The setting meets legal requirements for early years settings

p.1

This provision is good

 The childminder is enthusiastic in her interactions with the children. This motivates children in their learning and they enjoy their time in her care.  The childminder completes the required progress checks for children aged between two and three and shares these with parents to identify gaps in children's learning. She plans interesting activities and experiences for children based on precise assessments of what they know and can do. As a result, all children make good progress from their starting points.  The childminder consistently encourages children to use polite words such as please and thank you in their interactions with others. This promotes children's social skills.  The childminder has a secure knowledge of the learning and development requirements and how to safeguard children's well-being. She completes thorough risk assessments of the premises and understands the procedures to follow to protect children. This

helps to keep children safe.  The childminder shares information effectively with school staff to ensure a smooth transfer for children who move to school.

who attend. This is good

Children develop confidence because the childminder creates opportunities for them to interact with other children during play. For example, children settled down well on arrival as they played alongside other children, transferring coloured rice between containers. The childminder introduced mathematical language such as full and empty to further extend their learning. Young children enjoyed painting and the childminder described what they did as they made strokes on paper with a brush. This supports children to learn new words and promotes their communication and language development. The childminder read a familiar story to older children and used the pictures to stimulate discussion. Furthermore, she challenged their thinking by asking questions about what happens next. Children recount the story with little prompts from the childminder. This promotes their early reading skills and helps to prepare them for their move to school.

p.3

good

The childminder has precise knowledge of individual children's emotional needs and works closely with parents to promote their well-being. Therefore, children flourish in a nurturing atmosphere. She offers a healthy choice of snacks for the children. They develop independence in caring for their personal needs as they express their preferences and choose what they would like to have. Children behave well because the childminder helps them to think about the needs and feelings of others and to share fairly during play.

p.3

provision is good

The childminder provides a good, caring learning environment for children. She effectively takes into account the views of parents and children in planning for improvements. As a result, self-evaluation procedures are robust and are focussed well on improving outcomes for children. This means the childminder identifies additional training needs as required to improve her practice and raise outcomes for children. The childminder routinely monitors children's progress and evaluates the effectiveness of the activities she plans and provides for them. She knows the procedures to follow to seek advice from external agencies to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. The childminder also works in another setting that children attend. Consequently, she effectively continues to support children's education as they move between settings.
