Very lucky to have sent all 3 of my children here over the past 6 years. A warm, welcoming and fun nursery that you really feel cares about your child. The teachers are so good with the kids and create a home like environment, fostering relationships with the kids as well as nurturing their development.
My kids have all learned so well with their approach and are excited to tell me all the creative things they have done in their day.

Pippa is the best nursery. We've had our oldest daughter going there and we decided to put our second one too, she is currently there.
They are nurturing, teach kids confidence and support their learning journey in a unique way. They will always gently challenge the children to make them thrive. My
eldest entered reception this year and she is quite advanced in reading and maths, which boosted her self-confidence.
The setting of the nursery itself is so pretty and clean, you feel like you enter in a doll house!
Also, they divide children into small classes, so they get used to be in this setting for school.
The food is all organic and made there everyday by 2 cooks, their meals are delicious and high-end (e.g. lamb tagine).
I would just say that it is quite expensive compared to other nurseries though, but we still put our children there, because it is the best.

My eldest daughter went to Pippa Pop-ins a few years ago and now it's my 2 year old son. I highly recommend this nursery. I immediately felt comfortable to leave my children there. The staff are loving, caring but also very professional. Everything is very well thought out to suit the children's needs.
It's super clean (hygiene is an important criteria) and food is healthy. There are themed activities every week, even for the youngest ones. Children learn and have fun!
Can't recommend this nursery enough!

We love Pippa Pop-ins, having sent both our eldest (who just started school and was very well prepared for reception based on the PP curriculum) and our youngest is currently in Tiddlypops.
It's a testament to how much we all have loved our time there that almost all the children in the class have
had older siblings at the nursery.
Our son is young for his year (July) and does full days, and yet he has pretty much loved it since day one with no tears at the door. He has already made firm little friends whose names were amongst his first words.
One of my favourite features is the extracurriculars like action Amanda and little foxes that come to the nursery and that my kids have loved.

2. Teachers/staff are friendly, approachable and have the right

3. Classrooms are well organized and easy to navigate.

5. Teachers and staff take the time to talk through how your child is doing and always taking the time to do so, never making you feel rushed.

My 3 children (boy and girls) have been to Pippa Pop-ins and I can honestly say they have done a great job with them, teaching them essential skills such as reading and writing but also life skills such as emotional management. The staff is absolutely brilliant, kind and caring. I would recommend Pippa
Pop-ins
to any family.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (9.048)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (9.048) out of 10 for Pippa Pop-ins is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.810 for Pippa Pop-ins is calculated as follows: ( (70 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.81

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.238 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pippa Pop-ins is based on 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.7

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 65 number of registered child places is 13. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.538

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
