"Our 2 children have been going to Stepping Stones for a long time. They've both been through the nursery and now we use them for after school club. They both love all the staff and activities they provide. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Really easy to drop off and collect as right next to the car park".

"We have been sending our son to the baby room at Stepping Stones for the past 5 months and he absolutely loves it - he runs in everyday, always comes home tired from all the different activities they have been doing and the staff are all lovely - would highly recommend!"

"Sending my girls to Stepping Stones has been one of my best decisions. Every member of staff are professional and genuinely friendly. There’s nothing better than to know that you have left your child in good hands. My daughter was having speech issues when she started, which was a big concern for me. I informed the staff and they actually encouraged her speech and before I could even have a doctor appointment, my daughter did not need it anymore. I definitely have and would recommend them to anyone.  They put a lot of effort into making sure my child is not only cared for, but is learning as much as possible during her time there. And she doesn’t ever want to miss a day!Thank you Stepping Stones!"

"I have used stepping stones for both my son and daughter! Over the past 13 years. My son often cries as he doesn’t want to leave! The staff have been very supportive to both myself and my son through some difficult times! Thank you!"

"We always leave our daughter with Stepping Stones staff with all our confidence that she is going to have an active and exciting day. There isn't one day she hasn't been keen on going to nursery and she loves being there. The Staff are all very warm and friendly and always helpful and most importantly the always give me peace of mind that she is well looked after.

Food is cooked on site which is a big plus. Our daughter eats everything every day! Thank you all at Stepping Stones".

"Yvonne and James - Thank you for a fantastic 6 years! The children have loved their time at Stepping Stones!"

“I just wanted to take this opportunity to say a really big thank you for all your hard work over the last 4 1/2 years looking after one very excitable and bouncy little boy. You were all so welcoming in the baby unit tand settled right in and really looked forward to going to nursery every day. My most sincerest of thanks.”

“Jane – thank you for coming to my rescue when I had one week before I had to start work and my previous childcare let me down! You run a very well organised nursery.”

Thank you for everything you have done for Thomas and Alex over the years! They have had a fantastic time at Stepping Stones and it's an end of an era for all of us...

​To James - I will really miss you and nursery it was so fun with you. Thank you for the slash pad that was the best ever. It was so so fun. Love Thomas.

“I feel safe in the knowledge that my son receives a high standard of care”.

“I honestly do not know what I would have done if I had not sent my son with Stepping Stones!”

“3-5 room – you have done so much to teach my son the alphabet and numbers. Learning to read and write, and generally get him ready for the next big adventure in his life – school.”

“Our son is now 9 years old and really enjoys the Holiday Club that he attends. He is kept very busy with all the many activities – craft or cookery, a personal favourite, or outdoor games.”

“We will miss you and take with us (and hopefully leave behind) the fondest of memories.

‘From the outset Stepping Stones Nursery had a very open welcoming approach and a can-do attitude to supporting our disabled child in their foundation/pre-school year. Our little girl has been safe, well cared for and very happy here. (The Nursery have worked well with visiting professionals including regular visits from the local authorities eg the Sensory Impairment team. Thank you – we are very grateful”

“Thank you for looking after me for 3 1/2 years and for teaching me all the clever things. I have had so much fun and will miss you lots. Look out for me in my new school uniform when I come to pick up and drop off my little brother…… cos i’m off to be a ‘schooley’! Love from Elliott.”

“Thank you VERY MUCH! for looking after me the past few years. I loved being at Stepping Stones and will miss you all lots! Lyla (& Mum).”

I just wanted to say a big thank you from both Scott and myself for being such an integral and important part of our son's life... If I ever have any more children please be assured I will be seeking your excellent child care assistance.

Thank you so much for being the first safe and stable STEPPING STONE in Thomas’s education. We appreciate your hard work and dedication. When we asked Thomas what he will most miss he answered “Sarah’s Tuna pasta!” We know he will miss you all!

Thank you all for a lovely time! Lillie has spent an amazing year with you and she was so happy to be here.

To all the staff, just to say “THANK YOU” for looking after our daughter and making her so happy. Lots of Love Monika and Phil.

We just wanted to say a BIG thank you for making Erin’s pre-school years so enjoyable. She has loved coming to nursery since she started (age 9 months!). You have all been wonderful. Erin will miss Stepping Stones but thanks to all your hard work she is well prepared to start School. Best Wishes for the future Erin, Vanessa and Grahame.

Dear Jane, James and the entire Stepping Stones Team – Thank you so much for taking great care of our children over the past eight years. During this time the nursery has been an integral part of their (and our) lives. The Team has always been friendly, warm, caring, welcoming and professional and both Delilah + Alfie have always enjoyed attending. As parents we have always enjoyed complete faith and trust in the care + service provided. You have always been 100% reliable and, without fail, always been able to help us out of tricky situations or unexpected emergencies. Thanks again from the Zollo Family. We will miss Stepping Stones.

Absolutely brilliant, when my 2 year old started here in September 2014, he could barely talk and was incredibly shy. Now, because of the amazing staff here, he’s really come out of his shell and doesn’t stop talking. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

Lovely nursery, great staff and my son loves being there.

Big Thank You for looking after Charlotte, bit sad it's the end of an era. Charlotte has enjoyed her time here and love the memories of Sports Days and Christmas Plays - Thank you.

We have cherished watching our daughter grow in confidence and ability. Have a wonderful summer!

​"James - Thanks so much for all your hard work in the nursery and making it such a great place for the kids. Really appreciate you and the team being so accommodating especially with Rory's allergies & our diary changes. 

"Our Daughter has clearly enjoyed her time at Stepping Stones and has clearly thrived in this environment - I know she will miss every one of you and is very sad to leave!"

​We just wanted to say a huge thank you for making Rafes time at nursery so happy and enjoyable. He has developed into a confident and happy little boy who is now ready for the next chapter in his life. We really are so grateful!!

Thank you for the past 3 years! We are so proud of the little lady Eliza has become and that's all thanks to your wonderful staff for guiding Eliza. She has had the best 3 years being at your nursery and I could not have asked for anything better. I will miss dropping her off each morning and I know she will miss all the friends she has made. Your staff are amazing and I personally want to thank you all for making Eliza-Mai the person she is today - we will miss you all. Love Eliza-Mai & family.​

​"To all my friends at Nursery - I was very sad when mummy told me I was leaving Stepping Stones but Mummy and Daddy promised I can visit! So for now thank you for all the fun and excitement I've had since I came to the Nursery. I will miss you all but promise to come and visit soon! Lots of Love Sammy xxxx"
