SQLBits 2024 brings not only a wealth of knowledge and networking opportunities for professionals but also a thoughtful addition for attendees with families. Understanding the needs of parents, we have partnered with Nipperbout, a trusted childcare service that goes beyond being a traditional creche. Nipperbout is set to transform the SQLBits experience for parents by offering exciting and educational entertainment for children aged 0-17.
Nipperbout is not your average crèche; it is a comprehensive solution that combines safety, education, and entertainment for children, allowing parents to fully immerse themselves in the event without worrying about their little ones. The service is designed to cater to the needs of children of all ages, ensuring a positive and engaging experience for each attendee.
Credentials & Safety:
Parents can rest assured knowing that Nipperbout is a registered Ofsted supplier. The company prioritises the safety and well-being of every child, adhering to strict standards set by the Office for Standards in Education, Children’s Services, and Skills (Ofsted). This registration ensures that the creche service meets the highest quality and safety standards.
When it comes to the safety of children, Nipperbout takes no shortcuts. All employees and on-site suppliers undergo rigorous Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance, ensuring that only individuals with clean records are entrusted with the care of the young attendees. Moreover, Nipperbout is committed to ongoing compliance by requiring registration with the annual DBS update service, further reinforcing their commitment to safety.
Nipperbout doesn’t just stop at personnel; even their operational crew adheres to high standards. The company holds CSCS Certification Standards for its operational crew, ensuring that everyone involved in the creche service is well-equipped and qualified to handle any situation that may arise during the event. This commitment to operational excellence further solidifies Nipperbout’s reputation as a reliable and professional creche service provider.
The safety of the physical environment is of paramount importance to Nipperbout. All electrical items used in their services are regularly subjected to Portable Appliance Testing (PAT). This rigorous testing ensures that every electrical device is in proper working condition, minimising any potential risks associated with electrical equipment.
Quote from a parent last year who optimised use of the creche:
Text from Mikey’s blog ‘The SQLBits 2023 Experience’
“SQLBits really outdid themselves this year by offering a crèche for parents who needed childcare. I have to say, this was a game-changer for me and my partner Magda. It was amazing to be able to focus on our roles at the event without having to worry about our child’s wellbeing.
Mikey Bronowski
What was truly unique about this was that the crèche was available for the entire duration of the conference, including precon days. I’ve never encountered such a service at any other conference before, and I’m so glad that SQLBits decided to carry on with it.
Not only did it make our lives easier, but our child also had a great time. They got to enjoy rainy walks around the venue and even made a wooden dragon as a craft project! And they weren’t the only ones – there were a couple of other children in the crèche as well, so they had company and didn’t feel lonely.
Overall, I’m so grateful for the crèche service at SQLBits. It really made a huge difference and allowed us to fully enjoy the conference without any worries.”
In choosing Nipperbout as the creche service provider for SQLBits 2024, we have created a family-friendly atmosphere that we wish all conferences in the future will aim to adopt. Parents can confidently participate in the event, knowing that their children are in the capable hands of a trustworthy and safety-conscious childcare service. Nipperbout’s commitment to excellence, education, and entertainment makes it a valuable addition to the SQLBits experience, transforming it into an inclusive event for professionals with families.
