Childminder in Ealing

This provision does not meet requirements

n Children's safety cannot be assured. This is because the childminder has a poor knowledge and understanding of her role and responsibility to safeguard children. n The childminder does not know how to manage and report safeguarding concerns, such as an allegation made against her or a member of the household. She does not have a policy or procedures to help her follow the correct process. n The childminder has a weak understanding of her responsibilities to protect children from extremism and radicalisation. n The childminder does not hold a current paediatric first-aid certificate, which means that she is unable to care appropriately for children should accidents occur. n The childminder does not have the relevant insurance to cover her premises, such as public liability. n The childminder does not have a secure understanding of the requirements she must meet. She does not undertake appropriate training to ensure that her

practice continually improves. n The childminder's understanding of her responsibility to notify Ofsted about significant events and changes is poor. For example, she is unaware of her responsibility to notify Ofsted if a child in her care has a serious accident. n The childminder does not keep her knowledge and understanding of the early years foundation stage up to date. She has limited understanding of how young children learn and develop. This means children are not provided with a broad range of opportunities to support their learning.

p.2

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.
