My Summary
About Me
Hi my name is Tegan I live with my partner and my 2 children Finley and Aria. We have a dog called Pebbles and a cat called Max. We are an active family and love spending time outdoors.
I aim to provide children with lots of outdoor learning experience, learning through play about the world around them. I believe children love to try new things and this inturn builds up their confidence to become more independent. I offer lots of trips out such as; the park we have 3 different parks all within 5 minutes walking distance for different ages. We have a local farm near which we will visit to learn about animals first hand. We will also visit places like the sealife centre, beaches and woods. I do offer swimming sessions, there are limited spaces to ensure ratio is safe in the pool. I offer climbing sessions 2x per week in the evening which can be booked into.
I offer a range of activities at home. We have lots of different toys all for a range of ages to encourage creativity. I have a range of arts and crafts equipment ready for children to make their masterpieces. I have a lovely outdoor play area with astro tuff flooring, a climbing thrame with slide, sand and water play, paddling pool and many more fun activities.
I have lots of different books for all ages and for all occasions. We have books that will provide support for your children to learn about emotions and behaviours without feeling pressured. I believe being read to and reading is a great learning tool, this is a lovely calming activity that the children can pick at any time.
I offer the opportunity for your children to take part in local events and competitions to be part of our community. I offer opportunities to achieve Blue Peters badges and rewards.
My aim is to provide flexible childcare for children where they can learn and grown in a fun and exciting way.
