This provision is good

 The childminder organises a range of activities that motivates and interests the children to enjoy learning as they play. All children develop good skills for their future learning.  The childminder provides useful opportunities to encourage children to be confident and independent. She helps them to be polite and learn to share resources, to support their social skills well.  The childminder provides many opportunities that contribute to children's good health. For example, children have daily trips to local play amenities and are very active. She ensures children develop good hygiene practices and benefit from very healthy diets.  Partnerships with parents and other professionals are good. For example, the childminder shares information with other early years settings children attend, to help support continuity in their care and learning.

It is not yet outstanding because:

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has updated her safeguarding training and kept up to date with current guidance. Her thorough safeguarding policies and procedures clearly underpin her knowledge of the procedures to follow if she has any concerns for children, to help protect their welfare. The childminder has met the recommendations made at her last inspection and has a very positive attitude to improving. For example, she has improved the way she supports children to learn about themselves and others in their community. The childminder monitors children's progress and the quality of her teaching well overall. She carries out her own research to develop her knowledge, enhance her practice and provide children with good learning experiences. The childminder regularly evaluates her provision.

The childminder knows the children well. She provides opportunities to support children's imaginations effectively, for example, as children pretend to take their dolls for walks. She helps all children develop their physical, personal, social and emotional skills effectively. The childminder supports children's knowledge of the natural world. For instance, she provides opportunities for them to investigate the local community. The childminder promotes children's speaking skills effectively. She gives meaning to younger children's actions and gestures to extend their learning.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The childminder's settling-in procedures are effective. She tailors routines for each child's needs, to help them settle easily and quickly. The childminder forms strong relationships with the children. She provides many cuddles and reassurance to help them feel comfortable and confident. The childminder provides a good selection of resources, from which children choose, to encourage their independence well. She provides a good range of multicultural resources, which children enjoy exploring as they learn about the diverse world in which they live. The childminder is a positive role model for children's behaviour. She helps children to share, take turns and use polite manners.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are settled. They show they feel safe, secure and are willing to learn. Children have good coordination as they move around the environment. They learn to count and eagerly take part in stories. Older children develop their early reading and writing skills well. They develop their ability to be respectful and they learn to care for their environment. Children make good progress in their learning. They are prepared well for the future and school.
