Services Provided by Nipperbout

The créche will be open from 10:00-20:00 all three days of EMF Camp and operated by 9 members of staff.

Up to 40 children can be cared for by Nipperbout at a time, with a maximum of 4 under 2 years old. There will be an effective booking-in system for when the crèche is full which enables the public to return at a specified time.

Nipperbout staff ratios are as follows:

  • Children aged 0 – 23 months = 2 children:1 adult
  • Children aged 2yrs = 3 children: 1 adult
  • Children aged 3yrs and above = 5 children:1 adult.

Please note children who do not attend main stream settings MUST have one to one care and it is advisable to supply a break away room for autistic or ADHD children.

Nipperbout would run a timetable of activities to include sessions of art and craft, face painting, drama, music, circus skill workshops and parachute games within the crèche.

Nipperbout requires up to 4 hours build-up time before an event and will need to carry out their ‘get-in’ the day before the event starts. They will require 2.5 hours to tear down.
