All early years providers must meet the legal requirements in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage, which you can find at www.gov.uk/government/publications/early-years-foundation-stage-framework--2. If we find that a provider is not meeting the requirements, we can take action to ensure they put matters right.

On 24 June 2022, we carried out a regulatory visit. The focus of the visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguarding and welfare actions raised at their last inspection.

p.1

Summary of outcome

During the visit, we found the provider had responded to the actions set. We found that the provider had improved staff's knowledge and understanding of child protection procedures and now they fully understand their responsibilities relating to child protection. In addition, staff understand the procedure to follow if allegations are made against any staff member. Furthermore, they understand child protection legislation to keep children safe from harm.

Summary of outcome

We found the provider had put strategies in place to ensure that a level 3 qualified manager or deputy is in place at all times. Staff are deployed effectively to keep children safe and ensure their needs are met. We found procedures for staff induction and supervision had been put in place and staff working with children aged under two years have received training to work with babies.

Publication of compliance action

We aim to ensure that the welfare of children and young people is protected in the services we regulate. The Childcare Act 2006 and accompanying regulations set out our responsibilities to regulate childminders and childcare providers. This includes the enforcement powers we have in relation to those registered providers who do not comply with the requirements for registration.

Publication of compliance action

We publish details of any actions we take, or the childminder or childcare provider takes to bring about compliance with requirements on our website for a period of five years.
