This provision is good

 The childminder understands the importance of developing her skills and knowledge. She actively seeks opportunities to improve her practice and children's outcomes. For example, she finds out about any changes to legislation in childcare to help her implement them and ensure her setting is up to date.  Children are happy, secure and confident. The childminder forms positive bonds with them and supports their emotional well-being effectively.  The childminder provides good opportunities for children to develop their language skills, such as by naming objects as children play and skilfully questioning them to encourage the sharing of ideas. Children develop their speech well and make good progress from their starting points.  Children explore a wide range of resources that reflect the diverse community that they live in. They learn to respect and value other people's backgrounds and develop their

It is not yet outstanding because:

 On occasions, the childminder does not offer enough opportunities for younger children to develop their sensory play ideas and explore different objects.  At times, the childminder does not make use of writing materials, particularly so children can access them at ease to develop their mark-making skills.

Inspection activities

 The inspector observed the interactions between the childminder and the children.  The inspector looked at a range of documentation, including risk assessments, children's records and the childminder's policies and procedures.  The inspector viewed the parts of the premises used for childminding and observed what children are able to do.  The inspector held discussions with the childminder about children's learning and how she reflects on the quality of her service.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder implements effective policies and procedures to keep children safe. She understands her responsibilities in ensuring children's well-being and knows how to report her concerns if she suspects a child is at risk of harm. The childminder's self-evaluation processes are effective. She seeks the views of others, such as parents and children, to help her recognise her strengths and areas she wants to improve upon. She acts on the advice of other professionals to improve her teaching expertise and the outcomes for children. For example, she has remedied all weaknesses raised at the last inspection and meets all requirements.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder teaches children well. She supports them effectively, such as by talking to them and encouraging them to be involved in activities. She has improved on her assessment procedures since the last inspection and uses her observations well, such as to plan interesting, age-appropriate activities and to monitor children's learning. The childminder forms good partnerships with parents to ensure a continuous approach to meeting children's individual needs. For instance, she gathers information from parents about children's routines and abilities when they first start at the setting. She uses this to plan effectively for their individual needs from the outset. Children have opportunities to develop their confidence and social skills with others, such as when attending the local children's centre. The childminder provides good opportunities to develop children's creative thinking. For example, she encourages children to play imaginatively and think of

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The childminder supports children well to develop an understanding of following good hygiene practices. For example, she teaches them to wash their hands. Children eat nutritious foods and learn about healthy lifestyles. They are active to develop their physical skills and well-being. Children behave well. The childminder acts as a good role model to help children understand how to behave politely towards others. She supports children's health and safety well. For instance, she carries out daily checks of the premises to remove or minimise any hazards.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress and learn a range of skills that prepare them well for their future learning. For example, toddlers learn to use equipment correctly, such as musical instruments to make sounds. Babies enjoy crawling and move around freely, while older children learn to communicate, listen to others and use words in context.
