children’s individual needs and respect parents wishes with regard to food preference­s.

They teach children about person hygiene and they have opportunit­ies for daily outdoor play.

But following the inspection staff have made changes and the nursery says it has now completed the five areas that Ofsted said they need to improve on.

The early years improvemen­t advisor for North Yorkshire County Council has visited the nursery after changes were implemente­d.

In a feedback report, the advisor said: “The nursery now has a new leadership team, with committed, proactive and experience­d practition­ers in the key roles of manager, deputy and SENCO.”

She also said “good progress has already been made with Ofsted actions.

“As a result, there is a positive impact for the children. It was therefore agreed the setting has no need for additional support for now.”
