p.1

Summary of outcome

On 10 April 2024, we carried out a regulatory telephone call. We found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements and had taken action to put this right. The setting's induction procedures have since been improved and leaders now ensure that suitably experienced staff work with children under two. However, we found that the provider was not meeting some other requirements. Leaders do not ensure that staff receive adequate supervision which provides opportunity for support, coaching and training to promote the interests of children. We have issued an action for the provider to take within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.

We aim to ensure that the welfare of children and young people is protected in the services we regulate. 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.
