This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder has not updated her paediatric first aid certificate. This means she is unable to promote children's health in an emergency situation. n The childminder does not hold appropriate childminding insurance to ensure that children and their families are covered in the event of an accident. n The childminder is unaware that she must have regard for the Prevent duty guidance. In addition, she is not well informed about British Values, which helps to give children resilience against radicalisation. n The childminder demonstrated she has a suitable understanding of good hygiene procedures. She discussed how she will teach children to manage their self-care independently to help to prepare them for school. n The childminder understands how to make observations of children's learning. She describes how she will use these to assess and plan for what children need to learn next.

p.1

This provision does not meet requirements

There were no children present when this inspection took place. 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.
