About Tetita Childcare
Tetita Childcare Club is Ofsted registered childcare provider, providing wraparound care for parents and schools in the local community. The club is open* from 7.00am until 8.30am and 3.10pm until 5.30pm weekdays, during term time. We also offer holiday care (except bank holidays) from 8.00am to 5.00pm.
Aims
At Tetita Childcare, we aim to provide a safe and secure and relaxed environment, offering a range of activities to reflect the interests of the children in our care.
What we offer
Our Club follows the Playwork Principles, so the children are free to choose activities and resources as they wish. There will always be a selection of activities and resources available, including dressing up, home corner, craft, board games, construction, computer games, physical play, cookery, and reading.
What we provide
The food we provide at the Club is not intended as a substitute for a main evening meal. We provide healthy snacks and drinks.
- We follow statutory guidelines. Fresh drinking water is available at all times.
- We meet individual dietary requirements and parental preferences wherever possible.
- We recognise the importance of healthy nutrition for children delivered in a calm, friendly setting.
- We allow children to decide when they are ready to eat, but request that food be consumed whilst sitting at the snack table.
Staffing
Our Club is staffed by a manager and playworkers and where needed, volunteer staff. We aim to provide a smooth transition between school and club.
All of our staff have significant experience of working with children and undertake professional development training. All staff members are DBS checked.
We maintain a staff/child ratio as required by Ofsted.
If you have a query or concern at any time, please speak to a member of staff at the club when you collect your child.
If you prefer to arrange a more convenient time for a meeting please contact the manager (contact details are at the back of this Handbook).
Organisation
Tetita Childcare is run as a private business, employing five staff. We hope to have a close working relationship with our schools in order to ensure continuity of care, and to maintain good communication links.
