Really good. Every morning they ask how he has been overnight, on collection they tell us about his day including what he had for lunch and dinner, and any activities. Any issues during the day they give us a phone call. Great service.

He absolutely loves going to nursery, which says so much about the staff and the environment they've created for the children. Everyone is so caring, patient and genuinely seems to care about him as an individual. It gives me so much reassurance knowing that when he's there, he's happy, comfortable and being well looked after.
What really stands out to me is how much they care even when he isn't at nursery. If he's been off poorly, they've even called to check how he is doing, which I think is such a lovely and thoughtful touch.
I'm so grateful for everything they've done and continue to do for him. Knowing he's somewhere he loves, with people who genuinely care about him while also helping him learn and develop, means so much to me.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely message. We're truly grateful for your kind words.It means a lot to hear that you've seen such positive progress in your son since he started, and that he absolutely loves nursery-our team works hard to create a warm, caring environment where children feel safe, happy, and valued as individuals.
We also appreciate your comments about our staff and the support we offer even when children are not at nursery. Knowing we're able to reassure families and keep a close, caring connection is really important to us.
Thank you again for your trust and gratitude. We're very happy to have you and your son with us, and we look forward to continuing to support his learning and growth.
My child is always so happy at the nursery. They walk in and go straight to their room by themselves, which shows how comfortable and content they feel there. It makes me so pleased to see them enjoy their time and settle so easily every day.

It's good to hear how happy your child is at nursery! Their ability to walk in confidently and head straight to their room really shows how secure and comfortable they feel in that environment. It's a good sign of their growing independence and trust in the nursery practitioners. I'm glad they are enjoying their time at nursery settling. Thank you for sharing this lovely feedback!

The staff here are wonderful, this our second journey with them as we have had a second baby and loved how much our first born thrived here. The staff are dedicated and have learnt the personality of our baby and his needs in no time, making him feel welcome and safe there. He is now confident and happy within the nursery setting, they are great at communication and i feel so comfortable with them caring for our son. There are plenty of areas and toys for the babies to choose to play with, as well as a great variety of foods. If i have any questions, they find answers straight away for me. I have no complaints at all, theyre great.

This nursery setting is absolutely fantastic. Both of my daughters have received fantastic care whilst attending here over the past few years. Staff are caring and friendly - this goes for every member of staff I have ever spoken with and about any query I've had. My daughters love playing both inside and out, and they learn so much whilst here, I highly recommend Stepping Stones Day Nursery at Lingley Mere.
Thank you for your review. It is lovely to hear how both of your children have enjoyed coming to nursery and how much they have learnt whilst being with us.

It is very clear through the welcome we get each day, and the way he talks about everyone when he's at home, that all of the staff really care for him and make sure his time at nursery is a fun and enjoyable experience.
I am also confident they've had a positive influence on his development, supporting him to walk, talk and now learn numbers and letters.
His little sister has also recently started the nursery and all the staff have done everything they can to help her settle in.
I'm very grateful to all the team at Stepping Stones!

As a team we love to have feedback that you as a parent can see the genuine love and care we have for the children that join our nursery, we strive to give each child great experiences that help support their individual learning and development alongside making it fun. As children become more vocal in their communication we also enjoy the stories they share with us and their friends about their own life experiences. Thank you for your kind review.
Stepping Stones Day Nursery have been brilliant with my little boy. He was very unsettled starting and they were just lovely and patient with him. The feedback each day is thorough and he now enjoys going there. I love seeing pictures of him there.

They are very supportive if I, or my husband, have any questions/concerns.
I can not be happier with the nursery and its staff.
My daughter loves attending, she is always excited about going, she talks about it when she's at home, she even role plays at home, and she, of course, is the teacher.
My daughter has a very good relationship with the staff, as do I.
Thank you for everything you've done for our daughter and us, so far.
As a team we are always looking at exciting ways to help children learn and develop into becoming independent with every day skills, including washing their hands, social dining and getting ready for the outdoors. The children are amazing and try hard as they learn and pick up new skills. Thank you...

The children are amazing and try hard as they learn and pick up new skills. Thank you for your lovely review, I love to hear the stories of when the children are at home and play "the teacher".
My son has been at Stepping Stones Day Nursery for almost 18 months. He absolutely loves it which makes it so much easier as a parent when you drop him off! They have assisted with every stage of his development, most recently adjusting into the toddler room which has been a big step up for him.

We are always happy to help in any way with advice and support readily at hand.
Highly recommend this nursery and have done to many friends and family since we enrolled. It's always been a friendly warm atmosphere since my son started back in May 2022. He looks forward to nursery and leaves happy and content after his day. The staff are friendly and approachable. Thank you!

Thank you for recommending our nursery to your friends as it's lovely to see children build on their own friendships with those that are familiar to them in and out of the nursery setting. This also enables the children to become more confident in themselves and those around them. Thank you for your review too!

My little girl has attended this nursery for just over a year and has transitioned from the babies room, through pre-toddlers and recently into toddlers. Each room has helped her develop in so many different ways at each stage, and all of the girls in each room are an absolute credit to the nursery. I know my little girl is with people who genuinely care for her when I drop her off! She always comes out with the biggest smile, and seeing what she's been up to with her friends throughout the day via the app and through handovers with the staff is fabulous. Never had any issues, and the communication has always been spot on.
Thank you for your lovely review of our setting, here at Stepping Stones we aim to support you and your child in every way possible as they learn and grow into little independent people.

The team provides engaging activities that encourage learning, creativity, and social development. She loves the fun crafts, story time, and outdoor play, always coming home excited to share her day. The staff genuinely care about the children and keep parents updated with regular photos and progress reports.
The facilities are clean, safe, and well-equipped, with a strong focus on learning through play. Stepping Stones is more than just childcare, it's a place where children grow, make friends, and gain confidence.
I couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring and high-quality nursery!
Thank you for a lovely review. I am glad your little girl enjoys her time at nursery and shares her experiences with you whilst at home.
Excellent nursery cannot fault anything about it, our son is in such good hands and loves it at Stepping Stones Day Nursery. All the staff are brilliant and would highly recommend. Nothing is too much trouble!

My son is due to start in April 2025 just after his 1st birthday and I already know he will have the same great experience.
I would wholly recommend Stepping Stones to anyone!

My daughter starting Stepping Stones Day Nursery when she was a year old. From her very first sessions, I felt as though I was handing her over to extended family, all the staff were so caring and nurturing. They took a great interest to learn her routines and to find out what comforted her. I felt confident and happy that my daughter was in such excellent hands. Our daughter is now 19 months old and has come on brilliantly since being at Stepping Stones, she interacts well with other children, is confident and most importantly of all, happy. All the staff at the nursery are incredibly friendly and approachable. They keep us updated daily on what our daughter has been doing, with regular pictures. The nursery is in such a beautiful location and my daughter regularly goes to the library, duck pond and park which she loves. I myself have a disability and the management have been tremendous at ensuring access needs such as accessible parking are available to me, something which I really appreciate.
Thank you so much for your review. It really makes myself proud as a nursery manager of the team and their daily actions, which help support you and your family.

This nursery has been fantastic for both my boys! My eldest started in January 2019 and my youngest will finish September 2026, so we have had many years with this nursery! One thing that stands out is how attentive and caring the staff are, my boys loved their nursery workers and both made lots of friends. They learnt many skills there, including using a knife and fork, which was a surprise for us! Very approachable and accommodating, would highly recommend.
Thank you for your comments. We strive to support children with everyday life skills, which enables them to become independent individuals for their future.
It's a fantastic nursery. From the first people you meet at the door, through to the last person, everyone smiles and is very welcoming. This sets a great tone for the children but also for the parents walking in. The staff are lovely, kind, happy and calm every day. I'm sure, as parents, we know...
Facilities are excellent.
Lovely review and thank you. We appreciate the trust you put in myself and the team.

Hello there,
I have a wealth of experience working in the early years and have been part of the Stepping Stones family for 27 years. Starting as an early years practitioner I have progressed and developed my career as a Nursery Manager experiencing all aspects of childcare and management.
My latest challenge, which has been my biggest challenge within my career so far is supporting and developing a large setting for the children, families and staff within.
My passion has always remained in childcare and that is to support children and families with the knowledge and skills gained throughout from beginning to end.

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone!
I have worked in childcare now for the past 31 years, working alongside fantastic colleagues, children and their families throughout my time.
No two days are the same, there is a new challenge awaiting around every corner which is what keeps me going, whether that is supporting the child, families or team. I always strive for the best outcomes for all.
Primarily I chose my career path a long time ago for the same reason I continue to be working in a nursery environment today and that is simple….. I love to see children thrive as they learn and develop through the early years,
Secondary, I thrive when I see new colleague start their career path as I did with hopes and dreams for their future.
