A NURSERY has been named outstanding in all areas in a new report.
Cheshire Day Nursery, based on Grammar School Road in Latchford, hit the perfect score following a visit by Ofsted inspectors.
The glowing report praised staff and the environment of the nursery which was described as 'meticulously planned'.
Staff morale is described as high which helps the quality of learning.
It added: "Children develop a love of learning as a direct result of the meticulously planned curriculum and learning environment.
"The focus on children's communication and language skills provides a central theme from which learning in all other areas is derived.
"Children express their opinions and ideas freely and with confidence, using new vocabulary fluently through speaking and using signs.

"Skilled staff use every interaction with children to support them to know and understand more, furthering exceptional progress in all areas of their learning.
"Activities are planned to ensure that children acquire and build on the key skills and knowledge that they need next. Expectations and aspirations for staff and children are high.
"Children proudly emulate the respectful manner of staff and demonstrate mature personal and social skills. For instance, very young children sit calmly together for snacks and meals, waiting their turn, helping each other and engaging in polite discussion. The superbly well-embedded routines of the day help children to feel safe and secure.
"Babies settle very quickly as their key staff work closely with parents to find out important details about their home life and routines. Children's learning is considered with sharp focus, and they are equipped with an abundance of skills and knowledge from their time at the setting.
"They are extremely well prepared for the transition to each new room within the setting and on to the next stage in their education."
There is praise for the 'love of learning' which is developed with a lending library to promote a love of books.
Children's communication and language skills are also promoted 'exceptionally well' which inspectors say leads to confidence in children meeting visitors.
The nursery was rated outstanding in all areas.
