Settling in at Hopscotch
Starting nursery is a big milestone - and we know it can feel emotional for both children and parents. With over 36 years of experience, we’re here to make those first days feel smooth and reassuring, so your little one can settle happily into nursery life from day one.
At Hopscotch, we build strong relationships with families right from the start. Our priority is that your child enjoys every day with us - and that you feel confident, reassured and supported when you leave them in our care.
Settling In PackWhat to expect
During your settling-in sessions, we’ll take time to get to know you and your child – and you’ll have plenty of space to ask questions too. You’ll meet your child’s Key Person, who will be your main point of contact at nursery, or another experienced member of the team from your child’s group. This is our chance to understand your child’s unique needs, likes and routines, so we can give them the very best start at Hopscotch.
One of our friendly Managers will also pop by to say hello and personally welcome you to Hopscotch.
We offer as many free settling-in sessions as you need – though most families find that two or three is just the right amount to feel reassured, confident and ready for this exciting new adventure.
