Good

6 October 2022

A recent inspection found this childcare provider to be 'Good' across all areas. Children feel safe, secure, and happy in the setting, settling quickly upon arrival. The childminder demonstrates a good understanding of how children learn and encourages independence. Outdoor learning is emphasized, with regular access to woodland areas. While safeguarding arrangements are effective, there is room for improvement in managing routine changes and extending language skills for more-able children.
