p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder fails to meet a number of requirements of the Early Years Foundation Stage and Childcare Register.  The childminder has not notified Ofsted of changes to household members, as required.  The childminder compromises children's welfare. She does not understand her safeguarding responsibilities, including maintaining confidentiality. She does not recognise risks relating to the use of mobile phones and does not know how to report allegations or safeguarding concerns.  The childminder does not display her registration certificate or make Ofsted's address and contact details available to parents, should they wish to make a complaint.  The childminder does not know the requirement to seek parents' written permission to administer medication or inform them about medication administered promptly. She does not keep the first-aid box accessible and well equipped. This compromises children's well-being.

p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder does not understand her responsibility to provide children with healthy snacks, to promote their good health.  The childminder has not taken any action in response to recommendations made at the last inspection. This shows a poor commitment to ongoing improvement.

p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

There were no children present when this inspection took place. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with those who care for the children and an inspection of the premises, equipment and relevant documentation. Where there are no children present, no judgement is made on the quality of the early years provision as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess its impact on children. The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
