p.1

This provision is good

 The childminder takes into account the views of parents when reflecting on her provision. She seeks additional advice from her childminding coordinator to help improve her practice further.  The childminder introduces numbers and counting well. For example, she counts beads with children as they work together to thread necklaces. Children are keen to join in, learning to order and reciting numbers.  Babies and children develop a good range of skills to support their ongoing progress and eventual move on to school. They enjoy looking at books with the childminder and practise making marks using chalks and pens, supporting their early literacy skills well.  The childminder promotes children's understanding of different people and communities well. For example, the resources to support pretend play reflect children's own family backgrounds as well as cultures from around the world. These include wooden utensils

from Africa and Bangladeshi cooking pots.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

 The childminder does not consistently provide a wide range of materials and textures for children to investigate, to enhance their creative and sensory play.  The childminder does not always recognise when children would benefit from more support and encouragement to try things out for themselves and persist at tasks.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a good understanding of safeguarding and wider child protection issues. She knows how to take appropriate action should she have any concerns about the welfare of a child. The childminder attends a range of early years training and uses new knowledge effectively to enhance children's learning. For example, she has learned a range of teaching strategies to support children's communication and language development. This has helped her to strengthen her provision for children who speak English as an additional language. The childminder develops effective partnerships with parents to support children's learning and welfare needs. Parents appreciate the childminder's guidance on issues, such as toilet training and children's eating habits.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder uses her regular observations and assessments effectively. She identifies what children need to learn next and uses their interests to plan for their ongoing development. Children make good progress from their starting points. The childminder provides babies with space to play, where they can move freely and develop their large- and small-muscle movements. For instance, she places interesting toys on a low table, encouraging babies to pull themselves up to standing and begin to take their first steps. The childminder supports children to learn about the world and feel part of their local community. For example, she regularly takes them on outings to local shops and parks, and to visit a nearby museum.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The childminder is kind and caring in her approach and forms close attachments to the children. She is aware of their individual care needs and supports them well. For example, she is sensitive where children need encouragement with eating. Children feel safe and secure in their environment. They enjoy playing with the childminder and come to her regularly for cuddles and reassurance. Children enjoy a range of healthy snacks and have frequent opportunities to explore the outdoors, helping them to develop a good understanding of healthy lifestyles. The childminder regularly attends sessions at local playgroups and libraries with the children, as a way of developing their social skills. Children learn to share, take turns and play cooperatively with others.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children confidently play and learn in the childminder's company. Babies and toddlers are inquisitive and explore their environment with excitement. For example, they demonstrate their curiosity as they play with technological toys, developing an understanding of the connections between pushing buttons and making sounds or lights. Children enjoy social interactions with others and are increasingly confident to communicate with other children and adults. Children who speak English as an additional language learn new words rapidly alongside their peers.
