Beechbud

About Me

My name is Tegan and I run Beech Buddies Childcare which is a private OFSTED registered, childcare setting for babies and children based in Kenilworth, Warwickshire.

I have many years of experience caring for children alongside my role as Mommy to my son Maximus.
My nursery nurse career started when I took the job of a cook at a nursery and realised I loved spending more time out of the kitchen with the children than in it. Since then I've worked in two nurseries and a secondary school, steadily gaining experience and qualifications along the way;
I am NVQ Level 3 qualified in Children's Care, Learning and Development as well as holding an NVQ Level 1 from British Gymnastics, another passion of mine. Alongside these I also have a current Paediatric First Aid qualification, a Warwickshire County Council approved Childminding qualification, Child Protection Level 1 qualification and a Level 2 qualification in Food Safety.

My daily mission is that every child who spends time in our home feels safe, has fun and can't wait to come back. I live with my husband Chris, our son Maximus and my brother Dylan. Both my husband and brother hold current DBS checks and are amazingly supportive of what I do, and without them many of the play areas in our home and garden wouldn't have been created. We also share our home with our dog Carla, she's a labrador/boxer and spends most of her days snoozing in-between seeing off the pigeons who dare to land in our garden.

As a family we try and lead a healthy lifestyle and a hugely important part of that is eating well. All the meals and snacks I serve are full of the right nutrition and made specifically so your little ones, and mine, feel full and re-fuelled ready to get back to the serious business of play!

My current hours are posted above but I understand the need to be flexible so please feel free to ask for an earlier start, a later finish or half days.
I work out my prices at an hourly rate of £4.25 (April 2014) which includes all snacks, meals, drinks and everything involved in having fun and being creative.
