The effectiveness of the leadership and management of the early years provision Requires improvement The setting meets legal requirements for early years settings

p.1

This provision requires improvement. It is not yet good because:

 Children's development is not tracked effectively enough to identify and plan for their next steps of learning.  The childminder does not always evaluate her practice effectively to continuously improve outcomes for children.

p.1

It has the following strengths

 The children are happy and secure as they have built good relationships with the childminder.  The childminder has good partnerships with parents and regularly shares information with them.  The childminder attends a range of training courses to develop her knowledge of child development.

who attend. This requires improvement

The childminder provides resources that generally cover the seven areas of learning. She adapts resources according to the age and interests of the children attending. Parents provide information regarding their child's likes, dislikes and interests, which helps the childminder establish their starting points in development. The children are mostly working within the expected development stage for their age; however, the childminder does not track their development effectively to assess how they are progressing. This means she is not identifying the next steps of learning for individual children or planning activities to include these. Children are acquiring good language skills as the childminder appropriately extends activities through related questions.

good

The children have formed secure attachments to the childminder. They are confident and happy in her care. The childminder limits hazards to the children through risk assessment. For example, she uses cushions to protect children from contact with furniture and a stairgate to restrict their access to the rest of the house. The childminder is sensitive to the individual needs of the children and works with their individual sleep and eating patterns. Parents provide meals for their child and the childminder gives them healthy snacks, such as fruit. This helps to promote good eating habits as part of developing a healthy lifestyle. Children play in the communal garden and the childminder takes them to local parks regularly. She also makes good use of a local toddler group, which allows children to socialise with others. The childminder has clear behaviour boundaries for children and works with parents to implement these.

p.3

provision requires improvement

The childminder has a suitable understanding of her role in safeguarding children and has attended relevant training. She also attends a range of training courses to improve her childcare knowledge. The childminder works well with parents and regularly shares information with them through a daily diary. Parents are encouraged to take this home and share their child's experiences from their weekend. This helps them to be more involved in their child's learning. The childminder completes progress reports on each child every year, as well as the progress check for two-year-olds when required. The childminder frequently seeks advice from professionals from the local authority to improve her practice. The childminder has started to reflect on her practice through self-evaluation, although she has not used this process effectively to identify all areas for future improvement.
