Summary of outcome

On 10 January 2024, we carried out a regulatory visit to monitor the actions set on the welfare requirements notice. We found that the provider had met some of the safeguarding and welfare actions but not others. The provider has taken action to ensure the premises is safe and secure. They have re-assessed risks to children and taken appropriate steps to remove or reduce these hazards. The provider has also taken steps to inform parents and carers of vital information about their child's time at the setting. However, they had not met other actions set in the welfare requirement notice. We have served another welfare requirements notice. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the actions below within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.

Summary of outcome

On 6 February 2024, we carried out a regulatory visit to monitor the actions set on the welfare requirements notice. We found that the provider had taken action to ensure that all children are assigned a key worker. Staff know the children that they care for well. Staff are aware of each child's home language, medical needs and any additional support that they may require. Those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, all have a key worker. Lead members of staff ensure that appropriate referrals are made to other professionals so that support can be provided to those children.
