Good
18 September 2024
Children benefit from a kind and attentive environment that supports their learning and development. The inspection found good overall quality, with high expectations for children and teaching. There is a strong focus on building social skills and positive attitudes to learning. Areas for improvement include developing partnerships with other early years settings and focusing more precisely on specific learning intentions during activities. Parents are kept well-informed of their children's progress.

Fantastic childminder- goes the extra mile

5 stars

Barbara has been looking after my children for the last couple of years. She really engages with the children offering many outings and adventures, to zoos, aquariums, parks soft plays and days out.

We were given constant updates on our children’s learning journey.
Barbara was fantastic with our children and really encouraged their development.
Nothing is too much trouble and she goes out of her way at to help parents in any way she can. I would highly recommend her to prospective parents.
