Every space has been designed with little learners in mind. From calm corners for stories to areas that encourage creativity, exploration and discovery, our nurseries have been carefully created to help children feel confident, curious and ready to learn.

We are absolutely delighted and incredibly proud to share the results of our recent Ofsted inspection at Cub Headingley! We achieved a ‘Strong Standard’ rating across all areas under Ofsted’s new inspection framework.

With the previous single-word judgements such as ‘Outstanding’ and ‘Good’ no longer in use, settings are now assessed against a broader and more detailed range of standards. Inspectors provide a report card that reflects performance across key areas, giving a more comprehensive picture of the quality of care and education being delivered. Ours is now available to read online.

Although the inspection came much earlier than anticipated, our dedicated team, supportive managers and wonderful children rose to the occasion and represented the nursery exceptionally well! To receive such positive recognition in every area after being open for just 11 months is a remarkable achievement. It reflects the hard work, commitment and passion of our entire team, who have worked tirelessly to create a nurturing, inspiring and inclusive environment where children feel safe, valued and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Thank you to everyone in the Cub Headingley family for their support.

Over the last three and a half years, we have loved sharing images of the nursery children's play and development. Our social media has been a beautiful record of their learning, friendships, achievements, and the many special moments that have taken place within our nursery community. However, in the interests of safeguarding children in an ever-evolving AI landscape, we have made the decision to stop sharing photographs of children on our social media platforms. This has been a difficult decision to make, but the safety of our children, their identity and their welfare is our first priority.

It’s the last Last Day…

Over the last few weeks, our pre school has got smaller as our oldest children have each had their last day and headed off to start reception. And today out last ones leave.

It is so bitter sweet… we know that it’s time for them to go and be the curious, confident, happy learners they are at their new schools, but our hearts are slightly broken at having to say good bye!

We have had such a lovely time together and made such happy memories. We’ve loved getting to know their whole families - thank you for all the lovely cards, messages and gifts, your words have meant so much to us.

These beautiful words from one parent particularly touched us:

“Three years ago, a very depleted mummy with severe separation anxiety dropped her bub off at nursery for the very first time. I was terrified.

The transition was slow, gentle and completely led by what R needed. The level of compassion, understanding and support we were offered was immeasurable.

Slowly, Cub, The Modern Nursery became my village — and, in so many ways, part of our family too. 🤍

I later learnt the term alloparent, and it’s exactly how I would describe this incredible team. The people who care for, nurture, guide and love our children alongside us.

Tomorrow is R’s last day in his journey at Cub, and I honestly don’t think I’ll ever be able to put into words just how grateful I am to you all.

Thank you for loving our boy, for holding him (and me!) through those early days, and for being such a huge part of his little life.

We will be eternally grateful. 🤍”

GOOD LUCK ROOM 5, YOU’RE ALL GOING TO BE AMAZING!!!
