Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
25 May 2023
A recent inspection found that children make good progress in a positive, home-like environment. The childminder focuses on developing communication and language skills through a meaningful curriculum based on children's interests. Regular outdoor activities and library visits support physical and social development. Safeguarding arrangements are effective, and children's health is generally well-supported. Areas for improvement include enhancing hygiene routines and building stronger links with other early years settings that children attend.

Diane was God sent for me as I was due to start work in about a month after my mat leave but couldn't find a suitable childcare arrangement. Diane took my 1 year old in and after 2 settling in sessions she was happy to spend time at Diane's. My little one enjoys her time with Diane's kids too after school. Diane updates about my little ones daily status when asked and is prompt with replies. She also takes her out to parks, library and does some play sessions at home too.
