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
4 July 2024
Children in this setting form strong, trusting relationships with their childminder, who creates a warm and nurturing environment where they feel safe and confident. A well-planned and ambitious curriculum supports good progress in learning, including early mathematical and language skills. Children behave well, show kindness towards others, and enjoy a variety of activities both indoors and in the community. Partnerships with parents are strong, and safeguarding arrangements are effective. However, the childminder does not always allow children enough time to respond to questions, and sometimes introduces new activities too quickly, which can distract them from their play.

chloe i am an ofsted rated good childminder your daughter attended two days once for 3 hours and the second time for 4 hours within that time she had several drinks and also had her nappy changed she also had her lunch here and was still eating when you collected her with the other children you then wanted her to attend another day to see if she would settle and if not then take her somewhere else some children take much longer than 15hours to settle and you only did 7 hours you also told me you were a very anxious mum you could tell this was the case and maybe your little girl picked up on this i wish you well on finding another minder as i know you are still looking
