This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder has allowed her paediatric first-aid certificate to lapse. She has not had up-to-date training of how to respond to any accidents or injuries sustained by children who may be in her care. This breach also relates to the requirements of the Childcare Register. n The childminder does not have a suitable understanding of her role and responsibilities to safeguard children. She does not update her safeguarding knowledge to include changes to legislation, for example, the 'Prevent' duty. n The childminder is aware of the need to reflect on her practices and knowledge of the statutory framework for the early years foundation stage, to ensure she understands her responsibilities fully. n The childminder offers a home-from-home environment which is safe and secure for the children in her care. n The childminder works hard to establish strong bonds and relationships with the families with which she works.

This provision does not meet requirements

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.
