My son has attended this nursery since it opened in September 2024, and I can't praise it enough. The staff are welcoming, friendly, and there is always a lovely atmosphere at both drop-off and pick-up. Management are approachable and always willing to help. His key workers in both the baby and toddler rooms have been fantastic, keeping us updated on his progress and advising how to support him at home. The facilities are clean, well-equipped, and the outdoor areas are stimulating and enjoyable for the children. Any minor issues have been dealt with promptly, and the nursery is always accommodating with personal requests. I've attended stay-and-play sessions, which provided great insight into his day and reassurance that he's happy and well cared for. My son comes home talking excitedly about what he's done, who he's played with, and what he's eaten during the day. His development has come on immensely, and I'm so grateful for the excellent care he receives.

I could not recommend this nursery enough. My daughter loves attending her days here at Hopscotch and she has been progressing so much since she joined earlier this year. The staff are so kind and attentive, they do great activities/outings and the food menu's great. We are always kept informed about any updates.

My child has not even been at Hopscotch for a month and I am delighted with the progress she has made. As a nervous mum, I was skeptical with leaving my daughter but the care my child has received has made me feel very reassured that she really is in the best of hands! My daughter talks non stop about the staff members at home and is very keen for her nursery days! There is plenty of opportunities for a variety of learning as there are always exciting activities out for the children. I am really pleased with Hopscotch and cannot wait for my daughter to progress more there.

Both my sons attending Hopscotch Day Nursery Sholing, they absolutely love going in. My 2 year old goes in happy and comes out always happy within the 2-3 rooms theres always activities set up ready for the children to get straight in, also the staff in this room are amazing and my son feels comfortable going to anyone if needed. Hand overs are always indepth. My 1 year old also attends and loves seeing his key worker when going in, he loves exploring all there interesting activities and is growing as a whole since he started. Always following routine and get indepth handovers at pick up time. When ever we walk into the reception my son has to high 5 the Manager and deputy even though they could be busy they still make time for him to say hi. The foyer area is always clean and tidy. Overall all staff members are polite and welcoming!

We attended Sebastian's Grandparents afternoon on the 6/10/25. Both Nan and Grandad came along. We found the nursery welcoming and you can see the staff love their jobs Sebastian seems settled and enjoys his days at nursery. It was good to talk to the staff who know Sebastian the best, they all said he's a joy to have. Both of us have seen a big improvement in his speech and the way he listens and plays with other children. We would like to say thank you for the afternoon and Sebastian grandad loved reading and playing with Sebastian little friends

I cannot express how wonderful this Nursery is, every single staff member are so kind and helpful. My child struggles to settle in the first few weeks and now she never wants to leave! It's incredible

I am so impressed by the communication within the nursery. From settling in session to starting, the communication has been consistent. The nursery has a family feel, the team seem really smiley and happy in their work surroundings. The staff are helpful and super accommodating. I feel comfortable dropping my baby off (even if she's crying). I know you will reply and reassure me she's ok after Iv left. Thank you

As a parent, choosing the right nursery for our child was such an important decision and we are so happy we chose Hopscotch. From day one, the staff have been incredibly welcoming, caring, and attentive. They made the settling-in process smooth and reassuring, not just for our child, but for us as parents too. We love receiving regular updates on food, naps, photos, and observations. Our child's key worker has created a warm, trusting relationship that made a world of difference in helping our little one feel safe in his new routine. As parents, it gives us such peace of mind to know our child is in a place where they are truly cared for! We can't recommend you highly enough!

I cannot speak highly enough of Hopscotch Sholing and the difference it's made to my son since he started in May. He's always been a confident little boy but the key workers in the toddler room have helped improve his speech, his gentle hands, his eating, use of single words and they expose him to so much singing, dancing and signing which he loves to do. At drop off, every time, I know I am leaving him in capable hands, with individuals who are so caring and kind. The updates we receive make our day as we continue to see his development week on week. We have recently started potty training and staff have followed this through expertly and kindly, giving full updates throughout the day. Our boy is so excited each morning for his nursery days and that's all we can ask for. The setting itself is exceptional, the best we ever looked at; it's clean and inviting, newly built and the toddler room and garden is amazing. I praise the nursery to mum friends often, thank you for all you do!

I highly recommend Hopscotch Sholing, my daughter attends and has come so far with her development whilst being there and settled very well. All of the staff in the baby room are so supportive and lovely! My daughter's key person is amazing and has built up such a lovely bond with her aswell as the other staff in the room. My daughter has adapted so well to the routine and the staff have been really good at following what we do at home and any updates from home given to them. I love receiving the many observations that I get updating me on what my daughters been doing throughout the day. I'm really happy with this setting and couldn't ask for a better place for my child to grow.

My daughter has been going here since it first opened in September and she loves it there, I walk away every morning knowing she's in safe hands and very well looked after, I would like to thank all the staff there for looking after my daughter. She comes home and tells me what they've been up to and how much she enjoys it there and how much she loves the food, her favourite is the fish curry, considering before starting her journey at Hopscotch Day Nursery she would never touch fish. She has come such a long way since joining here and the staff help so much to get her to the level she should be.

My daughter loves going here and I couldn't be happier with the care she receives. The staff are incredibly attentive, proactive and genuinely dedicated to the children's wellbeing. The facilities are wonderful, always clean, tidy and well-maintained. The sensory room is great and my daughter absolutely loves it. The staff come up with creative and engaging ways to entertain the children every day. The meal times are fantastic too, with a variety of food always provided. The nursery's app is always up to date, giving me insight into my daughter's day. A special mention to the deputy manager, who is incredibly kind and helpful. Also the ladies in the baby room! They're so patient and caring and my daughter had a wonderful time there. Now in the toddler room, she adores the ladies in there and can't wait to see them every morning! They come up with the best ideas for play/education. Their patience is unmatched! I would highly recommend it.

Couldn't praise Hopscotch Day Nursery Sholing and it's staff enough. They have gone above and beyond to support my son's needs right down to dietary. My son is SEN and the difference in him since starting has been amazing. Nothing is ever too much effort.

Our daughter has thrived since starting at Hopscotch Sholing. She looks forward to her nursery days so much she asks to go on days she isn't due to attend (including the weekend!). Her key worker is fantastic and has formed such a wonderful bond with her in such a short space of time. Thank you for everything you do!

Our little girl has been attending Hopscotch Day Nursery Sholing since September and LOVES it. She has made friends and doesn't stop talking about it when she isn't there. Her key worker is amazing with her!

My 1 year old daughter joined the nursery 3 weeks ago. The first few days she didn't eat or drink anything. The staff members have been amazing with her and now she is settling in very well, eating, drinking, sleeping and engaging with other children and staff. I am so pleased and lucky that my daughter is in good hands and I highly recommend Hopscotch Day Nursery. The staff members are very kind, supportive, passionate and it is never a trouble for them to keep you updated on how your little one is doing. I cannot thank them enough!

Really happy with the nursery. Within 3 weeks of joining our daughter finally started crawling and we believe that is down to the nursery girls and their encouragement. We have also been pleased to see the variety of food that is served. The quality of the facilities available for the children are absolutely fantastic and we feel incredibly lucky that our daughter has a place. Thank you Hopscotch.

I am so pleased to have found this nursery for my daughter. She is absolutely thriving and it's all because of the wonderful, caring staff and management at Hopscotch Day Nursery. Communication with parents is excellent and the care that they have taken of her eczema is beyond my expectations. Thank you to all the dedicated staff members there!

My son started Hopscotch Nursery Sholing on the 30th September and the team have been absolutely amazing. He cannot wait to go to preschool each day and he loves coming home to tell us all about the things he's been doing. His tastes in food have grown and he will often ask for food he's eaten at preschool for dinner. We cannot thank the team enough for helping him to settle in, ensuring us as parents are happy with everything and for being simply amazing people
