Summary of outcome

On 12 December 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 actions, raised at their last inspection. We found that the manager and staff have improved their knowledge and understanding of how to implement the setting's child protection policies and procedures in practice. The manager and staff are clear on how to follow the settings medication procedures, to help ensure the safe administering of medicines to children. The manager and provider have implemented new procedures to ensure staff complete accurate and sufficiently detailed information and records. Staff update children's individual health care plans when they are made aware of any changes, new allergies and/or dietary requirements. They have suitable procedures in place to help maintain children's health and hygiene. Staff understand how to use effective strategies to help manage children's behaviour.

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.
