1. To ensure children's wellbeing needs and routines are met, the childminder should further develop personal plans. These should be formally reviewed at least every six months with children and families. This should include, but is not limited to: • Identifying children’s current routines and health needs • Identifying and evaluating children’s likes, dislikes, and progress • identifying next steps in their learning and development. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: 'My personal plan (sometimes referred to as a care plan) is right for me because it sets out how my needs will be met, as well as my wishes and choices' (HSCS 1.15).
