p.1

Leadership and governance Needs attention

The childminder is unable to demonstrate that she has completed a paediatric first-aid course that meets the requirements of the early years foundation stage. This is a breach of requirements. Despite this, the childminder has a clear understanding of her responsibilities to safeguard children. She is aware of the procedure to follow if she has concerns about children's welfare or if an allegation is made against her. The childminder is aware of how to risk assess the environment where she cares for children, to ensure that children are always kept safe.

p.1

Leadership and governance Needs attention

The childminder, through discussion, is able to demonstrate how she intends to plan a suitable curriculum that builds on what children already know and can do. The childminder has attended a range of online webinars and training courses to consider how to organise her provision. She would like to continue to access these opportunities so that she improves her knowledge and understanding of supporting children's learning and development even further. The childminder explains how she will adapt activities to include all children and provide focused support to children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. She describes how she will work effectively in partnership with parents and carers and other settings that children attend.

About this inspection

There were no early years children present and/or on roll at the time of this inspection. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with the childminder and an inspection of the premises, equipment, and any relevant documentation. When there are no early years children present, inspectors only evaluate and grade leadership and governance as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess the impact on children of other evaluation areas.
