Summary of outcome

On 21 October 2025, we carried out a regulatory visit to monitor the actions raised and found that the provider has improved their safeguarding knowledge and skills. This includes understanding their responsibilities in reporting matters relating to the suitability of those individuals providing or living on the premises where care is provided. The provider has taken steps to ensure that older children and those children with additional needs are adequately supervised and cared for during school hours to minimise the impact on the care and progress younger children make. The provider has also strengthened her arrangements for recording all accidents and incidents that occur within the setting, to include those relating to challenging behaviour, to help track and identify triggers and trends.

We are satisfied the provider has met the safeguarding and welfare actions raised. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
