Tip Top Day Nursery is owned and managed by sisters-in-law Kate and Lisa Tipper.

Our Early Years Practitioners are qualified to at least Level 2, with most at Level 3 or above, including two at Level 6. Staff are expected to maintain current Food Hygiene certificates and have Child Protection/Safeguarding and First Aid qualifications.

Only staff who have been properly vetted and have either an Enhanced Criminal Record Bureau Disclosure or a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check are permitted to have sole charge of the children.
