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
28 March 2023
Children thrive in a warm and nurturing environment where they feel safe and build strong, trusting relationships with the childminder. The curriculum is well-planned around children's observations and interests, with particularly strong support for communication and language development. Children benefit from regular outdoor experiences and community visits, while parents form positive partnerships and report their children are excited to attend. However, the childminder could provide more opportunities for children to develop independence skills, such as tidying toys and managing personal care. Additionally, better support is needed to help the youngest children recognise and manage their emotions effectively.

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to send our daughter to Katie’s childminding setting. From day one, it has been such a huge relief and reassurance for us as parents.
Since starting, our daughter’s development has flourished—she has learned so many new skills and her speech has improved noticeably. Katie and Lisa do an incredible job organizing so many fun, creative activities that make learning feel effortless for the children. Our little girl is so happy attending the setting and genuinely looks forward to going on her days there.
A special mention has to go to the fantastic meal provision! Having Katie prepare all of her meals has eased so much pressure on me as a mum, especially knowing she is getting such a great, varied range of foods.
The care and attention Katie and Lisa provide is exceptional. They are thoroughly professional, and we always look forward to seeing updates, photos on Tapestry, and reading our daughter’s daily diary to see what she’s been up to.
We truly can’t thank you both enough for everything you do. We are so impressed and couldn't ask for better care for our little girl!
