p.1

The provision is inadequate

The childminder does not fully consider children's safety and welfare. She does not use risk assessment effectively to ensure that children are safe and do not come into contact with risks where they play. Large mirrors are propped up against the wall and wobble as children pass them. In addition, the childminder does not ensure that she provides children with their own clean bedding for nap times. Furthermore, the childminder fails to risk assess areas where children sleep.

p.2

The provision is inadequate

Despite this, children are happy and have good relationships with the childminder and her family. Children are confident when separating from their parents and are keen to play as they arrive at the childminder's house. However, the childminder does not help children learn to concentrate. She disrupts their play and activities repeatedly to take them with her to do her laundry.

p.2

The provision is inadequate

Children are keen to explore. However, the childminder does not implement a curriculum that supports children's learning, and they have little free time to play. The childminder provides limited resources, and those provided are not arranged in a way that encourages children to concentrate and focus. Children tend to empty the box of toys on to the floor and, at times, they leave them there because the childminder is too busy to play with them. Children listen to the childminder and like to help to tidy away the toys before nap time.

n The childminder does not identify risks to children where they play. She talks to children about not climbing on chairs because it is not safe, but she does not consider children's safety, as they have unsupervised access to toiletries. Children play in the kitchen and can access cupboards at their level where medication is stored. n The childminder does not follow good hygiene practice to keep children healthy. She puts children to sleep in her bed with her used bedding. Although she encourages children to wash their hands before mealtimes, she does not consider handwashing at other times throughout the day. For example, children do not clean their hands after playing in the laundry and when they have been outside. The childminder does not consider hygiene implications, as she does not wash her hands between changing children's nappies. Children pick up food that their peers have been eating and put it in their mouths without the childminder

The childminder does not provide interesting resources that spark children's engagement in learning. Children wander around and do not focus on or show

5 October 2022 motivation for the resources on offer. n The childminder knows most of the children. However, she does not consider how her plans and routines impact children's learning. Children do not have opportunities to engage in play and learning, as the childminder takes them back and forth to the laundry room throughout the day, which is located on a different floor. This disrupts children's learning; consequently, they are unable to spend time exploring. n The childminder recognises that children need opportunities to get fresh air and exercise. For example, between trips to the laundry, children enjoy using the equipment in the park. The childminder encourages children to climb and to take risks in their play. Children enjoy climbing up the hill to access the slide. n Parents say that they are happy with the care their children receive. Parents say that the childminder talks to them about their children's day. However, the

childminder does not extend this partnership to share information with the other professionals involved in children's care and learning.

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are not effective.

Safeguarding

The childminder does not ensure that she keeps children safe. She fails to identify risks in her environment that could cause children harm. The childminder does not implement effective practice that promotes children's health and hygiene, particularly in relation to sleep routines. The childminder understands child protection procedures, and she is able to identify when a child might be at risk of harm. She implements procedures to monitor children's well-being.
