Summary of outcome

We suspended the provider's registration on 20 October 2022 because we believe children may be at risk of harm. Suspension allows time for the provider to take steps to reduce or eliminate the risk of harm to children. The provider has a right to appeal against a suspension. The provider may not provide childcare for which registration is required while the suspension is in place and may commit an offence if they do so.

Summary of outcome

We found the provider had met some of the safeguarding and welfare actions but not others. We found that the provider now has procedures in place to provide children with healthy foods and ensure that fresh drinking water is available at all times. However, we found that their knowledge and understanding of safeguarding policies and procedures remained poor. The provider has not implemented an effective policy, and procedures, to safeguard children. We found that information and records were not organised, made available upon request and that some records are not clear and sufficiently detailed.
