Looking for childminders graded Exceptional under the new Ofsted framework

Good morning everyone,
I’m reaching out to see if anyone knows of a childminder who has recently received an “Exceptional” grading under the new Ofsted framework, or if there are any parents here whose childminder has achieved this in a recent inspection.

I’d love to get in touch and learn what makes a setting “Exceptional” in Ofsted’s eyes. I’m always looking for ways to improve my setting through my own continuous professional development (CPD), and I’m always inspired by seeing excellent practice and hearing what others are doing.
Thank you in advance!

Surely this would get the best response on one of childminder groups?

In short it’s about being good at your job AND good and evidencing it/completing the paperwork.
