A childminder who left dirty nappies with urine and faeces on the bedroom floor has been suspended. Education watchdog Ofsted served a legal notice on the childminder, registered in Manchester, following an inspection on October 4 which found that standards were not being met.
The inspection report reveals that flies had started to accumulate in the bedroom and across the house due to the used nappies left on the floor. The dirty nappies had been removed when Ofsted visited again in November, but fresh concerns were raised resulting in another legal notice being served.
The childminder was given until December 2 to take action on a number of issues involving risk assessments, safeguarding procedures and first aid. An anonymous inspection report, which was published last week, explained why the childminder has been suspended.
