My experience with this nursery has been very helpful to my grandson and myself. Helping my grandson to settle down after most mornings of him getting upset and not wanting to stay , they help to distract him and help calm him down on my leaving. Then inform us with up to date details of him settled down and how he gets involved with activities. Many thanks to all at steps nursery.

My daughter who is currently 3 years old has been attending early steps since she was 6 months old. She's progressed from the baby room through little crawlers and tremendous twos into pre-school so we've now experienced all on offer. Having also had three other older children who have attended other nurseries I feel I can confidently recommend this provider to others. The staffs positive and proactive culture is what really stand out with a blatantly obvious wealth of experience and genuine interest in your child's education, welfare and life experience and this shines through at all levels from management down to grass routes including even the cleaning staff (if you're the last to pick up like I am that is).

Great nursery with great staff. Lots of activities. My granddaughter has lots of fun while learning, and amazes us with her numbers, singing and actions. She also loves the outside play time when she can get her wellies on. She is very independent and has even been trying the potty there.

Great staff and lovely facilities. I feel at ease leaving my little boy at nursery, knowing he is in excellent hands. They have supported him with all sorts (including fussy eating and toilet training), keeping us in the loop and listening to our concerns at every step.

I've had my children in this nursery for the last 7 years. They are amazing, all of my 3 kids have loved going and have been/are excited for their nursery days. The manager goes above and beyond, always helpful and trying to do her best for her children, their families, and her staff. The staff are all great with the kids, and my children have always bonded really well with their primary carer.

Early Steps is a warm and welcoming nursery. My daughter attended from age 1 until she started school, and settled so well, she still talks about her time there now! Her little brother now attends, he took a lot more settling in, but the staff were amazing with him, sending me updates to keep me reassured that he was fine. He now goes into his room happily and has the best time. The app is updated with learning plans so we know what he has been doing. I would not hesitate to recommend Early Steps Nursery. It's a lovely place and my son has plenty of things to entertain him throughout the day.

Excellent nursery - wouldn't use anywhere else. They have looked after both of my children and my youngest is currently really enjoying his time there. It has brought on his development in many ways; his eating habits, teeth brushing, social development and general learning. The staff are all really friendly and go above and beyond to ensure the children are happy, safe and stimulated. I feel reassured knowing my child is left in safe hands here. Can't fault it in any way.

A fantastic nursery, where my child feels extremely cared for. Receive daily feedback from support staff who are also always on board when trying to help develop your little one whether it's toilet training or dietary requirements. Couldn't have chosen a better nursery to attend.

Our daughter has been attending and loving Early Steps since she was 9 months old. The staff create a nurturing home away from home, which has seen our daughter thrive in the last 20 months. Observations and updates are always prompt and thorough and staff are incredibly approachable should we have any questions, comments or concerns.

My child has been going here for over a year now and has come on leaps and bounds. I was so before to leave my child in a place where I didn't know anyone but step put me at ease instantly. The staff are all so friendly and welcoming. They will go above and beyond to make sure you and your child are happy.

My daughter has been attending Early Steps for 20 hours a week since just before her 1st Birthday, and I honestly wouldn't pick any other nursery provider. As a first time mum I was nervous about leaving her in a new environment, but the staff at Early Steps were so caring, supportive and reassuring, and they took time to learn her schedule to make the transition as easy as possible. Very quickly my daughter created strong bonds with the staff and other children, and we could see how much she enjoyed being there because she didn't want to leave! After being at Early Steps over a year, she has some great friends, she's constantly learning something new and she loves to tell us what she's done at nursery. All of the staff are so welcoming and you can see that they genuinely care for the children they look after. I'd recommend Early Steps to anyone.

My little one has been going to STEP since he was 11 months, now nearly 4. He's loved going and all the staff have always been so caring towards him. He's learnt so much in the time he's been there, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Staff are so welcoming and supportive of children, any siblings at drop off, and parents. There is fantastic communication within the team and with families. The children grow like a family, learning to support and praise one another with such calm, nurturing and positive role models within the nursery staff. They have a lot of fun and growing confidence every single day. Both our small people have enjoyed their time at nursery so much that we've stayed on even though we're no longer based nearby. Well done and thank you to everyone who who works here.

Our daughter has been going to this nursery since she's six months old and now she's nearly three. We have had the most amazing experience with every single staff, and our child comes home every day with big smiles on her face. She's been telling us (and showing) how much she's been learning at nursery, from playing, social skills, movement to logic and maths and music! The activity plans are well thought out and varied on a daily basis, giving every children a wonderful experience and development gain in all aspects. I believe our daughter will be well ready for school before she's four and this is all thanks to Early Steps!

Our boy has been attending for arising two years ands he really loves it. All the staff are great with the kids and accommodating for any additional requests. He likes to talk about the things he's been doing there and who he played with.

I love this nursery, my son attends two full days. I feel it's secure and a safe place. The staff are wonderful, any issues staff are respectful, responsible and attentive and they always have a smile on their face. There is outside space, lots of equipment, healthy meals. I wouldn't send my child anywhere else.

Amazing nursery, super friendly staff and my son loves his time there and has come on greatly with his social skills and learning. Very happy with his progress and can't wait to see how he gets on next year!

My daughter has attended nursery since she was 9 months old and I honestly couldn't recommend Early Steps enough. Every parent always feels nervous leaving their child to attend a setting, but from the very beginning at her show around before she'd even started there I knew we had made the right choice. The staff have always made us feel heard and supported as parents, our little girl skips in there every morning and never wants to leave - she has so much fun! She has thrived and gone from strength to strength as she has progressed through the rooms. I couldn't imagine now having sent her anywhere else!
