Thank you for considering Hopscotch for your childcare needs. I too am a working mother and, having been in your position, very much appreciate the dilemma of selecting childcare that meets the high expectations you have for your child and at the same time, helps you to juggle the complexities of busy family life. Only a parent can determine the level of care they require for their child and when I was unable to find a nursery that would provide the standards of staff and care I wanted for my children, Hopscotch was born. In 2005 we opened our first nursery and the philosophy that underpinned our ethos then, ‘that only the best is good enough’ remains key to the way Hopscotch operates today. Since 2005 we have expanded our senior management team to ensure we support the development of every child to their full potential in a safe, secure and stimulating environment. We do this by working to motivate, inspire and lead every childcare team member to enable them to provide the highest possible quality of early year’s education and care. We are committed to our team members’ ongoing personal development and career aspirations from joining us as an Apprentice through to managing their own nursery within the group. We match their commitment to your child with our commitment to them from the day they join Hopscotch. As we have been since day one, we are here to listen to the needs of all the parents and families that choose Hopscotch. Evidence of how we achieve our vision of supporting the development of each child as well as meeting the needs of local families can be seen within our Ofsted reports. We encourage you to visit the nursery that you are interested in to meet our passionate and experienced teams, and to see first-hand all that Hopscotch has to offer. Each nursery is unique but common to all of them is our commitment to you and your child. Welcome Many thanks for considering Hopscotch. Freya Derrick, Founder and Managing Director.
