p.1

This provision is good

 The childminder has a secure understanding of how children learn and develop. She responds well to their individual needs. Children are happy and settled. They clearly enjoy spending time with the childminder.  The childminder provides a welcoming and homely environment where children can safely explore and become independent in their play.  The childminder regularly reviews children's development to check that they are making good progress and plans effectively for their next steps in learning.  The childminder uses effective strategies to promote positive behaviour and raise children's self-esteem. She gives children clear, consistent guidance and gentle reminders about her expectations for their behaviour.  The childminder establishes good relationships with parents from the start. She keeps them well informed about their child's day, including their progress and achievements.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 The childminder's professional development is not yet specifically focused on raising the quality of her teaching to an outstanding level.  The childminder does not consistently offer a broad enough range of activities to inspire children's creativity and sensory exploration and support their learning even further.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder is clear about her role and responsibilities to keep children safe. She knows what to do should she have any concerns for a child's welfare. The childminder assesses her home to identify any potential hazards and takes steps to reduce the level of risk. For example, the childminder does not allow young children to use the garden because it is sloped and they are currently not confident in using the steps. The childminder reflects on her practice and attends mandatory training. She is aware of what she does well and areas she would like to develop, such as providing even more collaborative learning experiences for children. Parents written comments are positive and they value the childminder's help and support.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder knows the children well. Young children are confident and eager to join in. The childminder provides a good range of activities that builds on their interests and skills. Young children are focused and show high levels of concentration as they play a sorting and matching game. They extend their own learning by adding a large spoon to their play to move the objects instead of using the tweezers the childminder has provided. Young children explore and develop their own ideas as they build big towers with blocks and giggle when they fall down. The childminder sits alongside, offering lots of praise and encouragement. She effectively promotes young children's speaking skills, adapting her language and repeating and correcting words they say. Young children persevere and problem solve as they complete small puzzles.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The childminder supports children's personal, social and emotional development well and children demonstrate that they feel safe and secure. Children sleep undisturbed in a quiet area and the childminder makes sure the privacy of all children during times, such as nappy changing is assured. The childminder provides children with nutritious and well- balanced snacks and meals, and children follow good hygiene routines throughout the day. The childminder plans daily opportunities for children to be active. They visit playgroups and enjoy regular trips to the local park and shop. This provides them with occasions to play and socialise with other children and learn about their local community. Good settling-in procedures are successfully matched to each child's individual needs. This ensures that children are ready for the move from home to the childminder.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

All children make good progress and are well prepared for the next stage of their learning and their eventual move on to school. They are confident and capable learners. Young children listen attentively to stories and follow simple instructions well. They are beginning to share and learn routines and boundaries. Young children are developing their independence. They make choices about what they want to eat for snack and help to find their belongings at nappy changing time.
