p.1

This provision is good

 All children make good progress from their starting points. The childminder knows the learning needs of individual children. She provides them with interesting and challenging experiences which help them to become keen and motivated learners.  Children are given praise and encouragement to become independent in ways that are appropriate for their age and stage of development. This helps to develop their self- esteem and also supports them to be well prepared for their move on to nursery or school.  The childminder is warm and welcoming to both parents and children. She is very responsive to children's physical and emotional needs, recognising when they need rest, refreshment and comfort. This encourages them to build close relationships with her and gives them the confidence to try new activities and learning experiences.  Effective systems for working in partnership with parents and other professionals mean

The childminder also provides information to involve parents in extending their children's learning at home.  The childminder establishes effective partnerships and links with other settings children attend, in order to support continuity of care and learning.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 The childminder does not always provide children with clear guidance about what is expected of them. This means that, occasionally, children do not listen and cooperate with adults when needed.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The well-qualified childminder has a good understanding of the requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage. She is well organised and ensures all aspects of children's learning and care are reviewed regularly. The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The childminder has a clear understanding of her responsibilities to protect and safeguard children. She increases her knowledge effectively through training, in order to maintain and further raise the quality of her practice. The childminder also receives regular updates from local network meetings she attends. Risk assessments are carried out to thoroughly ensure all hazards are identified and removed. Children are further protected during outings and on the journey to and from school. The childminder shows a strong commitment to improving the service she provides, gathering the views of parents and children to help her target areas for further development.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder's teaching is good. Children make good progress in all areas of learning. They concentrate as they take part in a variety of fun and interesting activities. Children enjoy being creative in their messy play. They use their imaginations and create models as they mix together a range of materials of different textures. Children use construction toys and small vehicles imaginatively to create their own stories. They enjoy looking at books and anticipate the next part of the story. The childminder consistently promotes young children's communication and language skills as they play, talking to them throughout activities and introducing new words. Older children begin to make marks and form recognisable letters, helping to prepare them for their move on to school.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The childminder's home is welcoming and well equipped with a range of stimulating resources. This helps to encourage children to learn and explore. Children behave well. The childminder supports children to use good manners and be kind to each other. Children enjoy nutritious meals and snacks and have opportunities to be active in the outdoor play area. Good hygiene procedures are followed, which helps to promote their good health. Children are encouraged to develop their knowledge of other people's cultures, for example, through multicultural resources and the celebration of festivals and special events.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress in their learning and development from their starting points, including children who speak English as an additional language. Children are eager to join in with the well-planned activities and are motivated to learn. They are emotionally well prepared for the next stage in their learning.
