p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder does not have a secure knowledge of safeguarding matters, such as the indicators that children are at risk of exposure to extreme ideas about right and wrong. This is also a breach of the childcare register requirements.  The childminder lacks knowledge and understanding of the learning and development requirements. She does not fully understand how to take account of children's interests and assess younger children's stages of development to plan activities to meet children's needs.  The childminder provides an appropriately resourced environment with a suitable range of toys and equipment.  The childminder knows the importance of building partnerships with parents, other providers and external agencies.  The childminder holds public liability insurance and a current paediatric first-aid certificate. She has completed risk assessments of her home, she knows how to provide a safe environment and measures are in place to minimise risks.

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.
