Hi - newbie allert! I'm looking at registering as a childminder - was just wondering if anyone could tell me, or link me to a document that outlines what ofsted expect from the home environment? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

Hi ofsted look for safe, nurturing environment where children can learn and achieve. You dont need to have a garden if you can show that you can still provide outdoor play, such as parks, walks etc
