This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder does not ensure that she understands or fulfils all aspects of her role effectively. For example, she has not informed Ofsted regarding changes to assistants who occasionally work at the setting. While assistants have enhanced disclosure and barring (DBS) checks, she does not ensure that all other relevant checks have been completed. In addition, she is not aware of her responsibly to inform Ofsted about changes to the premises. This means that Ofsted are not kept up-to-date to allow these changes to be reviewed and risk assessed. n The childminder knows how to identify and deal with concerns about children's welfare. This includes what to do if potential allegations are made against the childminder or her household members. She undertakes risk assessments of the premises. Despite this, she has failed to install a fire detection system to enable a swift evacuation in the event of a fire.

This provision does not meet requirements

There were no children in the early years age range present when this inspection took place. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with those who care for the children and an inspection of the premises, equipment and relevant documentation. Where there are no early years children present, no judgement is made on the quality of the early years provision as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess its impact on children. The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
