My two boys have attended Stepping Stones since they were babies and are now in the after school club. The staff are amazing and certainly bring the best out of the children. I would recommend Stepping Stones to any parent out there who is looking for a fantastic nursery!

My daughter has been here for a few weeks now and the staff are fantastic with her! She's learning so many new things and is coming out of her shell so much. This is her first nursery and she is so well looked after. My eldest daughter went here years ago and it was the same fantastic experience for
her as it is for my little one. Very happy with the care and attention my daughter receives. One happy mum and one happy little lady - 5*.

The staff are very friendly and make the child feel very comfortable within the nursery. This helps them to adjust to different situations within the environment they are in.
I can see a major improvement in my child's development and am very happy with the nursery.
They have been very patient.

My children are very happy at the nursery and are cared for by friendly staff. The nursery are flexible in their approach which is really helpful to working parents. Keyworkers keep parents well informed with general daily events and the nursery, as a whole, provides a safe and happy environment for
my children.

My little one loves coming to nursery he gets so excited at home when I say we are off to nursery, he knows all the staff members names and recognizes them all even at home.
You always get a good handover on pick up and the girls aren't afraid to share concerns which I like.
You can tell there is
a lot of work happening at the moment but the children are left undisturbed by this and the nursery is looking better. The nursery management does try hard to be flexible which as working parents is a must for us!
My child eats better then me, no chicken nuggets and chips more like Morrocan style pork with couscous, my little boy can be a big eater and if he wants more they always give him a second dinner if needed :)

My little boy has been at the nursery for a few months now, he absolutely loves it and I highly recommend here!
The staff are all lovely and you can tell how caring they are. Communication is also brilliant, I'm always kept up to date with things and given plenty of notice for any events that are
held. Honestly cant recommend this nursery enough.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.954)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.954) out of 10 for Child 1st (Stoke) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.954 for Child 1st (Stoke) is calculated as follows: ( (309 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 324 Ratings = 4.954

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Child 1st (Stoke) is based on 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 112 number of registered child places is 22.4, which has been reached with 27 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
