Family Engagement & Parent Support at Hopscotch

Supporting the Whole Family

At Hopscotch, we believe supporting children means supporting the whole family.

Alongside our core nursery provision, we are developing a programme of family-focused activity at The Ashcroft, in partnership with The Natal Bean. This includes parent workshops, informal drop-ins, learning sessions, and opportunities for families to connect with trusted professionals.

The programme is designed to strengthen parental confidence, support wellbeing, and help families feel more connected during the early years. It includes activities created specifically for Hopscotch families, as well as wider pilot initiatives developed with external organisations. As it grows, our focus remains on offering supportive, evidence-informed experiences that complement the care your child receives in the nursery.
