To pull DS from new nursery

His last nursery was amazing, unfortunately just got too expensive and now he’s older I thought a community nursery attached to a pre school would be better and help him become independent. he’s 3.5. They were OFSTED rated good 5 years ago. 25 kids in one room, so much like reception. He goes 3 hours a morning
he’s been there over a week now, was wearing pants last week but had an accident (weed himself) every day which is odd for him as he never has accidents anymore. On tapestry there’s an image of him playing with the other kids and his clothes are soaked.
ive put him in nappy pants this week and told them because I was worried about him sitting there soaked, I’ve picked him up and his nappy is full of poo.
0 communication from the nursery, they point to the parents at pick up time. Kids have to walk in themselves.
His water bottle has remained untouched everyday and left or put in his bag. As soon as I pick him up he asks for a drink so I get it out his bag.
Picked him up today and It’s pissing it down and his coat was left in his bag.
The main thing is communication though, he’s just had his first week and they can’t even come out and talk to me and let me know how he got on

@Needmorelego just looked on their website, it says it’s a EYFS nursery, not sure what that means

@Whisperedew EYFS is Early Years Foundation Stage. It covers 2 years.
Foundation Stage 1 is for 3 - 4 year olds and within a primary/infant school will usually be called the Nursery Class.
Foundation Stage 2 is 4 - 5 year olds and is the Reception Class.
There shouldn't be 2 year olds in a EYFS class.

they also have a parents rota for parents to come in and help with a session, as it’s community run, I know I’m reaching here but the parents aren’t DBS checked

If they are volunteers and are supervised by the regular teachers i.e. not left alone with the kids then they don’t need to be DBS checked. I wouldn’t be mad on it as I think mine settled better with a proper delineation between school and nursery, but it’s not a safety concern if that’s what you’re getting at.
