This provision is good

progress with their development. n The childminder misses some opportunities to challenge and stretch children's learning further.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The childminder and her assistant attend safeguarding and paediatric first-aid training. They have a secure knowledge of child protection issues and the procedures to report any concerns about children's safety. The childminder and her assistant work closely with parents and other providers that children attend, to share regular information about children's care and learning. The childminder encourages parents' involvement to assess and monitor children's progress. They plan together what children should do next to provide consistency and to extend children's learning at home. The childminder considers feedback from parents, children, her assistant and the local authority childminding development officer to help evaluate and improve her service. She completes regular supervision meetings with her assistant to offer guidance and to put in place an improvement plan.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The childminder provides stimulating opportunities to keep children engaged and to help them develop new skills. For instance, children use their hands and small items to explore with sand. They learn to dig, scoop and move the sand from one container to another. The childminder joins children's play to interact with them and to support their social skills. For example, she comments on their play and encourages them to take turns to use the resources. Children keenly listen to stories and they willingly sing along to familiar nursery rhymes. This helps to increase their vocabulary. Children show interest in small-world resources such as dinosaurs, animals and construction toys. The childminder plans opportunities for children to learn about different things and places in the community. She supports them to develop their growing awareness of nature and insects as they use a magnifying glass to search for snails in the garden.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children develop their personal and self-care skills effectively. They demonstrate high level of independence during their play and routine tasks. The childminder encourages children to develop a healthy lifestyle. For example, she provides healthy food for them to eat, ensures they drink water to keep hydrated and provides outside physical play. Children behave well. They listen and show respect to others. The childminder and her assistant set clear boundaries to teach children right from wrong. They display positive relationships and model good manners for them to copy and learn. The childminder and her assistant promote equality and diversity well. They provide opportunities to make children aware of the similarities and differences for families in the community.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children make good progress in comparison to their starting points. They acquire the skills required for the next stage in their learning. For example, children express themselves confidently and display good mobility and coordination. They learn to use their imagination well as they pretend to use an item for different purposes. Children grasp and handle resources successfully. They recognise their own achievements and value receiving regular praise for what they have done.
