p.1

This provision is good

 Children are developing well in the care of the childminder and demonstrate that they are happy, feel safe and are confident in her care.  The childminder has a secure awareness of how children develop. She provides a good range of activities to promote children's learning and help them achieve their next steps in development.  Children play in a clean and well-maintained home and enjoy a variety of freshly prepared healthy meals, which helps to contribute to their good health and well-being.  The childminder maintains good verbal communication with parents. She understands the importance of working in harmony with other professionals involved with children to promote continuity of care.  The childminder has suitable methods in place to self-evaluate. She undertakes relevant training to improve her practice.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Parents sometimes receive information about how their children are developing that does not give them a clear picture of their abilities. For example, not all of the checks on young children accurately summarise where they are in their learning.  Children do not have enough opportunities to build upon their home language throughout the day.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The childminder has a suitable system in place to plan and assess children's learning. Overall, she has good systems to show how they are achieving and to set the next steps to help all children reach their full potential. Safeguarding is effective. The childminder is secure in knowing her role and responsibility to safeguard children. She is confident in the referral procedures for child protection. She works well with parents, for example, inviting them to contribute to their children's assessments. Parents clearly value the support that the childminder offers and comment highly on her ability to care for their children.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children are relaxed and confident in the childminder's home. They engage well in the variety of activities on offer and are consistently supported by the childminder. For example, as children explored with balls in guttering, the childminder talked to them about how many there were and the speed, which encouraged mathematical and thinking skills. The childminder promotes children's early communication skills successfully. For example, while playing with the children she skilfully asked and answered children's questions to build upon their speech, understanding and language skills.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children show that they feel safe in the care of the childminder. For example, they explore the environment with confidence and self-select toys and resources independently. Children behave well and are encouraged to be polite and helpful. For example, they use their own dustpans and brushes to help tidy away spilt rice from creative actives and are encouraged to say 'please' and 'thank you'. Children learn about a healthy lifestyle. For example, they are taught to 'catch' their coughs and wash their hands to prevent the spread of germs. They are given good opportunities to socialise and learn about their local community. For example, they go to toddler groups, the library and play at local parks.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are making secure progress in their learning. Children enjoy exploring and demonstrate good physical skills. For example, they climb confidently up the ladders of the large equipment, which promotes their coordination. They happily engage in activities, demonstrating a positive attitude to learning. Children are self-assured and are gaining the skills they need for moving on to pre-school or school.
