Look at that beaming smile!

When events make space for children, it makes a big difference for parents too.

If you're attending an exhibition or conference and see a Stay & Play area - come and say hi - it's probably us!

Designed for parents to spend time with their children in a fun, calm, creative space just a step away from the buzz of the main event, there are toys, sensory activities, entertainment and our trained Purple People to keep an eye on things.

It’s not a crèche but it is a break.
A space to connect.
And a reason to stay longer at an event that understands what families need.

We love hearing children say, “Can we go back tomorrow?”

And we love hearing parents say, “Thank you, this changed the day for us.”

In a week's time we'll be heading to Brighton once again, this time for Develop Brighton.

While parents visit and focus on the conference, we'll be dodging asteroids, doing some target practice, web shooting, designing superhero masks, creating planets, building lairs and flexing all of our superhero skills!

We can't wait to meet your children!

If you're booked in, let us know you are coming!

Can you believe and trust in childcare at an event?

When you hand over your little one, it has to feel right. Safe. Nurturing.

'Initially' getting to know each other.

A great ice breaker for little hands, creating some fabulous artwork and letting the children get to know our team and settle in.

This activity was at PCS Union Conference recently in Brighton.

Our favourite part is always a child's delight in presenting their masterpieces to their parents and explaining how they made them!

Do you feel confident taking your child to public events?

How about to family-friendly exhibitions?

We want the answer to be yes.

That’s why we not only provide award-winning childcare services, but we also train event teams to deliver the same standard of care so their events and teams are

✔️ Safeguarding-ready
✔️ Able to respond calmly and kindly, no matter what arises

“I learnt more about feelings and self-regulation in yesterday’s training than in my entire career so far – and I’ve already used it effectively.”

When you attend an event that’s partnered with Nipperbout or trained by us, you can be confident that your children are in safe, trusted hands. Because you deserve to focus on and enjoy the event, worry-free.

“We wouldn’t run a major event without them.”

That’s what Sammy Connell and the team at NASUWT say about partnering with Nipperbout, after 20+ years of supporting their events.

Because we don't just provide childcare.

We:
✅ Support working parents
✅ Reduce stress
✅ Enable equality
✅ Increase attendance
✅ Create peace of mind

If the next event you're attending doesn’t include childcare, ask why, and tell them about us!

We make it easy. We make it joyful. And we’d love to help!

It’s all happening in Cannes - come and join us in the Cannes Lions Festival crèche to build sandcastles!

Ever wondered what an event crèche actually looks like?

How to find it?

What's included?

At Shoptalk Europe Fira Barcelona we were able to create a safe and colourful space where children could play, explore, and relax while while their parents attended the event stress-free.

✅ Right near registration – no long walks
✅ Bright, natural light and even some outdoor space!
✅ Secure and contained – so you can relax knowing your child is safe
✅ Packed with toys, crafts, and activities to keep little ones happy
✅ Run by our fully DBS-checked team of childcare professionals

Shoptalk knows how hard it can be to juggle parenting and a professional life - kudos to them for offering this free of charge to all attendees

Choose play - everyday!

Today is UNICEF International Day of Play!

At Nipperbout, we know that play is essential for children’s growth and development.

From exploring new worlds to building connections with friends to exploring, getting messy or trying something new, every moment spent playing shapes their future.

We’re proud to provide a safe and creative space where children can let their imaginations run wild while their parents engage with events... and we count ourselves very lucky to be able to do so!

What are you up to today? Can you inject a little power of play?

What does it take to do childcare properly at events?

We don’t just say we’re the UK’s leading provider of mobile crèches and event childcare — we genuinely are.

✅ Ability to care for one child alone or 200+ children at a time, from babies to 17-year-olds
✅ £10M public & employers’ liability, plus £1M professional indemnity — including cover for abuse allegations (rare but essential)
✅ Full compliance with UK law: notifying local authorities and obtaining written exemptions when needed
✅ Proud to welcome Ofsted with up to four inspections a year
✅ High-quality equipment and age-appropriate activities as standard that wow both parents and children
✅ Comprehensive RAMS and safeguarding procedures for everything we do
✅ Full event integration: liaising with venues, catering, signage and access, so organisers don’t have to
✅ Post-event feedback reports that improve services and often reduce costs
✅ Highly trained, fully briefed Purple People who understand and know how to handle the event world - because even the most experienced childcare professionals can find the temporary events world overwhelming.

This is what it takes to do childcare properly at events. This is what Nipperbout does, every single time.

If you’re planning an event where families are welcome please get in touch.

Once part of the Nipperbout family, always part of the Nipperbout family!

These two incredible young people just graduated from their final crèche.

One of them has been with us for 12 years of play, creativity, confidence and connection and is rather adamant that, like Freya, Peter and countless others... she'll return to Nipperbout as a Purple Person... and we can't wait!
