The setting meets legal requirements for early years settings

p.1

This provision is good

 The childminder has established effective processes for assessing, tracking and planning for children's progress. She identifies and targets gaps in achievements through good levels of support and strong partnership with parents.  The childminder is highly responsive to children's interests and wishes. For example, she purchased resources they suggested and organised a sports day for them.  Children have a very strong bond with the childminder who they clearly trust immensely. She provides children with high levels of emotional support. For example, she helps them prepare for change and overcome anxieties about going to the dentist. Parents are extremely impressed with the childminder's commitment to children's well- being.  The childminder keeps parents significantly well informed about how well their children are developing and fully involves them in planning for their progress. As a result, children receive consistent support between their home and the childminder's.

who attend. This is good

Children make good progress in their learning and the childminder prepares them well for school. Every child has a clear development plan, which parents fully agree with, that the childminder regularly reviews and updates. The plans target children's specific needs, such as to improve their speech, increase knowledge of shapes or develop coordination. The childminder models the correct letter sounds of words by confirming and repeating what children say. After listening to a story about a robot, children made one out of empty food packaging. The childminder used this activity to introduce the more able children to three- dimensional shapes. Children were challenged by the childminder to roll a dice. This determined the colour and/or number of beads they needed to pick up to thread onto a lace. She broadens children's understanding of the world by engaging them in interesting conversations and activities. For instance, children compared living in a house to an igloo.

p.3

outstanding

Children are happy and confident with an exceptionally strong sense of belonging and security in the childminder's care. They demonstrate an impressive 'have-a-go' attitude as they persist with challenges, such as threading. Children adore helping to care for the childminder's pets. They took an active role in helping the childminder move home by packing and unpacking the toys and deciding how to organise the new playroom. The childminder shows children the ivy and brambles in the garden. She explains the hazards so that they understand how to keep themselves safe. Children engage in an excellent range of physical activity, such as sports day races, using the trampoline and scooters, and exploring the woods. Children enjoy the nutritious snacks and meals the childminder provides. The childminder supports children exceptionally well as they learn to manage their own personal care, such as toileting, putting on coats and shoes, and using a knife

p.3

provision is good

The childminder has met the actions raised at the last inspection and is meeting the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage well. She has updated her safeguarding training and attended additional training to help improve her practice. For example, she has strengthened her processes for completing assessments on children. The childminder has good links with children's other early years settings and has established exceptional levels of communication with parents to support children's individual needs. The childminder uses self-evaluation effectively. For example, she identifies resource needs, such as a trolley for dressing up clothes, activity ideas and some training needs.
