This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder does not have public liability insurance. This is a breach of requirements. n The childminder does not effectively evaluate her practice to identify breaches in requirements and recognise where improvements can be made. Despite this, the childminder has updated her safeguarding knowledge since the last inspection. n The childminder cannot successfully explain how she intends to deliver a full, varied and challenging curriculum. Nonetheless, she can confirm she will assess children's progress at the age of two. n The childminder is aware of safeguarding issues. For example, the childminder recognises when a child might be at risk of radicalisation and female genital mutilation.

This provision does not meet requirements

There were no children in the early years age range 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 early years 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.
