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.

Good

19 November 2024

Children thrive in a welcoming environment that supports their learning and development. The curriculum is skillfully incorporated into everyday experiences and play, with particular strength in supporting children who speak English as an additional language. Parents are kept well-informed about their children's progress. While general hygiene practices are good, there is room for improvement in consistency, particularly before mealtimes. The inspection resulted in a 'Good' rating across all areas.
