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
18 October 2024
Children in this setting are happy, safe and confident, benefiting from a relaxed and nurturing home environment. They demonstrate good behaviour, use kind manners, and build a broad vocabulary through engaging activities such as book sharing and discussions about the natural world. The curriculum is well organised, with healthy eating and physical activity encouraged, and safeguarding arrangements are effective. Parents speak highly of the warm welcome and communication they receive. However, children would benefit from more opportunities to solve problems independently and to express themselves freely through creative and artistic activities, rather than being guided too closely by the childminder.
