This provision is good
The childminder is a calm, gentle role model. Children behave well, have good manners, share and take turns. They learn to value their own and others' contributions and gain a positive awareness of people's differences. Children explore and investigate a wide range of good-quality resources indoors and outdoors. They lead their play and initiate their learning. For example, young children are eager to use markers on a whiteboard. They practise their early writing skills and, copying the childminder, they start to form letters, and draw shapes and numbers. The childminder recognises the importance of continuing to develop her knowledge and skills. Through training, she has extended her understanding of learning through play and helping children to make links in their learning. For example, after seeing ducks in a book and playing with toy ducks, children were very excited to see real ones at the

river. All children make good progress, including those learning to speak English as an additional language. The childminder makes good observations of children's development and uses them effectively to plan challenging activities to support their next stages of learning.
p.1
It is not yet outstanding because:
The childminder does not gain extensive information from parents on all areas of children's development before they start, to plan more accurately for their individual learning straight away. The childminder misses opportunities to extend the most able children's understanding of what happens to colours when they are mixed.

p.2
Inspection activities
The inspector observed activities and the quality of teaching indoors. The inspector spoke with the childminder at convenient times and carried out a joint observation. The inspector checked safeguarding information, the childminder's risk assessments and procedures for accidents, and the safety of the premises. The inspector took account of the childminder's self-evaluation and parent survey. The inspector sampled documentation, including policies and procedures, and children's development records.
p.2
Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a good understanding of all aspects of keeping children safe. She has emergency details on wristbands for children to wear on outings. She knows what to do if she is concerned about a child's welfare or they are at risk of harm. The childminder seeks parents' feedback to help her accurately evaluate her provision. She identifies actions that will help her to continue to meet children's changing needs. For instance, she is introducing resources to help younger children consider their emotions and supporting older children in understanding how they are role models for the younger ones. The childminder successfully monitors children's overall development and quickly identifies where she can provide additional support for children to catch up. She shares good information with parents to enable them to work together consistently to support children's learning at home.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
The childminder provides good support for children's language skills, especially those who speak English as an additional language. For example, she engages them in talking about their family and links words with their actions, such as 'you have the yellow ball, I have the green ball'. She joins in with children's games and helps them effectively to extend their ideas and imagination. The childminder supports children well to develop their mathematical skills. For instance, young children begin to understand about sizes as they select different-sized paintbrushes. They draw shapes and sort items by colour. The childminder demonstrates how to use equipment and gives children enough time to practise for themselves.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
The childminder seeks good information on children's interests to help her plan her environment, so that they settle quickly and are motivated to learn. The childminder meets children's needs well and works closely with parents to promote children's well- being. For example, she adapts young children's routines if they have not slept or eaten well at home, and helps young children to become confident during potty training. The childminder provides good support for children to develop a strong understanding of safe and healthy practices. For instance, older children learn to assess risks for themselves and know how to cross roads safely with the childminder. Children have plenty of water to drink and make healthy food choices.
p.3
Outcomes for children are good
Children develop good skills, a positive attitude to learning and are prepared well for their next stage of development and school. Children are inquisitive learners. They investigate to find out what they can do with resources and gain new skills. Older children consider solutions to problems and younger children use trial and error, for example, to work out how to get dough through a press. Older children have good self-care skills and young children are eager to take care of their personal needs.
