My son is now in the bigger baby room and his transition was as smooth as when he first started. He remains happy and settled and that's the most important thing for us. He absolutely loves going to nursery!

I would highly recommend my sons nursery. Great staff and great environment, it's difficult to get him to leave at the end of the day! Their summer fun day is also fantastic, I'm not sure who had more fun him or me!

Review from Jason (Father of Child) published on 26 April 2016 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son has been at the nursery for the past 11 months (since 8 months old) and his and our experiences so far have been fantastic. The staff at Positive Steps are passionate about what they do and this is clearly reflected in how our son and also his fellow classmates thoroughly enjoy their day at
nursery. So much so that there days that he doesn't want to leave. We have a well rounded, sociable, gregarious and fun loving child, primarily because of the way that he has treated at nursery. The staff are great characters, wonderfully engaging and dedicated, they are great to be in the company of and make us feel very at ease. As parents we have felt very comfortable raising any concerns that we may have with the confidence (both at management and carer level) that we know that we have been listened to and that mutually agreed plans are acted upon. I cannot recommend our nursery more highly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our son is always really happy to come to nursery and goes into the baby room with a smile. The staff have always been brilliant with him at drop off and pick up, making the transition between mummy and nursery smooth and stress free. During the day he eats and sleeps well and has made some fabulous
friends already. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

My child loves coming to nursery. He has settled quickly with the help of the staff. There are a lot of different activities and we always get reports on what he has enjoyed playing with which gives ideas for home. He loves jo jingles! We are reassured that he is eating well and is well cared for when
he's home. We could not be happier.

Review from A B (Mother of Child) published on 19 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my children have attended this nursery from when I returned to work after mat leave. Both were a year old, I have been at the nursery 3 days a week until they started/start school. Returning to work is a BIG deal for any mother- to leave their most precious gift in the care of someone else, but
from show round to settle sessions was confident my children would have fun and learn in a safe and secure surroundings (among qualified professionals who care).

The nursery is lovely. Staff in pre-school are so friendly and helpful. My daughter loves it there and learns a lot. As a parent, I would want to make sure my daughter is happy and in a secure environment. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for an outstanding environment in Maidenhead.

Positive Steps Children's Day Nursery is really a fantastic nursery that helps our daughter learn a lot and provides a warm positive environment. The staff is friendly and supportive of the individual child needs but the rooms are quiet small and there is no direct access to the outside space.

Both of our children attend nursery (across 1-3) They both are looked after by extremely caring and friendly people and come home having had an extremely engaging and fun day. Both try new things every week and it is easy to see how much they have developed in their time at the nursery.
