My wife and I have nothing but praise for Stepping Stones. The level of care and development afforded to our son has been first class and instrumental to his development. 5 stars all the way.

We have had a wonderful time at the nursery ever since we started in October of 2019. The staff have all been welcoming and friendly and my daughter has had no problems fitting in. I would really call this a five-star service, would 100% recommend.

Review from Rebecca L (Mother of Child) published on 26 July 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending Stepping Stones since he was around 11 months old while I was studying for a degree. The location of the nursery is really convenient. The facilities the nursery has, with several gardens and plenty of indoor space for play is great.
I have been able to attend regular parent's evening for my child to find out about his progress and his next goals. Having this information has been invaluable and allowed me to work together with him to help achieve development goals at nursery.

My son has needed some support while at nursery and has always received this to the best standard, as have I. My son has loved his time at Stepping Stones and has learnt and grown so much. The staff in Blue room have been absolutely fantastic in helping my son to grow and develop into the clever confident boy he is. I would definitely recommend Stepping Stones to others.

Review from Amy C (Mother of Child) published on 22 July 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been coming to Stepping Stones Day Nursery for 2 years. They have been excellent with her food allergies and were amazing at helping me with her suspected additional needs. She has come so far in the last 2 years and she has gained so much confidence and they helped her with her social skills and helped her bond better with other children. She has eating issues which they managed to get her to overcome and they are the most understanding people.

I definitely made the right choice when choosing Stepping Stones, I'm just sad that my daughter is leaving to start reception as we will both miss coming to this nursery.

Brilliant nursery with great staff. The nursery is full of fun, warmth and ‘true children’ lovers which in my eyes, money can’t by. They go over and beyond to ensure your child is happy.

Both my grandchildren have attended Stepping Stones since 2017 and I've had the pleasure of collecting them from the nursery pretty much every day since. Whenever I collect them, they are both taking part in some wonderful activities. Thank you so much to everyone there and keep up the great work!

Overall Experience

After lots and lots of nursery visits Stepping Stones Day Nursery stood out immediately with its large spacious rooms, friendly welcoming staff, help and support if needed, great food menu, fantastic outdoor spaces, lots of toys and activities. Both myself and my son have loved every second of his time at Stepping Stones and are excited for Sept when he starts his new term also had great help dealing with my entitlement for my funded place. My son comes home every afternoon with a smile on his face and lots to tell about his day. Best nursery in Nottingham!!!

Overall Experience

I want to say how grateful we both are for the care our child has received with Stepping Stones. It's been fantastic, she loves it and we really saw a huge shift in her confidence when she started coming to you full time. She is very well prepared for life at school which is a testament to the hard work your team put in and we had no hesitation in bringing our son to you when we went back to work after maternity leave. Thanks again.

Review from Jadien R (Mother of Child) published on 26 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My two daughters have attended this nursery from 6-8 weeks old! They have been attending here for a couple of years now and I’m still happy with the services and responsibilities provided from the staff. ALL staff members are polite, understanding and friendly. They follow well-structured routines relating to meal times, nappy changes and nap times! They work alongside the parents when asked to by parents this in regard to many things like developing, speaking or even sleeping times/routines! I really recommend this nursery and admit I actually refuse to place my kids anywhere else! I love this place, most of all I love the staff.

Review from Megan H (Mother of Child) published on 21 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

With 3 children, we have had our share of childcare experiences over the years. We've never felt about a facility like we feel about Stepping Stones. Our daughter has been there 7 months and experienced 2 different rooms in that time. We've loved both!

Nursery staff are wonderful with children; they get down to their level, are hands-on and shower kids with hugs/personalized care. Our daughter literally runs into the nursery each morning and usually has to be carried out at the end of the day because she doesn't want to leave. Children cannot fake those emotions - we know she's not only looked after and entertained but well-treated and loved on, as well.

Other notes:
- The facility feels safe. We often leave our stroller parked outside and don't worry about it being stolen.
- There are great outdoor play areas, which are used often.
- Staff ensures children are learning.

- Meals are varied/accommodating.

Stepping Stones is fantastic. We are so sad to leave!

Review from Silvia (Mother of Child) published on 16 October 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Stepping Stones full-time since the age of 8 months. As a single mum working towards a PhD in a foreign country, I found Stepping Stones an invaluable source of support. The staff at the yellow room are fantastic in looking after small babies. You can trust them to look after your little one with care and love. At the age of 1, my daughter moved to the red room, where she developed her social skills greatly. This was a fantastic room with lots of creative activities that she truly enjoyed. At the age of 2, she has now moved to the green room where she is very happy. The staff is very professional and is taking good care of her development. I can see daily improvements in my daughter's behaviour and this is a testament to the great work of the staff. Stepping Stones gave me peace of mind to complete my PhD, knowing that my daughter is well looked after. I have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to other parents and have already done so.

Overall Experience

Stepping Stones is a fantastic nursery, my son started in January 2017 after I visited about 5 nurseries in the area. One of the main reasons I chose Stepping Stones was simply how they concentrate on treating both myself and my son as family, as a single parent they helped me with any questions I had and I am truly grateful to the staff there who are simply the best. My son especially loves the large outdoor area they have where last week they did an obstacle course for Sport Relief.

Overall Experience

My child has been at Stepping Stones for over a year now and I simply cannot express how much care and attention they pay to my daughter. She has come on leaps and bounds since being here and I believe this has been due to their excellent facilities and the teaching they provide. When I first brought her to the nursery she settled in quickly and Stepping Stones helped me in my funding application and in applying for tax credits. Thank you to all the staff members there, especially the staff in the Pre-School.

Review from Simonese G (Mother of Child) published on 13 March 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started attending this nursery at age 25 months. She was and still is a shy and observant child. It took her a while (about 6 months) to settle in but with the patience and tactile support the teachers gave her she has come on leaps and bounds and has gained much more confidence. Still over one year later more often then not she needs to be placed into the arms of one of the teachers in the morning but they are more than willing and understand it’s her comfort. I have found the staff very knowledgeable and approachable. I have found communication is fantastic; if I have called/emailed to find out information or pass on a message, it’s always been conveyed promptly. I recommend this nursery as the staff are great but also because the facilities are clean, modern and spacious which is also extremely important to me.

Our daughter who was not a native English speaker and attended Stepping Stones for 3 weeks and she had really nice time in the nursery. All the teachers were friendly. The management of the nursery school is excellent as they are in the school all the time and trying to help each parents. We are grateful for the nice friendly circumstances and lot of creative activities in the nursery. I strongly recommend to everybody.
