Stonehouse nursery was once an old farm house building but is now renovated into a fully functional childcare facility. Lots of special remnants remain in their outdoor space like an original farm tractor and their 2 pet chickens who roam through the gardens whilst they play.

Stonehouse nursery was once an old farm house building but is now renovated into a fully functional childcare facility. Lots of special remnants remain in their outdoor space like an original farm tractor and their 2 pet chickens who roam through the gardens whilst they play.
They have 5 Little Pioneers who help share their core values with the children such as encouraging them to be independent to making a difference in the world. They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained.
They are big on happy children so they have areas for growing food (and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and take care of each other and the world. Their ParentZone app keeps mums and dads informed about life at nursery including photos from their day, assessments, meals eaten and even toilet training progress.
The nursery holds the green flag status in the prestigious Green Flag Eco-schools programme which is an internationally recognised award for excellence in environmental action and learning.
They love healthy eating at Stonehouse and they've partnered with Startwell, an exciting new programme being rolled out across Birmingham to encourage healthy, nutritious meals for children.

About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 52 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 52 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 21.9 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

My daughter has been coming to nursery since she was 9 months old. The staff have always been supportive. They listen to what I have to say and were understanding when she had an allergy as a baby (3 years old now). I like the way that nursery has been refurbished and think there are some good new resources for child-led learning. Nursery is always accommodating and supportive. I am glad I chose this nursery and she is making good friendships and has good relationships with staff.

In particular, since the refurbishment, we are much more pleased with the facilities and cleanliness.
For us, as parents, the biggest appeal has been the staff and excellent management, they have been fantastic and their communication has been second to none!
The staff go out of their way to support my child's development, learning and wellbeing. He enjoys going to nursery and loves telling me about what he has been up to. The nursery looks amazing after the refit.

New improvements to the nursery have made the space a lot brighter and engaging. My child is always excited to attend which fills me with confidence. All staff are always very welcoming and informative at handover.

Our child is so happy at this nursery, we trust the practitioners and love hearing all about our child's day on the way home. The revamp looks great and we are sad that we are leaving (relocation).

The staff are really nice and friendly. My son is always looking forward to going to nursery. Really pleased with the new decor and renovations at the nursery. It is more bright now. The management still needs to improve in terms of communication but overall it is a good nursery.

Wonderful nursery and preschool, which our daughter has loved and enjoyed greatly. All staff are lovely and easy to speak to. We sent our son here before, and he loved it too.

Fantastic nursery and wonderful staff. My daughter has developed so much since starting here, especially with her speech. When she started November 2022 she only said a few words but now she is the right chatterbox and that’s thanks to this nursery.

Little Pioneers Stonehouse is a great nursery. After we decided to take my son from the previous nursery we were worried about how he would adapt to the new place but it was quick and he loves this nursery. Friendly employees, who respond to children’s needs.

Honestly couldn’t ask for a better experience for our daughter. All the staff are kind, friendly and engaging. They all seem passionate about the children and their roles. The nursery itself is in a lovely building with good facilities and plenty to stimulate the children. She had learnt so much through the activities she does and has such a great foundation now to build on when she goes to school. My daughter especially loves the food!
It's a good place overall. Slightly expensive compared to other mid-range nurseries but has better care. But a couple of times, I noticed loose nappies remaining unchanged almost till we did the pickup in the evening, which caused rashes and itchiness making my kid all irritated in the evening and...
It's a good place overall. Slightly expensive compared to other mid-range nurseries but has better care. But a couple of times, I noticed loose nappies remaining unchanged almost till we did the pickup in the evening, which caused rashes and itchiness making my kid all irritated in the evening and night unable to sleep well. It was sorted after I mentioned it, so satisfied. Understandable with shortages of staff in the industry overall.

Staff are friendly, helpful, caring and provide great activities and lots of learning for my daughter. My daughter settled in well thanks to the great team. I trust the whole team and feel confident every day my daughter attends.
My experience has been great. The staff are very friendly and hands-on. I like how I'm kept up to date on the app about his meals and activities and his development.

Staff are very caring, always there for support, and advice and to work alongside you helping in any areas you're working towards. They actually care about the children and it's more than just a job. The manager is amazing and always there to help in any way possible. The staff are also there to help in any way possible. The care worker is also amazing and offers help, advice and support for the paten too. Great nursery and amazing staff.
The staff at First Steps are really welcoming and friendly. I find it easy to talk to my son's key workers and get regular updates. Children appear happy in drop-off/pick-up. Always asked who is at the door to maintain the safety of the children. No concerns.
