Inclusion & environment
Children with additional needs receive high levels of support. The special educational needs coordinator and key workers work closely with parents and other agencies to find out about children's needs. They implement specialist programmes and access training to support children's learning and development.
Toddlers learn about sharing as they take turns with equipment in the garden. Toddlers use rakes to clear up leaves outside.
Both my children have been attending Hopscotch since earlier this year. We couldn't be happier with the nursery, the staff and how well they look after the kids. After an initial bad experience elsewhere, I was put at ease immediately during my visit with the nursery manager Marie and am so glad that we found Hopscotch. The carers are all friendly, and professional and helpful. I would definitely recommend Hopscotch to any parent and child as I feel so reassured that they are doing such a good job with our children. :)
Read on GoogleSuch an amazing nursery! run by wonderful people. Both my girls attended hopscotch and they loved it so much.Girls where looked after very well and I could peacefully concentrate on my work.In hopscotch little ones receive excellent care at an affordable price.I have nothing negative to point out. Keep going girls,you are doing an amazing job!
Read on GoogleMy first son attended in 2017-2020 and they were brilliant, however my 2nd child attended this year with speech delay and and their exact words on the phone to me was “they can’t devote all their time to one child” and he is not “up to standard” things like “not feeding himself” is an issue for them. however he does. (He is 2 years old) just a couple of many things said. Attitude is also disgusting from the manager if something isn’t how she wants it. if you have a child with SEN needs avoid.
Read on GoogleI love this nursery! Both my daughters attend full-time and both are happy and settled there. The care offered is just amazing-customised to individual needs and always loving. The setting is beautiful and very clean. There is a soft-play area, which my eldest adores, and a small and cosy garden. The staff genuinely care about the kids they look after and the management is always available and extremely helpful. Kids are engaged in several activities on a regular basis and parents are provided with evidence of this-other than kids messy look and the smile on their face! I recommend this place to every hard-working parent who is looking for reliable and trustworthy childcare!
