This provision is good

n Since the last inspection, the childminder has worked closely with parents. She ensures that children who speak English as an additional language hear their home language throughout the day. The childminder has strengthened these opportunities and experiences to promote children's progress in communication and language further. n Children are happy, safe and secure in the childminder's care. She builds secure attachments and supports children's emotional development effectively. For example, children make 'family books' which they use to share photographs and memories of special people, celebrations and events. This supports children's emotional and social skills and establishes a strong sense of belonging at the setting. n The childminder provides children with a stimulating learning environment. She weaves learning through children's interests and fascinations. The childminder maintains children's concentration levels and engagement and promotes their continued

motivation to explore. n Parents are encouraged to share information about their children's learning and development at home. They praise the care and support their children receive. n The childminder does not make the most effective use of assessment information to focus precisely on identifying children's individual next steps. She does not use the information effectively enough to ensure that children progress at the highest level. n The childminder does not make the best use of opportunities to encourage children's independence.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The childminder is committed to her professional development. She keeps her knowledge and skills up to date through regular training. She liaises closely with other professionals and childminder networking groups, to help her develop her teaching skills further. Her relationships with parents are strong. The childminder has frequent discussions with them about their children's progress and well-being and uses parents' feedback to support her self–evaluation. Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a clear understanding of her child protection responsibilities. She is aware of the signs and symptoms that may indicate abuse. The childminder knows how to report any concerns about the welfare of a child in her care.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder knows the children very well and uses effective teaching methods to help children make good progress. For example, she talks to children as they play, showing genuine interest and enthusiasm for what they choose to do. She promotes children's curiosity and perseverance effectively though interactive story times. Children join in excitedly, taking on roles, sequencing events and acting out rhymes confidently with puppets and props. The childminder is skilled at asking children questions to determine their understanding. She gives children time to think. Children benefit from activities that promote their creativity and exploratory skills. For example, they experiment with the different sounds of musical instruments and engage in rich role play. They 'test out' their ideas using torches and construction toys.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children follow good hygiene routines and are encouraged to talk about healthy eating choices throughout the day. The childminder supports children to manage their own personal needs successfully. She reinforces children's confidence levels by providing lots of positive praise and encouragement. All children use their manners routinely. They take turns and share toys and resources during their play. Children's physical abilities develop very well. For instance, children have many opportunities to be active each day in the garden and enjoy regular dance, movement and mini-gym sessions at the local playgroups they attend. The childminder ensures that children learn to respect and value each other's similarities and differences. She provides lots of opportunities for children to learn about various festivals to extend their knowledge of the wider world.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

All children make good progress from their individual starting points. They remain motivated and focused in their learning. Younger children show great satisfaction in meeting their own goals. For example, they climb up onto furniture by themselves, count out bricks as they build towers and operate press-button toys and phones as part of their play. Older children are well prepared for the next stages of their learning. They have many opportunities to develop their early reading, writing and mathematical skills. The childminder helps to secure these good outcomes for children by developing effective learning partnerships between home and school.
