Nursery owner Kate Jones said :"The whole team at Yellow Wellies Day Nurseries are delighted to receive our second outstanding grading from Ofsted.

“We are a small chain of nurseries, owned by my husband Neil and I.

“We all work very hard in making each nursery a home from home for a wide range of children and their families.

“I have always striven for the nurseries to be fun, happy and relaxed for the children, yet professional.

“The very dedicated and highly qualified team have worked their socks off in recent years to really deliver childcare that is at the forefront of the industry.

She added: “We have also been delighted at the lovely comments from our parents,

on hearing about our outstanding rating.”

The nursery has 20 members of staff and 70 children on its register. There are a few spaces available for September.
