Penny Poppins was a very positive experience for my son. Nikki and Kerry are so warm with the children making it a lovely environment. We have done the messy play group and the nursery sessions. My son thrived in the nursery sessions- helped by the group size, the variety of activities and themes, and he made happy friendships too. He was nurtured and developed a lot in Nikki and Kerry’s care. I would highly recommended Penny Poppins to other families.
