Who We Are

Hippo Staffing Solutions was created by people who knew things could be done better. After years of working in care, recruitment and training, we saw the same problem again and again. Shifts being filled, but standards slipping. That’s not good enough.

We believe that needing support at short notice should never mean compromising on care. Your residents and service users deserve consistency, professionalism and compassion, every single day.

So we built Hippo differently. Every professional we send is trained and competency-checked in-house. We know they’re ready, because we’ve prepared them ourselves.

What we've done.

We’re a small team, but we’re growing quickly, and we’re proud of the standard we’re building.

In a short space of time, we’ve recruited, nurtured and trained nearly 200 staff, filled 99% of requested shifts, achieved a 100% first-time compliance pass rate across all audits, and earned a 5-star Google rating from the services and professionals we support.

For us, growth only matters if standards grow with it, and that drives us to keep reaching even higher.
