The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder fails to ensure her setting is safe and clean. She does not use risk assessment effectively and has overlooked hazards that have the potential to compromise children's well-being. For example, the premises are damp, dirty and need significant repairs to walls and internal fixtures. The childminder fails to meet associated requirements of the Childcare Register.  The childminder shows an insufficient understanding of suitable behaviour management strategies to use with children, and how to encourage positive behaviour.  The childminder does not have suitable resources to support the learning of children of different ages and abilities.  The childminder's knowledge and understanding of the learning and development requirements is weak. She does not know the requirement to complete progress checks for two-year-olds, or how to plan suitably challenging activities to help children to

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.
