p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 There are limitations in the resources and experiences to provide children with opportunities to explore their home language and culture.  The childminder has not fully instigated systems that invite parents to express and share their ideas and views about the service she provides. This means their ideas are not always represented fully.

who attend. This is good

The childminder understands how children learn. She teaches children to recognise shapes, colours and numbers through everyday activities and routines. For example, children develop their counting skills while walking up and down steps in the garden. They count how many balls they have as they enthusiastically transport them into the water. The childminder talks to the children at all times, extending their communication. She encourages young children to repeat words back to her and gives plenty of praise and encouragement. She supports children's interest in books by reading together so that children extend their language and listening skills well. The childminder regularly shares children's progress with parents, providing ideas to support their next steps. Consequently, this supports them with children's learning at home.

p.3

good

The childminder builds strong bonds and attachments with children. This builds their self- esteem. As a result, children learn to share and take turns, and behave well. Children are confident and move around the play areas at ease. This means they develop good levels of independence and enjoy selecting activities of interest. Children develop their physical skills very well. They use a wide range of resources in the childminder's garden, such as the slide and ride-on toys. The childminder ensures potential risks are minimised and closely supervises children as they play. Regular visits to toddler groups and outings in the local community mean children's understanding of the world is well promoted. Children also enjoy local trips to parks and play areas. This effectively supports their overall well- being. Children's good health is promoted well as they develop their understanding of good hygiene and learn about healthy eating.

p.3

provision is good

The childminder has a good knowledge of the safeguarding and welfare requirements. She has completed safeguarding and first-aid training. As a result, she is able to address competently any accidents or issues that may cause her concern. Recommendations from the last inspection have been addressed. The childminder has attended a range of training courses to shape her professional development. This has improved outcomes for children. For example, she has very effectively put her skills and knowledge into practice, and completes observations and accurate assessments of children's development. This means she knows children well and skilfully prioritises children's learning and plans accordingly to meet their individual learning needs. The childminder monitors the educational programmes to ensure that children continue to make good progress. Consequently, children are supported for the next stage in their learning.
