Stepping Stones Day Nursery and Nursery School is situated in a purpose built site of just over half an acre. It including a large well equipped outside play area boasting an adventure playground, mud kitchen, sound garden, climbing frames, sand and water area, cars, bicycles and lots more!
We also have a nature garden, with wild flowers and bug hotels! The children have access to the outside areas when they like with our free-flow system.
We are Ofsted registered (rated GOOD in all areas) and can cater for 75 children from 0-12 years old.
We are open 7.30am – 6pm Monday to Friday all year round (excluding Bank holidays).
An effective key person system ensures your child receives individual care and attention. Activities are tailored to your child based on their interests and developmental stage. Parental input is highly encouraged as by working together as partners we can provide the best early learning experience for your child.
We use Tapestry, an online learning journey, which is available to view your child's progress, next steps and photographs. Feel free to contribute to this and let us know what's been happening outside of work such as holidays and special interests.
We offer all year wraparound childcare with a before and after school club. We also offer a drop off and pick up service for local, and not so local,schools. Our HOLIDAY CLUB operates throughout the school holidays with lots of great activities planned for the children who will enjoy a small staff to child ratio (as opposed to some holiday schemes where children can become a face in the crowd)
Stepping Stones is registered with the National Day Nurseries Association.
