p.1

The provision is good

Children show that they feel happy, safe and secure in the childminder's care. They develop good relationships with her and seek comfort and reassurance when they feel sad or unsettled. This helps to support children's emotional well-being. Children benefit from key information shared between the childminder and parents when they start their day. This helps children to settle and have their needs met throughout the day.

p.2

The provision is good

Children behave well and have a positive attitude towards learning. They are excited about planned activities. Children play for long periods while exploring the activities. Younger children show enjoyment as they laugh while continuously rolling a ball to the inspector.

The provision is good

The childminder has high expectations for every child. All children make good progress from their starting points, For example, children who speak English as an additional language make progress with their speech. Children interact well together and demonstrate kind and caring actions towards younger children. For example, older children help to feed younger children with the childminder's support.

n Children make good progress from their starting points. The childminder knows children well. She plans a curriculum with a variety of activities and experiences that support children to build on what they already know and can do. The childminder adapts activities to cater to all age groups in her care. For example, older children match objects by colour, shape and size, while younger children sort and explore various objects with the childminder's support. n Children of all ages are confident and independent. Older children select their own activities and express their own ideas to each other. Babies independently explore the resources and interact with visitors. This helps children develop skills needed in later life. n Children learn to enjoy healthy and active lifestyles. They benefit from daily exercise and access outdoor spaces regularly to build muscles and get fresh air. The childminder provides healthy home-cooked meals and offers a range of fruit

and vegetables. Children have access to fresh water throughout the day. n The childminder gives children a wide range of experiences to teach them about the world around them.

She works closely with parents and other professionals to ensure children receive consistent support and care to make good progress in their development. n The childminder encourages children to share and take turns to support their

social skills. However, when resolving minor conflicts, she does not always acknowledge children's feelings or provide clear explanations as to why their behaviour is not acceptable. This means children do not consistently learn how their actions impact others. n The childminder invites parents to participate in surveys to gain their views. She uses this to reflect on her practice and the service that she offers. The childminder has a clear commitment towards her continuous professional development. She prioritises time for her reading or to complete training. This helps her to raise her teaching to an even higher level.
