p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The childminder is committed to her role. She seeks the views of parents to help improve her provision. Safeguarding is effective. The childminder keeps her knowledge up to date to assist her to recognise the signs that a child might be at risk. She has clear procedures in place and knows what to do if she has a concern. Careful monitoring and reviews of children's progress ensure that the childminder can quickly identify any gaps and plan additional support to help them catch up. She ensures that she provides a broad range of interesting and challenging experiences to help children to make best possible progress. Successful partnership working with parents and other settings children attend ensures that there are good opportunities to share information about children to help provide continuity in their care and learning.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children benefit from an abundance of experiences that helps develop their early communication and language skills. For example, they have regular conversations with the childminder, who encourages them to learn new words, relive past experiences and talk about people who are significant to them. She successfully supports children's mathematical development. For instance, children use numbers and counting during everyday activities and learn to identify the differences when weighing heavy and light objects. The childminder uses their interest in peoples different occupations to help them to understand their wider world. For example, when children show an interest in the refuse collection lorry, she talks to them about the role of a refuse collector and how with important they are.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are happy and settled. The childminder is sensitive and responsive to their individual needs and adapts her routine to meet these. She promotes children's behaviour well and provides clear guidance to help children understand what is and is not acceptable behaviour. The childminder is highly successful in helping children to become independent in managing their own care routines. For example, children know the importance of following robust hygiene practices and use the toilet independently. The childminder places a good emphasis on helping children to understand the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. They benefit from physical activity, such as visiting parks to climb trees and splash in puddles, and enjoy healthy and nutritious meals and snacks.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress from their starting points. They make independent choices from a good range of resources and play materials. Children enjoy listening to stories and singing along to rhymes. They demonstrate confidence in speaking and listening, and treat each other with kindness and respect.
