Summary of outcome
On 22 September 2025, we carried out an inspection and found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements. The provision was judged to be inadequate. The inspection report sets out the actions the provider was required to take to meet the requirements.
p.1
Summary of outcome
On 15 October 2025, we carried out a regulatory visit. The focus of the visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguarding and welfare actions raised at their last inspection. We found that the provider had not met the actions raised at the inspection. We therefore served a further welfare requirements notice. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the actions below within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.

Summary of outcome
During the regulatory visit, we believed children may be at risk of harm. As a result, we suspended the provider's registration. Suspension allows time for the provider to take steps to reduce or eliminate the risk of harm to children. The provider has a right to appeal against a suspension. The provider may not provide childcare for which registration is required while the suspension is in place and may commit an offence if they do so.
p.1
Summary of outcome
On 17 November 2025, we conducted a regulatory visit. During the visit the provider notified us of their wish to resign their registration. They are no longer a registered childcare provider.
