Summary of outcome

On 5 June 2026, the provider notified us about matters relating to supporting and managing children's behaviour, SEND, training and skills, safeguarding policies and procedures and concerns about children's safety and welfare. The notification means that the provider met their legal responsibility as set out in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage to notify Ofsted of any allegations of serious harm or abuse by anyone living, working, or looking after children at the premises.

Summary of outcome

On 28 July 2026, we carried out a regulatory telephone call. We found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements. While the provider had notified Ofsted of an allegation against a member of staff, they did not demonstrate they understood this requirement and had made the notification following advice they received from their early years advisor. We have issued actions for the provider to take. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.

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.
