p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The childminder understands how to recognise possible indicators of abuse and keeps up to date with relevant training. She knows the correct procedures to follow if she has concerns about a child's welfare. The childminder is organised and regularly updates her policies and procedures. This helps to contribute to the smooth running of her service. The childminder implements robust risk assessment procedures. Measures are in place to identify and minimise potential risks to children. Children learn how to keep themselves safe. For example, they regularly practise fire evacuation procedures and learn what actions to take in the event of an emergency.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder is a good role model. She provides children with clear verbal instructions to help them to understand how to complete activities and follow simple instructions. She engages children in song and rhyme times. Children are confident, they join in with the words and actions and demonstrate good listening and attention skills. The childminder has created interesting resources to engage children's interest and extend their learning. For example, children delight in exploring story boxes containing props from their favourite books. The childminder promotes diversity well, for instance, she supports children to recognise the similarities and differences between individuals as they play with a selection of dolls from a range of cultural backgrounds and with disabilities. Children are self-motivated and eager to learn.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are encouraged to make healthy food choices. This helps to support their development of healthy lifestyles. The childminder gathers and shares detailed information daily with parents. This helps her to adapt children's care routines and support their emotional and physical well-being. Children have regular visits to the park and a daily walk to school to promote their physical development. Children are encouraged to respect their environment and toys and to take responsibility for their play. For example, they help to tidy up when activities are finished. The childminder helps children to learn about self-care routines from an early age. Children behave well.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress from their individual starting points. Children are confident to talk and express their own interests. They are active learners and enjoy becoming involved in every activity that is made available to them. Pre-school children learn about letters and the sounds they represent. Children develop the necessary skills for the next stage in their learning and the eventual move on to school.
