p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a good knowledge and understanding of how to keep children safe and secure. The childminder has recently updated her child protection knowledge and knows the procedure to follow if she has any concerns about the welfare of a child. The childminder thoroughly risk assesses her home and teaches children how to keep themselves safe. The childminder monitors the progress of individuals and groups of children effectively. She ensures their needs are accurately met. The childminder evaluates her practice and provision well to help her identify her strengths and areas for improvement, and how to address them. She displays menus of meals the children have for parents to see.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
The childminder has an accurate understanding of how children learn. She gathers information from parents so that she is clear about children's starting points and interests. The childminder uses observation and assessment to identify effectively where children are in their learning and what she needs to do to support their continual progress. She uses effective ways to promote all children's communication skills. For example, she introduces new vocabulary to support children's language development. Children enjoy listening to stories, looking at the pictures and helping to turn the pages. This helps them to develop their literacy skills. The childminder supports children's early mathematical skills well. Children are able to anticipate how high a coloured ball is thrown. The childminder regularly takes children on outings in the local community, where they meet other people and learn about the world around them.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
The childminder is kind and nurturing and has a positive relationship with the children. She recognises children's achievements and gives regular praise to build their self- esteem. The childminder provides a range of opportunities to encourage children's physical skills. Children are settled, confident and display a positive approach to learning. The childminder helps children to develop positive attitudes towards a healthy lifestyle, and she offers healthy, nutritious meals and snacks. The childminder helps children to learn about different cultures and people around them. She supports children's well- being and sense of belonging, for example, by displaying their artwork and crafts.
p.3
Outcomes for children are good
All children make good progress from their starting points. From a young age, they have opportunities to count and hear mathematical language. They enjoy looking at books and know how to use them. All children show increasingly high levels of confidence in social situations. Children develop personal skills and confidence for the next stage in their learning and in readiness for school.
