My Summary
About Me
“Brainy Bugs is a childminding service where we have converted the ground floor of our home solely in to a stimulating and spacious learning environment.
Inside we have two large rooms, the playroom and the learning zone. The learning zone is where our children partake in group activities and tailored one to one sessions. The rooms are bright and airy and are well equipped to provide a safe, stimulating environment. This is where your child can enjoy growing into a confident, independent and sociable young person.
As parents, we know, you will want to make the right choice for your child whatever your requirements. You will want to know that the environment in which your child is in is nurturing and stimulating. As we are a childminders our numbers are small this allows for a more homely one to one approach to your child's care and development.
At Brainy bugs we strive to create a safe, secure and stimulating environment in which each child has the opportunity to develop to their full potential.
My Experience
Background:
I have over 10 years of experience working with children and young adults. I am a passionate and nurturing individual with a particular interest in children's care and development.
I have worked in various settings, from being a nanny to a play-leader at a summer club in Muswell Hill (where I gained extensive experience in working with children with autism and special needs) to working with vulnerable young adults in hostels for LB Camden.
Most recently I worked at St Michael’s primary school working with children aged 4 -11. It is here that I gained first-hand knowledge of children's education. I was able to gain experience in the classroom, then running my own after school clubs. I was here I received several commendations from parents for my work with the children.
I have a bright and friendly 1 year old who loves the company of other children. It was whilst looking for childcare where I discovered the importance of having a safe, loving and stimulating environment for my child. This has prompted me to pursue a career in childminding, where I believe I can offer the best level of care for children.
I have studied primary education at Middlesex University and also have certificates in childcare, child education, autism awareness, and many more. I am OFSTED registered. I have paediatric first aid training, safe guarding and food hygiene certification

Brainy Bugs have been caring for my 17-month-old son for almost a year, and I have only positive things to say about the experience. Telena and the women who work with her are always incredibly warm and kind, and the whole place has a really lovely atmosphere. Because this is Telena's family home too, it feels very safe and unthreatening, but Telana has decorated it in a way which puts most nurseries to shame, with jungly vines hanging from the ceiling and lovely work by the kids on the wall. Like any one year old, my son has had days where he's been teething or overtired, and it is clear that he gets the extra care he needs on those days. While he's too young to actually tell me what he's been up to, it's clear that he's always had fun, eaten good food, and been safe and happy. In addition, when I've had to work later than my lunchtime pick up, Telena has been great at giving me extra hours if she has space.
Like all mothers, I was anxious about putting my son into childcare and whether he'd be ok, but the moment he settled in I knew we were fine. I can't recommend Brainy Bugs highly enough.

Upon visiting brainy bugs setting I was very impressed, it was amazing and none of my children wanted to leave, she has a beautiful outside space with age appropriate toys and activities.
The only reason it's not suited for me are due to financial reasons in regards to deposit plus a month in advanced. But otherwise I would recommend brainy bugs
