Cavendish House Private Nursery

Please can we remind all parents, when dropping off or picking up, to ring the bell and let staff know the name of your child. Please do not hold the door open for anyone else.

We still have some funded places available for 2 year olds. Please contact our fantastic nursery to arrange a visit!

We are open as usual on Monday 19th February!

Hello everyone. Ofsted were happy with everything so hopefully we'll be back to normal very soon x

Ofsted were in today so hopefully a decision will be made soon and I can bring you some good news. Thank you for your continued support.

Another frustrating day with no progress made or decision about opening. I don't understand why everything is taking so long and we are all feeling let down. Please keep the faith and give us your support, and keep reminding Ofsted that we need our nursery back up and running.

Just a message for all our actual parents. Thank you for being so supportive- your lovely messages and phone calls have kept us going at a really difficult time. We understand that some of you have had no choice but to go somewhere else for childcare and consider ourselves really lucky to have got to know your children.
Ofsted phoned at 3.30 pm today to say that investigations had to be complete before we could open, so we will still be closed on Monday 22nd January until this is done. They couldn't give a date but suggested it wouldn't be long.
I know this is very frustrating and upsetting. We miss the children and feel really sad about the whole situation but I don't know what else we can do.

I was told by Ofsted that we would get a decision by 3.00 pm today regarding opening on Monday but nobody phoned. I made at least ten calls to the local authority as well as Ofsted to try to talk to someone. I will do the same tomorrow.

Hello everyone. I found out today that my appeal has been unsuccessful. I was so hopeful that we would be able to open this week but apparently the investigations are not complete. So much nonsense has been said about me and my staff but we are so proud of our nursery and our wonderful children and parents. I will update you when I know more. Please keep us in your thoughts. Thank you for all your support.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support and patience. We share your frustration. We are still waiting to find out if we can open this week. We will let you know as soon as we know x

Happy New Year to all our parents and children. Despite our best efforts we remain closed but are hopeful that we can reopen on 8th January. We are sorry for the distress that this has caused which is entirely out of our control. Please contact the local authority and email Ofsted ([email protected]) if you have any questions or want to raise your concerns.
