A nursery in Harrogate has been praised for its "warm, nurturing environment" during a glowing Ofsted report.
Partou Safehands Day Nursery and Pre-School, located in Kent Road, was commended by the inspector for creating a supportive setting where children feel safe, confident and cared for.
The nursery was rated as achieving a strong standard in three areas under Ofsted’s updated early years evaluation framework.
Vicky Gildea, nursery manager, said: "It is a really positive report card which reflects the dedication and professionalism of my fantastic team.
"We leave no stone unturned in our efforts to provide the best possible learning environment for children."
The Ofsted report highlighted the nursery’s inclusive culture, praising clear expectations for behaviour, positive role modelling, and a focus on supporting children’s confidence and independence.
The inspector noted that children quickly form secure attachments with staff and learn to carry out tasks such as serving meals and brushing their teeth.
Partnerships with families were described as "highly successful" as well, with parents speaking positively about staff communication and the care provided.
The nursery is housed in an Edwardian building and offers spacious, well-equipped rooms and outdoor play areas designed to encourage exploration and learning in all weather conditions.
