who attend. This is good

The quality of teaching is good. The childminder uses her knowledge of the children to plan an exciting educational programme that is tailored to meet their individual learning needs. The childminder regularly assesses children's learning and shares this with parents. The childminder stores resources at low level, thus enabling children to make decisions about what toys and activities they wish to play with. The childminder effectively promote children's speech and language development. For example, she introduces new words to extend their vocabulary and teaches children basic mathematical concepts. She talks to children about she is doing and repeats words back, so children learn to hear words clearly. During the inspection, young children excitedly pressed buttons on toys and showed a keen interest in exploring early technology. The childminder's effective teaching skills support children to learn successfully. As a result, all children make good progress.

p.3

good

The childminder actively promotes children's health and well-being through a healthy diet, and provides regular access to fresh air and exercise. The childminder makes good use of toddler groups to develop children's social skills and to prepare them for the next stage of their learning. Overall, children have opportunities to learn about different cultures and festivals throughout the year. This generally supports children to develop positive attitudes towards diversity.

p.3
