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

9 March 2020

A recent inspection revealed a nurturing environment with strong bonds between children and caregiver. A wide range of activities supports various developmental areas, with particularly good mathematical skill-building through sorting and counting exercises. Physical development is encouraged via outdoor play and local park visits. While communication skills are well-supported, the report suggests enhancing letter recognition for older children. Effective safeguarding measures ensure children's safety and well-being.
