Summary of outcome

We suspended the childminder's registration on 18 September 2025 because we believe children may be at risk of harm. Suspension allows time for the childminder to take steps to reduce or eliminate the risk of harm to children. The childminder has a right to appeal against a suspension. The childminder may not provide childcare for which registration is required while the suspension is in place and may commit an offence if they do so.
