Millennium First Steps Nursery

We've been sending our daughter who was 7 months old when she started, and we're very happy with the nursery. Her settling in was difficult and took time, which was very hard for us first-time parents, but her key person handled it very well with confidence and all the staff members were supportive.

Outdoor space may be on the more compact side and its building may be a bit old, but has plenty of room inside for children to explore and play with various kinds of toys. The range of activities available in baby room (inside and outdoor) is great. We see our daughter developing and thriving, both physically and socially, probably at a faster pace than if she stayed at home.

Now at 10 months she goes in happily (most days) and it's a real pleasure to pick her up and get feedback for the day on how she was and what she did. We're very grateful for all the effort and affection by the staff members and we won't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone - especially with its very competitive fees and proximity to the station.

We already have one child at First Steps and are very happy with her care, but have recently started our second child there. She was 11 months when she started, now a year old. We have been amazed at how quickly she has settled in. Our older daughter was much older when she started so we didn't know what to expect, but it has been a rapid transition, during which we have felt very comfortable and supported, and have had no doubt about the care she has received. We feel entirely comfortable leaving her with the team who have made an effort to get to know her and seem very gentle/affectionate. Particularly impressed with room leadership. Teething difficulties (adjusting to routine) handled well. Very impressed. Our daughter is happy, stimulated and relaxed there. All very good.
