This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder has not kept her paediatric first-aid qualification up to date. Although she has completed an online course, this does not meet legal requirements. This is also a breach of the requirements of the Childcare Register. n The childminder describes how she will plan activities to build on what children already know and can do to meet the interests, ages and abilities of children in her care. She understands how to observe and monitor their development to help them make progress. n The childminder describes how she will promote positive behaviour and how to encourage children to play cooperatively, share and take turns. n The childminder demonstrates her understanding of child protection procedures and knows when a child's welfare may be at risk and whom to contact about her concerns. n The childminder describes the strengths and areas of her provision she would like to improve. For instance, she would like to attend a sign language course

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.
