p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder has not kept up to date with her first-aid training. She does not have a current first-aid certificate, as required. This is also a breach of the associated requirements of the Childcare Register.  The childminder understands how to promote individual children's progress using her knowledge of the areas of learning, assessment and planning of activities.  The childminder is clear about safeguarding procedures to follow should she be concerned about a child in her care.  The childminder understands the value of working in partnership with others to support children's care and learning. She knows how to manage children's behaviour and the importance of teaching them to respect others.  The childminder knows the importance of evaluating her provision to improve it.  The childminder understands the importance of teaching children healthy habits, such as eating nutritious meals and taking daily outdoor physical exercise.

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.
