Summary of outcome

On 13 February 2025, we carried out a regulatory visit. We found the provider had met some of the safeguarding and welfare actions but not others. The provider now ensures that at least one person who has a current paediatric first aid certificate is on the premises and available at all times when children are present. The provider has reviewed their admission process to ensure that information about children's dietary and medical information is obtained before they are admitted to the setting. This ensures that staff have key information to help them understand children's individual needs at the start of their admission to the setting. Furthermore, staff have completed training that specifically addresses the care of babies. Staff can explain how this training has helped them to consider the learning environment for those very young children to help them make progress in their learning and development.
