Summary of outcome

On 12 October 2026, 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, on the welfare requirements notice. We found that all leaders with the designated safeguarding responsibility updated their safeguarding training and improved knowledge of reporting requirements in line with the local safeguarding partnership procedures, to protect their welfare. Staff attended training on safer eating and improved practice to ensure they supervise children while eating. The provider ensured that staff: child ratios are maintained, and staff are deployed effectively to supervise children. Staff received training on how to record accidents and developed an understanding of keeping an accurate record of accidents, injuries and first aid treatment given to children.

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.
