p.1
The provision is good
Children develop strong bonds with the childminder. The childminder gives them comfort and reassurance which helps children feel at home in her nurturing care. The childminder knows children's personalities and individual needs extremely well. She plans learning experiences for children to extend their interests further, such as taking part in music and dance classes.
p.2
The provision is good
The childminder has high expectations of children's behaviour. Children learn to take care of their environment. They sing 'clean up, clean up' when the childminder says it's time to put their toys away. Children enjoy messy play. They explore the texture of gloop with their hands which helps them explore their senses and develop their finger muscles. Children are physically active. They ride bikes and run around in the childminder's garden and enjoy trips to the park where they gain confidence in their movements as they climb and slide on play equipment.
p.2
The provision is good
The childminder helps children recall what they have already learned. For example, children begin to sing 'baa baa black sheep' when she shows them a picture of a sheep. Children know where to find their favourite ball to initiate their own games. The childminder is highly ambitious for children's learning. She plans opportunities for children to build on what they can already do so all children make good progress.

n The childminder uses her observations and assessments effectively to identify the next steps in children's learning. She plans opportunities for children to further develop their skills. For example, she introduces paintbrushes during painting activities to promote mark making as she notices babies have developed more control of their arms and hands. n Children are highly interested in the learning opportunities the childminder plans. Babies focus for long periods of time as they swish and sweep dry rice across a tray and watch the patterns they make. This helps children develop their concentration. n Overall, the childminder's interactions support children's learning well. However, during child-led play, the childminder does not consistently support children to explore their ideas and extend their learning. However, this does not impact on the good progress children make. n Children's communication and language development is supported well. The

childminder promotes back and forth verbal interactions with children as she joins in with their play. Children learn a wide variety of songs and rhymes. As a result, children develop a wide vocabulary and gain confidence in communicating with others.

13 November 2024 n The childminder models positive social interactions. For example, the childminder asks children's permission before moving them on to a new activity and respects their opinion when they say 'no'. This teaches children to respect the views of others. n Children learn to do things for themselves. They smile with pride as they put on the childminder's shoes and feed themselves confidently at lunch time. Children develop skills that will help them be independent in later life. n The childminder teaches children to be healthy. Children enjoy healthy meals and snacks and learn to brush their teeth. The childminder reminds children to drink water regularly and comments on the impact on their body when they are dehydrated. This helps children develop healthy habits and routines. n Partnerships with parents are strong. The childminder discusses children's development with parents and shares ideas for how to support children's

learning at home. Parents speak highly of the guidance the childminder gives, such as providing advice on responding to their children's behaviour. n The childminder completes regular training to keep her knowledge up to date. She spends time with other local childminders, which provides her with new ideas of things to do in the local community. This means children have more opportunities to learn about the world around them.
