Our little one has been attending nursery here since she was two. She will be going to school in September. She has been happy to go every single day. She is always excited to go in and see the staff who are brilliant with her. And see all of her friends. I love the huge outdoor play are and so does
she! She come home excited to tell me all about her adventures. The nursery have supported us through our journey as foster carers and we couldn't of done it without them. I know our little one will miss it all when she moves to big school in September. But she will be going as such a confident and eloquent little girl. Thanks to the nursery and the great staff.
Reply from Moorevilla Team, Manager at Moorevilla NurseryThank you so much for your review, it really does mean a lot to us. We are so happy that she enjoys coming to nursery.

Can't rate the nursery enough, the staff go above and beyond and are so caring towards all children.
My child has started to settle into nursery after not being there long due to the kindness and care they've shown both of us, they're always doing something fun day to day and outdoor play is a firm
favourite!
If ever I have any questions or just want to check in on how my child is doing they are just a phone call or message away and they keep the app updated throughout the day for me to see what my child has been up to or eaten.
My child has come on leaps and bounds since attending and I feel at ease leaving him in their care as I know it's a home from home environment and our routine is followed.
Having worked in nursery settings I was so unsure about whether to send my child or not but as soon as I visited Little Thornton there was no question!
Can't thank them enough for everything they do!!
Reply from Angela Heatley, Manager at MiChild Little ThorntonWe are all so happy that your little boy has settled and that you are happy too. It is incredibly important to us that you both have had a high quality experience and continue to do so. It's lovely to hear that he has come on leaps and bounds and that he loves our outdoors, this review truly reflects Little Thornton Nursery. Thank you from our Team.

The staff are so lovely and caring , my child personally feels completely safe when at nursery, he has been exposed to new foods he has never eaten before so on a food note I definitely can not complain. Overall the nursery as a whole is my definition of a safe environment and the staff are the ones
that make that possible.

My daughter previously attended Stepping Stones a few years ago and now my son does, and I've noticed a hugely positive difference in how it's operated and the changes that have been introduced. It's a warm, caring and nurturing environment for my son and he's really enjoyed the past few months since
he's started. I appreciate how much thought they've put into supporting his development, providing healthy, varied meals and improving the facilities and equipment. It's wonderful to receive updates on his progress and regular observations, so I'm reassured that he's being well looked after. All of the team are lovely and considerate. They have really welcomed him and helped him settle into nursery life. He always has a huge smile on his face, loves the food and joining in with all the fun activities they do. It really puts my mind at ease that he's in safe hands and loves being at nursery so much!

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 7 months old, she is 3 now. The nursery manager has changed since she first started attending this setting and Charlotte has brought in a lot of positive changes, lots of improvements, she is very professional and any concerns raised are always
listened to. The nursery has recently gone through refurbishment and was redecorated.
My daughter loves going to nursery every single day, it feels a safe and secure place with lots of different activities. She has made very good friends with other children and I feel like she is attached to the nursery staff.
With the manager change there have been a few bumpy months as it wasn't the smoothest transition but I cannot fault the nursery management, Charlotte has really turned the place around and we are so glad we chose Stepping Stones all those years ago.

Stepping Stones is a fantastic nursery and the staff are very kind, approachable and enthusiastic. Our kids always come home telling us about the activities they have been doing that day, and we receive regular updates both on the app and at the end of the day. The use of the indoor and outdoor space
is great and I love that they get outside all year round. We feel very confident sending them in knowing they will be safe, happy and learn through a variety of activities.

We absolutely love stepping stones nursery, out son has been attending since 2024, however over the past few months since the renovation works, Charlotte has put her all into transforming the nursery into a homely, fun and relaxing environment. The little touches just make a difference and you can tell
it's been done with love. Our son loves all the staff, which is reciprocated. He is very settled and we have no concerns when he is there, we know he is having the best time

My son has only recently started attending this nursery but seems to be absolutely loving it. Every staff member we've met has been really friendly and helpful even if they're not directly involved in his care. You get a really good update from the staff at the end of the day and updates about what
he's been up to on the famly app throughout the day. He always seems to eat really well at nursery and I'm not surprised because the food sounds delicious! They get the children outside as much as possible which is lovely to see and they do lots of inclusive events and activities. Keep up the good work everyone :)

My daughter has been attending stepping stones for almost 3 years and we couldn't be happier. She absolutely thrives there and loves all the staff members.
They are so supportive and nurturing and I'm so pleased with the care they provide. They have been excellent at dealing with my daughters food
allergy also.
Our son is starting in the spring and I have absolutely faith he will have the same brilliant care and experience.
