1. To support children's care, wellbeing and development, the childminder should develop children's personal plans. This should include, but is not limited to; ensuring personal plans detail children's wellbeing needs, strategies in place and next steps ensuring consent forms are in place which document parental permission for various aspects of care ensuring all information included in personal plans is reviewed at least every six months with children and their families. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state 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).

1. To ensure that quality assurance processes impact positively on outcomes for children, they should be developed to help identify and inform improvement planning. This should include, but is not limited to, • developing self-evaluation processes • reviewing and updating policies, at least annually, to ensure they reflect and follow best practice and guidance. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state that: 'I benefit from a culture of continuous improvement, with the organisation having robust and transparent quality assurance processes' (HSCS 4.19).

1. To ensure children’s health, wellbeing and safety are supported in a safe environment, the childminder should further develop risk assessments. This should include, but is not limited to developing risk assessments for the home and garden which are specific to her service. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which state that: ‘My environment is secure and safe’ (HSCS, 5.19).
