Always with a smile and happy to help.
Wouldn't mind knowing what are the options when it comes to dietary requirements. We can see the meals rotation but not much info when it comes to requirements.
Thank you for your kind words, I will pass this on to the team.
All the girls in baby room who look after my son are great, when we ask about his day at pick up they can always tell us what he has done, telling us they have all given him attention that day. Communication is good and nursery have always been accommodating if we needed to change or adjust his hours. It is clear to see Arthur loves going into nursery as there is never a day he doesn't come out smiling. Very happy parents.
That's so lovely to hear; thank you for such a positive review.
My daughter enjoyed Hopschotch nursery from the beginning. She loves her teachers and friends. She learns alphabet, numbers, colours and shapes. I really recommend Hopschotch. This is a beautiful and friendly place for your little one.
Thank you for such a great review, we love having her here as much as she loves coming.
Our daughter was 9 months when I went back to work, we were so nervous about putting her in childcare at this age but the staff at hopscotch, Regent’s Park, made all of us feel at ease. We chose this nursery based on the outside space, cleanliness and helpfulness of staff. She is happy to go and has great relationships with the staff. She is very advanced and coming on so well. When faced with a particular issue with our work situation, management really helped us with the issue at hand and made life so much easier for us without it ever being problem. Our daughter is now 17 months and we can’t see her going anywhere until she starts school. We highly recommend this nursery and the staff are brilliant!
Such lovely words, I'm so pleased you felt so at ease when you first joined us and we have loved supporting your daughter as she has grown.
Outstanding nursery, providing a nurturing, caring, and child-centered environment. I have no problem leaving my little boy in the capable hands of the staff at Hopscotch. The staff always have a welcoming smile and gives regular feedback on my son's day. I would recommend this nursery to anyone!
Such fantastic feedback, thank you. I have shared your kind words with the team.
When the eldest left to start year R, I had to transfer the youngest to a nursery nearer the school.
For nearly 3 months, youngest kept talking about Hopscotch and how he missed his teachers and friends at Hopscotch. I ended up sending him back to Hopscotch and he couldn't be happier! To me that says a lot about the environment and teachers at Hopscotch, I believe his experience there is so positive that it made such an impression on him.
Also, one day when the manager was checking how my daughter was coping at big school she mentioned a trait my daughter has that a lot of people overlook. I was impressed at how perceptive she was.
Thank you so much for the review - we have enjoyed every moment of looking after your children, seeing them develop and grow.
We have been so lucky that our son has been attending Hopscotch Day Nursery Regents Park. He looks forward to going to nursery and talks fondly about his teachers and friends. It is lovely to see how well he has bonded with the staff at the nursery. All the staff are friendly, and approachable and we always feel well informed about our sons development and daily activities. We feel confident knowing he is in safe hands and well cared for. Hopscotch have helped our son develop into a clever, happy, charismatic and sociable little boy. We are sad for him to leave in September but they have certainly helped him to become ready for his next steps into school. Thank you.
Thank you for your review and wonderful comments. We will also be very sad to being saying goodbye in September but so proud to have been part of his journey.
We moved our 3-year old to Hopscotch Day Nursery Regents Park after a bad experience with a local childminder. We couldn’t be happier, our daughter has really come out of her shell since joining and is always really excited to go back each day. She is even trying new foods and activities. She loves the staff and I have to say I do too, they are always really friendly and take the time to talk to you. I highly recommend this setting to anyone looking for a nursery in the area. It's such a culture shock from what we are used to but in a really brilliant way! Well done to everyone who makes it such a lovely place!
Thank you for such a lovely review, it's lovely to hear how excited she is to come to nursery.
Friendly, kind and caring staff who make sure our young son spends his time in a relaxing environment learning, playing and socialising with other babies and toddlers. He is very happy and would recommend.
Thank you for such positive review, it's great to hear your son is so happy here.
Hopscotch Day Nursery Regents Park is a great nursery/pre-school with equally great, caring and all round amazing staff. The food is varied and sounds very nice, no complaints from my child. The nursery has an enclosed garden, which is great for playtime and well loved, as well as other activities and the occasional walk to the local area. Five stars for me, I feel my child is perfectly safe and well occupied throughout the day. My child’s speech and understanding have also picked up.
Such lovely comments, thank you. I have passed on your praise to our team.
There is little I can say about this kindergarten my child is eager to go see the kids and educators. If a child willingly goes to kindergarten, I have no doubt that kindergarten is good. It was hard as a mother in the early days to think about how he was doing, how the educators interacted with him, how he interacted with the children. As the educators talk to him, because he is Lithuanian. Are you talking? There were a lot of questions for me about him and anxiety but unnecessarily. The child quickly adapted to the environment. When we go to pick him up from kindergarten he doesn't want to leave. With tears in the beginning, it was difficult taking him. Educators always talk about how he behaves, how he was behaving in a similar way. There’s really nothing wrong I can say about this nursery.
I'm so pleased you feel this way and that your son has such a great time with us. I have shared your kind words with the team, thank you.
Amazing staff and care about our daughter's needs and development. Staff are always friendly and helpful and let us know what she has done that day. Would recommend this place to anyone looking at nurseries for their child.
That's so great to hear, thank you for such a positive review.
Overall, my experience of the nursery has been very good. My daughter has been going there since Aug 21 and is almost 3. She has developed very well and enjoys it there. Staff are very friendly and their care for the children is obvious. Unfortunately, I have not been inside the nursery due to COVID but I hope to be able to look around soon. Therefore my review is really based on such aspects as communication with/from the staff both face to face at the door and over Tapestry, rather than the facilities there. I really do not have complaints but just some areas I think could improve are: tea time - this is very early and my daughter is always hungry around 7 pm so I need to give her a full meal rather than just a light supper. This pushes her to bedtime later. If tea time was an hour later at 4.30-5 then I could just give her something light at 7 pm. The garden looks quite small now compared to the larger, more natural one that was there when she started. Aside from these, I’m very happy.
Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery. We will definitely take on board your comments regarding the afternoon meal and can't wait for the garden to open up shortly. We will keep you posted as it develops.
I cannot fault the girls in the toddler room for the care, love and attention they have given my son. He wasn’t talking before he started, and after just two weeks, he was fully settled and non-stop talking. He asks for the nursery when he’s not there, and he loves all the adults. He even asks for adults from other rooms! The manager has been nothing but helpful, and I think she’s the most wonderful manager! He is very well looked after, and I wish he could stay there forever!
Thank you for choosing Hopscotch. We absolutely love looking after your little one. The nursery really has grown since we took it over in late 2020, and we really enjoy sharing in the children's early years journey.
The entire process has been so smooth. We have been blown away by how quickly our daughter has settled and that she has been excited to attend and very happy at the end of the days.
Communication has been excellent and all our queries were answered so swiftly when we were making the decision to enrol our daughter.
It doesn’t matter which member of staff opens the door, we are always met with such a warm and friendly welcome that has put us all at ease and everyone has been so positive and caring towards our daughter. We are very impressed and so glad we made the move to Hopscotch!
Thank you so much for such a lovely review Katie, we are so pleased that you have found the transition a smooth one and we have loved seeing her become more confident within the setting in such a short period of time!
We had to find a nursery space at short notice as I returned to work from maternity leave, which was a really stressful time. We have been so lucky to join Hopscotch Day Nursery Regents Park when they were in a period of growth and could take our daughter on. Both management and key workers have gone so far in helping us transition into a full time nursery routine, taking away a lot of our stress and creating a really happy place for our little girl. They've done especially well given the pandemic and have made our daughter who had separation anxiety, due to Covid-19 restrictions, really comfortable and well socialised. She has developed a great bond with her key worker and we always feel in the know about her progress and routines. It's also amazing to see how she is constantly stimulated, learning, and being assessed according to Earl Years Foundation Stage.
We are so pleased that her first month with us has been a positive experience and we're enjoying watching her personality grow!

I have been working in childcare for over 20 years. I have gained my Early Years Professional Status as well as my BA in Childhood studies whilst I have been living in Southampton.
I have managed a few other settings across Southampton and Hampshire and have been a nursery manager for over 11 years.
I am lucky to have my own son, Ezra, who is our IVF miracle and will be attending Hopscotch with me too. I also have 2 cats, Chips & Daisy, who I am sure you will hear about including how their names link to Disney!
When I am not looking after Ezra, the cats or working I love to read, go for walks and watch films.
I have been working in the early years sector for over 10 years after I gained my Level 3 Qualification at College! I attended a university where I then gained my BA Honours in Early Years.
I live in Southampton with my husband and our little girl, Letty, who will also be joining the Hopscotch Family! We are a very busy household, with 2 cats, 1 dog and a hamster!
When I am not working, I love watching football, building Lego cars, photography and spending time with my family exploring our community!
I am very excited to get to know you and your families!
