This provision is good

n The childminder provides a welcoming environment where children are shown respect. Children confidently make choices about their play. n Children settle well and they form close attachments with the childminder, helping them to feel happy, safe and secure. n Children are confident, inquisitive and voice their own opinions, developing skills for their future learning. n Children have plenty opportunities to practise the physical skills they need for writing, in readiness for school.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The childminder keeps her paediatric first-aid and safeguarding training up to date. She is warm, caring and friendly, and children are eager and energetic to learn. The childminder understands the signs that could indicate that a child is at risk of harm. She knows who to contact if she has a concern about a child's well-being. The childminder gathers information from parents on entry to plan for children's next stage of learning. The childminder evaluates her provision and considers the views of parents and children to help identify areas for improvement. Children take part in fire drills so they know what to do in an emergency. The childminder checks and maintains the environment daily to ensure it is suitably safe for children to play in.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder encourages children's understanding of mathematical concepts through daily activities and discussions. This has a positive impact on children, who use mathematical words when comparing the size of fruits on flash cards. The childminder teaches children about colours as they create their own marks on a water-based drawing mat. Children learn to take turns and share. They sing nursery rhymes and songs together and join in with the chorus. The childminder listens intently to children's questions and responds well, recognising their eagerness to learn. Children confidently use descriptive words during story time, such as 'The man has a big tummy'. The childminder supports their understanding of the story and recalls past experiences to help link the story.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children understand good hygiene practice. They independently wash and dry their hands before eating. Children's behaviour is good. The childminder models the use of good manners and as a result, children readily say 'please' and 'thank you'. The childminder praises children and clearly values their achievements. This helps to support the development of children's confidence and self-esteem. The childminder makes good use of the local environment to promote children's learning and social skills. For instance, she takes them to the park, library, playgroups, supermarket and for walks by the river. The childminder uses resources from the library when supporting children's emotional well-being during transitions to other providers.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children are confident to explore their surroundings and develop their speaking, listening and attention skills. Children who speak English as an additional language make good progress. For example, they recognise the language they use at home in the resources available. Children develop many skills and show enthusiasm as they play and explore. They use their imagination well and confidently share their views. For instance, they request to paint their nose red to surprise a member of their family. Older children are well prepared for the move to full-time school.
