Childminder in North East Lincolnshire

Summary of outcome

All early years providers must meet the legal requirements in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage . If we find that a provider is not meeting the requirements, we can take action to ensure they put matters right. On 23 February 2026, we received concerns that this provider was not meeting some of these requirements. On 5 March 2026, we carried out an unannounced regulatory visit. Following this visit, we served the provider with two Welfare Requirements Notices. These are legal notices that require the provider to take the actions below within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.

We aim to ensure that the welfare of children and young people is protected in the services we regulate. The Childcare Act 2006 and accompanying regulations set out our responsibilities to regulate childminders and childcare providers. This includes the enforcement powers we have in relation to those registered providers who do not comply with the requirements for registration.
