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

2 February 2022

Children thrive in a nurturing environment where they feel happy and confident. The childminder fosters strong relationships and supports language development through play and commentary. Mathematical skills are incorporated into daily activities, and there is a strong focus on safeguarding. While the overall quality of care is good, there is room for improvement in introducing a wider range of vocabulary and adapting activities for younger children.
