Summary of outcome

The childminder now has a robust and safer recruitment process that ensures all adults working with children, are suitable. This promotes children's safety and emotional security. She uses parents information effectively to meet each child's individual needs. This helps children feel understood, settled and well supported in their development.

The childminder works closely with other professionals and shows an improved understanding of how to use external agencies to support children who face barriers to learning. This enables children who need additional help to receive timely support, reducing delays in their progress.

p.1

Summary of outcome

The childminder has established effective systems for reporting accidents and injuries and is now aware of the requirement to notify parents on the same day or as soon as reasonably practical. This ensures children's health needs are responded to quickly and parents remain fully informed about their child's well-being.

p.1

Summary of outcome

The childminder has improved her behaviour management strategies. She now implements consistent approaches, including planning engaging activities to maintain children's interest and helping children understand and manage their emotions. As a result, children experience a calmer environment, learn to regulate their feelings and develop positive social skills.

Summary of outcome

However, we found that the childminder's knowledge of safeguarding policies and procedures remains incomplete. This gap in understanding does not keep children safe if concerns are not recognised or responded to appropriately. As a result, we have issued another welfare requirement notice. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the actions listed below with a specific timescale.
