My Ofsted Inspections

The inspection grades below have been obtained from the Ofsted website based upon the registration number the childminder has provided to us. You should verify this information yourself prior to using the childminder.

Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
30 January 2020
A recent inspection found that children are thriving in a happy and secure environment with a strong focus on literacy and skill development. The childminder takes pride in settling-in processes, helping children build a sense of belonging. Planned activities support recall and memory skills, with children enjoying access to a range of books. While the learning atmosphere is engaging, there is room for improvement in challenging children's understanding further and providing more opportunities for younger children to explore mark-making and creativity.
