‘Welcoming and warm’ atmosphere praised at Aberdeen nursery

A children’s nursery in Aberdeen has been praised by inspectors and parents.

Children’s day care centre Angels and Co, based at St Clements Church on Mastrick Drive, can look after up to 31 children at any one time.

Monitors from the Care Inspectorate visited the nursery on July 12 and have now published their report.

They rated it “very good” for care, support, staffing, management and leadership – the second best of six possible ratings.

One parent told inspectors: “Our child’s confidence has grown immensely since attending Angels nursery.

“Since day one our child has grown very fond of all the staff.

“Our child has also developed so much at the setting, we have no doubt that our childcare and education needs are being met.

“The nursery’s interactive portal gives parents valuable insight into daily nursery activity.”

In the report, inspectors said: “There was a welcoming and warm atmosphere within the nursery.

“Staff were caring towards children and families and, as a result, they had built positive relationships.

“The well-being of children was at the heart of the service.”
