My little one is constantly happy and clean, the staff are incredibly endearing and supportive. I can't wait to enrol my next baby and hope for the same wonderful experience.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're pleased to hear that your experience with Footsteps Binley Nursery has been such a positive one and that your child is happy and well cared for.
Its useful that they use an app and daily handover so I know how my child day has been. They feed the kids a good variety of food and do lots of different activities. Car park can be busy, but managable.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted to hear that you can see how much our staff care and that the app and daily handovers help you feel connected to your child's day. It's great to know you enjoy the variety of meals and activities we provide.
We've been really happy with Footsteps Nursery so far. Our 11-month-old daughter has settled in well and it's clear she's comfortable and cared for. The staff are friendly, attentive and take the time to understand each child's routine and personality. Communication has been clear and reassuring, and we like the range of activities and focus on development. It feels like a safe, calm environment without being over the top, which is exactly what we were looking for.

They are all so welcoming, polite, happy and the kids love it! I never worry about the care of my children and i love all the extra activities they do such as football and artventures!
Will be so sad when they leave. Would 100% recommend.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear that your children are enjoying their time at the nursery and making the most of activities like football and Artventures. It's great to know our care and environment give parents peace of mind.
It was always daunting the thought of enrolling for a nursery and even more so thinking about how my daughter would cope without me for 7 hours a day.
Where as in reality the nursery do so much with the children. Tonnes of crafts, activities, and even hosting stay and play sessions for the parents to join in the fun.
I can honestly say how inviting the team are and how comfortable my daughter feels here!
Each transition has been seamless as she has moved into different rooms, building such lovely bonds with her key workers and other team members.
I would always recommend Footsteps to anyone looking for a nursery. It can't be an easy job but the girls are always so happy and welcoming!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We completely understand how daunting those first steps into nursery can be, so it means a lot to hear how supported and reassured you've felt. We're delighted that your daughter has settled so well, enjoys all the activities, and feels comfortable and happy with our team.
Since my son has started attending this nursery, he's really come on leaps and bounds. The staff were amazing at helping him settle in. He really struggled to begin with but the extra attention and care provided by the staff made all the difference. He's now excited when I drop him off. He's already learnt so much too and I've seen a huge improvement with his temperament, especially around other children. The app is regularly updated with information and photos throughout the day which is lovely. All the activities are very well thought out and give me ideas to recreate at home. Also special shout out to the food! It's varied, nutritious and clearly delicious with how much he eats! I'm so happy I chose this nursery, my son is in very capable hands.
Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful review. We're absolutely delighted to hear how well your son has settled and the progress he's made since joining us. Supporting children through those early settling-in stages is so important to us, and it means a lot to know our team made a positive difference.
Great nursery. Kids are very happy at this nursery, and the staff actually want to be there, and you can see they enjoy spending time with the children and teaching them. My daughter is very happy here and always tells me she loves the nursery. Very colourful nursery and they cover a range of activities, so my daughter never gets bored. Great management too. Always there to help when needed.

Really pleased with the nursery.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're so pleased to hear that you're happy with our nursery.
Overall my son loves school it's really all down to the amazing teachers they are brilliant. It's very very clean, organised in there for the kids and the food menu is brilliant and very healthy. My son finds it very hard to settle any new place with new people and from the first day I could see he felt safe at this nursery he was settled straight away. I'm very happy with all the updates through the day how my son has done, what he has eaten and daily activities inside and outdoors. His really come alone in such a short amount of time being there. I definitely would recommend this nursery to everyone I know looking for a new nursery.
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We're so glad to hear your son feels safe, settled, and happy here. It's fantastic that you're seeing such positive progress, and we really appreciate your recommendation!
The manager and the team are fantastic! They have a learning methodology that is both effective and insightful. Our 15-month-old loves to go to the nursery which makes us understand she is well treated and developed. Highly recommended.
Very good nursery. Staff are brilliant and nursery very organized. My grandson's key workers are very caring of all the child in their room. I can definitely see my grandson building up his confidence and developing his personality skills.
Thank you for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear your grandson is building confidence and developing his personality skills with us. Our caring key workers strive to create a nurturing environment for all children. Your kind words mean the world to us!
Very impressed the manager and her team were great from the start. Our child has complex care needs all health care plans and risk assessments were completed and sent over before her staff date. The team in the seaside room have been amazing. Our little girl tells us every day how much she loves nursery.
We're so happy to hear about your positive experience with our team! It's wonderful to know that our preparation and care have made a difference for your little girl. Her daily joy at nursery is our greatest reward. Thank you for sharing!
Overall very happy with the entire experience both from our daughter's perspective and ours as parents. Her confidence and learning have come on leaps and bounds since she started at Footsteps and she is 100% more positive about getting in the morning (compared to her previous nursery). The only negative is the cost which I realise is justified by the staff for the facilities etc, however, you do feel with spending so much that there would be more variation and tech use in the activities the children do.
We're delighted to hear about your daughter's fantastic progress at Footsteps! It's wonderful she loves her mornings now. We appreciate your feedback on costs and activities. Rest assured, we're always looking to enhance our programmes. Thanks for sharing your experience!
The nursery has been brilliant for my daughter's development and building her confidence. I love all the staff they are so friendly and reassuring.
