First Steps Ashton Court have a large and bright nursery with purpose-designed rooms for each age group. They offer a real personal touch and like to think of their nursery as a big family!
They are big on happy children. They have areas for growing food (and eating it), regular visits to local care homes and a focus on taking care of each other and the world.
The nursery are silver eco schools accredited, a programme that sees children lead the way in making little changes that deliver big environmental differences.
They are big on safety which is why ALL their staff are paediatric first aid trained. They also have an app called ParentZone which parents/carers can stay informed on how their little ones are doing at nursery, with photos of their day, meals eaten and even toilet training progress.
They use 5 Little Pioneers to help share their core values with children, from making their own decisions to making a difference in the world.
At Ashton Court, they enjoy trying out yoga! They make regular trips to the Forest School, where they encourage their children to enjoy nature and play in a woodland environment. The children also learn how to handle (appropriate) risk, solve problems on their own and work cooperatively with others.

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.

I'm a single mum who works full-time so he attends five days a week and it can be hard to leave your child in someone else's care for all that time without feeling guilty.
But he is excited to go every day and always comes out happy. He has great relationships with the staff and its clear they care about him too.
Communication is good and I feel like I still know all about his day despite not being there physically.
I feel comfortable to talk to any member of staff about any quibbles and they go over and above to make sure I'm happy with the care.
I'd recommend Ashton Court to anyone. Fantastic!

I am extremely happy with the care and support my daughter receives from Ashton Court First Steps Childrens Nursery. The staff within her room go above and beyond when caring for her additional (CP) needs adapting activities and following her occupational therapist plan to help develop her fine motor skills. My daughter loves nursery and happily talks about nursery life at home.
My daughter has happily attended the nursery and I feel it has been a home away from home. It has been a difficult few months, mainly for parents, not being able to take young children to the room etc. Although the contact via the app makes up for this and I appreciate the photos which I can view...
My daughter has happily attended the nursery and I feel it has been a home away from home. It has been a difficult few months, mainly for parents, not being able to take young children to the room etc. Although the contact via the app makes up for this and I appreciate the photos which I can view over the course of the day - it allows me to feel part of her day. My daughter seems to enjoy nursery, being with other children and is doing well.

We have tried a few nurseries within Wolverhampton and this was the one that really made my son feel special, comfortable and at ease. His nursery nurse is absolutely amazing. Makes my son want to come to nursery and all the staff are really friendly. Management is amazing and they are thoughtful and really polite. If I could turn back time, this is the nursery I would have wanted to go to myself.
Our child has been attending for almost 1 and a half years. Care has always been outstanding. She really enjoys attending and has flourished in the environment.

The nursery and administrative staff are very professional, welcoming and take a genuine interest in the children. The handover at the end of the day is really useful and a great way to connect home and nursery life. The staff are always positively inquisitive of what the children do at home to enrich their nursery experience. My children only started in September and every time we pull up they have huge smiles and get excited knowing where they are.
The staff are very professional, friendly and welcoming. They engage exceptionally well with the children, are excellent communicators and educators.

The care and attention given to each child is wonderful. First impressions are of a caring family unit - and the more I see, the more that this comes through. I feel even more reassured knowing how many years of experience the staff have between them. Cannot rate this facility highly enough.

The staff are very professional in offering a nurturing and educational environment for our little ones' development. The homely diet and decor contribute to an easy transition from home to the nursery. So much so that our little one gets excited every morning we leave the house.

I am very pleased with this nursery. Staff is great, my daughter is always very happy and enthusiastic about going to the nursery and seems to have an amazing time. Always doing something nice, smiling, happy and learning something. All staff has been really nice to us and to my daughter. I love that we are being involved in their activities and tasks and I love the fact that we can keep track on what they are doing. It's amazing to know what they are doing while not with my kid and I love to see her always learning, doing new things and having the beautiful things she does at the nursery.
The care our son has received has been outstanding and the staff and team couldn't do more for him, it's like he's one of the family and from quite a shy child he is now very sociable and speaking and interacting very well. Can't recommend this nursery highly enough.
