Summary of complaint
On the 3rd October 2016 we received information that raised concerns about the provider's ability to safeguard children. At the inspection we looked at the concern in particular the requirements relating to risk assessments, child supervision, staff deployment, safeguarding and ratios. We found that while the manager is ensuring that ratios are maintained, staff sickness and other staff absences means that the deployment of staff to meet the ratios is ineffective. This is currently impacting on the key-person system when meeting the children's individual care and learning needs. We found that the manager had fully investigated a recent incident regarding how children sleep in the baby room and she has started to take some steps to improve the procedures for sleeping children. However, there is not yet an effective system in place to frequently check the children who prefer to sleep in pushchairs and staff do not keep an accurate record of children's attendance

The provider remains registered with Ofsted.
