She is able to recognise children who may be at risk and knows the procedures to follow if she has any concerns about the well-being of a child. n The childminder shows a suitable understanding of the importance of working in partnership with parents to promote children's well-being and to involve them in their play. n The childminder has a suitable understanding of the importance of working in

This provision does not meet requirements

There were no children present when this inspection took place. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with those who care for the children and an inspection of the premises, equipment and relevant documentation. Where there are no children present, no judgement is made on the quality of the early years provision as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess its impact on children. The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
