Hippitots Children's World

About this day nursery

Hippitots Children's World is a long-established childcare setting in Coxhoe, with over 22 years of experience in the local community since opening in 2003. Dedicated to nurturing and enriching all children, the nursery offers a high-quality, safe, and engaging environment.

The setting is inclusive, responsible, respectful, and collaborative, with a team of highly experienced Early Years Teachers focusing on a play-based learning atmosphere. The traditional building features homely facilities and accommodates 48 children across three main play spaces: The Baby Room, Little Rainbow Room (for toddlers), and The Jigsaw Room (preschool).

There's also a large, enclosed garden for outdoor play and exploration. Hippitots is open 51 weeks a year, closing only between Christmas and New Year, and for bank holidays and training days.

The nursery provides meals throughout the day, including breakfast, a two-course lunch, and savory tea, with fresh fruit and water always available. They use Famly for effective communication with parents, providing instant updates, easy communication, and in-app payment options.

Recognising the importance of routine for children's security and emotional regulation, each play space has its own structured day, with meal and sleep times as anchor points.

What it's like

Children thrive in this family-orientated nursery. Babies benefit from a small home-from-home environment, where staff focus on babies' individual care and learning needs. Older children thoroughly enjoy making 'cement' and building a museum outside. Children behave well, are polite and well mannered.
