Recommendation 1

1. To support positive outcomes for children and families, the childminder should strengthen how they reflect on the quality of their service. This should include regularly asking children and families for feedback, keeping a record of what is working well and what could be improved, and using this to inform and make positive changes. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS), which state: “I benefit from a culture of continuous improvement, with the organisation having robust and transparent quality assurance processes” (HSCS 4.19)
