Outstanding childcare is delivered in an exceptionally welcoming and well-organised home environment where children become highly confident, independent learners. The childminder demonstrates exceptional skills in assessment and planning, promptly identifying and addressing any gaps in learning to ensure all children make outstanding progress. Following national lockdowns, particular attention has been given to supporting language and communication development through highly effective activities and a language-rich environment. Strong partnerships with families and effective teamwork with co-workers ensure consistency of care, with parents describing the setting as their children's 'home away from home'. Safeguarding arrangements are effective and the setting maintains its outstanding rating across all inspection areas.
