Staff are calm, patient and reassuring, firmly establishing positive and secure key-person relationships with children. • All staff teach with careful consideration, being especially mindful of children's existing and developing skills and how they are playing in the moment. They join in sensitively with children's play ideas, using their excellent knowledge and skills to provide specific support and challenge children, continuously showing high expectations.
• Staff tackle various difficult issues affecting the children exceptionally well. For example, staff use books that explore these issues very sensitively, helping children to relate and gain a better understanding.
