She supports children's emotional well-being effectively. n The childminder supports children to gain confidence in their self-care and growing independence.

p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. The childminder regularly completes a range of training to update her safeguarding knowledge and is alert to the potential risks posed to children. She knows how to respond if she has concerns about a child's welfare, understands the roles and responsibilities of relevant agencies and knows when to involve them. The childminder works well with others who may be involved in children's care and learning. For example, she shares information with school staff to support a consistent approach to children's learning needs. The childminder makes good use of resources within her local community to extend children's learning experiences. For example, children take part in a range of learning opportunities away from her setting, such as visits to the park. The childminder demonstrates a commitment to her professional development. This contributes well to the good progress children make.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
The childminder uses her accurate assessments of children's learning to plan activities that address potential gaps in their development. For example, she provides additional support for children's communication and language development through frequent opportunities to use the languages they speak at home and interactions with other children away from her setting. The childminder supports their early literacy well, such as through sharing stories during regular library visits. The childminder encourages children to explore malleable materials, for example, as she models how to mould and sculpt soft clay. This also helps them to develop the small-muscles skills they need for writing.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
The childminder builds close bonds with children who show that they are happy and secure in her care. The childminder supports children to develop positive social skills, for example, as they visit a playgroup. This also helps them to establish wider friendships groups. Children show that they are independent and able to manage their personal care needs well. They demonstrate self-confidence as they interact with unfamiliar adults. Children behave well and play together cooperatively. The childminder encourages them to share and take turns, such as when discussing portions as they pretend to eat birthday cake. The childminder completes training that helps her to assure children's safety and health. For example, she has enhanced her understanding of food hygiene, how to keep children safe and positive ways to manage behaviour.
p.3
Outcomes for children are good
Older children learn to manage their emotions and behaviour in positive ways. Children who speak another language at home show high levels of confidence as they communicate using good English speaking skills. Children show mathematical awareness as they make patterns in sand. They learn about living things as they help to care for the childminder's pets. Children learn a wide range of skill, which prepares them well for their next stages in learning and for school.
