My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. The staff at stepping stones are absolute experts and I love hearing what she has been up to when I pick her up. I couldn't wish for a better nursery if I tried.

The staff are great and my son loves all of them. Pick-ups and drop-offs are quick and easy and I always get a full handover of how his day has been. His days are full of activities and learning and playing outside which he loves.

My son has come on in leaps and bounds since coming to nursery as he was slow with his speech, however, I am seeing a huge difference in him now.

However, whilst I was experiencing separation anxiety, my little girl was having the time of her life. The whole team show so much love and care for my child it's like she has a...
Since she started at nursery we have also found that she is making massive developmental and also social leaps. This has been achieved by the constant interaction with other children of different ages, the whole nursery team and all of the different stimulating games and activities carefully arranged each day.
Thank you to the whole team at Stepping Stones Rothwell for providing a safe, loving, happy and educational setting for my baby to grow and learn.

I would absolutely recommend this nursery.
The place is small enough to keep the personal touch whilst big enough to offer three separate spaces for babies, toddlers and preschool.
The staff are just fabulous and form excellent bonds with the kids (and parents) and they are professional and warm.
The nursery is currently under excellent management by the nursery manager and the senior team, all of whom have worked in the nursery for a number of years. There is just the right amount of communication so I feel informed but not overrun. Photos are shared (by permission) in a closed group so I can see my child interacting with others as well as taking part in activities and regular outings.
The outside space has recently been beautifully renovated.
The thing that stands out for me over the years is that the nursery has a very child-led ethos where the kids can discover their own interests at their own pace.

Stepping Stones Nursery has been amazing I was anxious about leaving my little one and going to work as he had only been around me and my mum. Although he sometimes he cries when I drop him off he always leaves with a smile on his face after having a nice time. The nursery staff are lovely and I can see he is in good hands, they always give a report of sleep food and what he's been up to and are really helpful when I have asked for advice. I am happy with our choice of nursery and look forward to hearing about the fun things my son has done at nursery.

Hi,
I’m Megan, the Acting Nursery Manager at Stepping Stones Rothwell.
I’ve been part of the Stepping Stones family for over nine years, starting my journey as an apprentice and working my way through roles including Nursery Practitioner, Room Leader, Senior Nursery Practitioner, and now Acting Nursery Manager.
I hold a Level 3 Childcare qualification, and I am also the Designated Safeguarding Lead with a Paediatric First Aid qualification. Supporting children as they reach new milestones is one of the best parts of my job — being able to celebrate those moments with them at nursery is truly special.
