This provision is good

n Children have a strong bond with the childminder. She is very caring and provides ongoing encouragement and praise. This supports their growing independence and self-esteem. n The childminder regularly observes and assesses children's progress effectively. She provides a range of enjoyable activities and resources that interest children, and helps them to swiftly move forward in their learning. n Partnerships with parents are good. Parents express that their children are happy and enjoy their time with the childminder. They also value and appreciate the good level of communication, and feel that they are kept up to date about their children's new achievements and development. n The childminder has very good relationships with other settings children attend. For instance, she frequently exchanges information with them and implements planned activities in line with what children are learning about. This helps to provide continuity

in children's learning. n The childminder reflects well on her provision to help her identify and address further areas for future development. n On occasions, the childminder does not provide the highest level of challenge in activities to fully support children to develop their thinking skills further. n The childminder does not fully consider arrangements for quieter activities or opportunities for children to rest while others continue play. This means some children's concentration and learning are not consistently promoted during these times.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a clear understanding of her responsibility to keep children safe and understands who to contact if she has any concerns about a child's welfare. She carries out regular risk assessments to identify and minimise any hazards, and children are supervised well. The childminder attends regular training and engages in professional discussions with other professionals. This helps to continue to develop her skills and enhance children's learning. The childminder evaluates her provision well. This is illustrated when she seeks parents' and children's views to make positive changes that benefit families and children. For instance, children make suggestions about different activities and outings that they want to participate in. The childminder successfully involves parents in children's learning from the start. They collaboratively discuss children's stage of development on entry and how they can work

together to foster their future learning.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder provides children with interesting opportunities to learn and engages effectively with them. She models speech and new language, and supports children's choices and spontaneous play well. The childminder is a good role model. She gives clear explanations and demonstrations to help children to develop new skills. Children enjoy being creative and imaginative. This is evident as they pretend to feed babies and experiment with play dough. Children show good levels of interest in numbers and other mathematical concepts. For instance, they enjoy exploring number puzzles and frequently count and make comparisons during their play.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children's emotional well-being is a priority for this nurturing and attentive childminder. She closely supports children when they need extra help and provides them with reassurance and guidance. This helps to build children's confidence. Children behave extremely well and respond positively to the childminder's calm manner and high expectations to achieve in their learning. The childminder supports children's physical well-being effectively. For example, children enjoy daily opportunities to be active and play outdoors. The childminder also takes children to a variety of places in the local community to support their ongoing interest in the wider world.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make expected progress from their starting points and gain essential skills to prepare them well for their next stage in learning, including nursery and school. Children show developing independence as they make choices about their learning. For example, they select books to share with the childminder and thoroughly enjoy discussing the pictures. Children show a positive approach towards learning and are eager to try new things for themselves.
