My son has been attending Step by Step at Maryhill for over a year since he was one and I am very pleased with the care they provide. They are happy to receive feedback and have helped my son to develop his language skills and fine motor skills. The children get to spend time outdoors both in the nursery garden and in the nearby parks. Overall very happy with the nursery and would recommend it to other parents.
Thank you for these comments, Elle. It's been a pleasure to have your child in our baby room, and it's lovely to watch him growing up.
Wonderful nursery! Staff are excellent, helpful, and attentive. My son especially loves the sensory activities. There is a helpful app that gives you details of their day which really helped me with the nursery transition as a new mum.
Thanks, I am so pleased that you find the app useful and reassuring when your wee one started nursery.
Really engaged and caring staff. Lots of different activities each day for the children. Good Opportunities for visits outside the nursery to local parks and shops. Regular updates on daily activities, and on overall progress and development.
Thank you for these positive comments, Angela. We make every effort to take the children out and about so they know their local area well.
I am so happy about this nursery my son is happy to go to this nursery. All staff are very nice, kind and very helpful with kids. I am so proud of Step by Step Nursery, my son is very happy there and all staff are very caring and loving with kids all the time.
Thank you for these kind comments. Your son is such a chatterbox and it's great to hear all his stories at nursery.
Step by step nursery Maryhill is a brilliant nursery with caring and helpful staff. They really helped our eldest settle in when he started nursery again after a long break due to Covid lockdowns. They have always communicated quickly and been proactive with feedback. We would highly recommend!
It's been wonderful to see your children growing up, especially how much your eldest has come on recently.
The communication for the staff is brilliant; I am kept up to date with everything my children do and how they are progressing.
Step by Step has really looked after us as a family, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Thanks, Catriona; it's been a privilege to be with you through these last few years.
Couldn’t recommend Step by Step Maryhill enough. The girls are great with my little boy. Keep me updated regularly throughout the day which is a great peace of mind from starting from a young age. The picture and daily updates are great. The things my little boy has learned in there have been amazing and they know the right steps he should be at for his age. Girls are lovely too!
Thanks for your lovely comments, Shannon. It's such a pleasure to have your child with us in nursery, he's such a character. I am so pleased you find the app useful for feedback during the day.
All staff are very friendly. They pay attention to taking care of my son as well as his development skills. My son has very good care from the nursery. He really loves to go there have fun with other children, play and learn new things.
Thank you for your lovely comments about the nursery, we are delighted that your son is so happy with us.
Thank you so much to all staff.
Thank you for your helpful comments, Precious. We will miss him now that he has gone to school, he was a big character in our playroom and always made sure everyone was having lots of fun. We wish you all the very best for his move to primary school.
Lovely nursery! The staff are great and very friendly. The communication is fantastic, especially given recent times with Covid-19. Very reliable. The app that they use is really good. It's so nice getting updates and seeing some photos. The activities and crafts that they do are great, such as water play, books, songs and painting for cards. My wee one really enjoys her time at nursery and is happy there, which is so important. Thank you to everyone at Step by Step Private Nursery Maryhill.
Thank you for your review. The team and I are delighted that you and your little one adjusting well to the nursery. We are extremely proud of our service and provision offered. Ensuring the happiness of our children forms an extensive part of our day. I will be sure to pass on your words of thanks to the team.
I am very delighted to put my daughter in this nursery. After coming off maternity leave and restarting job, I was scared to leave my little one, but the staff at Step by Step nursery are brilliant. They have done a wonderful job with my little one. I must say that my daughter has been provided with the best care from them. Her weaning was not great, but Step by Step nursery has helped with that too. I can not thank you enough guys. You are very compassionate and caring. I and my husband are very happy with your care. We definitely recommend this nursery - 5-stars for you guys!
Thank you for your review. We are delighted that you, your husband and little one are settling in so well. The staff pride themselves in making sure all our families and their precious children receive the highest standard of care with loads of room for cuddles.
Step by Step is a fantastic nursery. The staff are so caring and my daughter loves her time there. A lot of care and attention towards the children. The kids are kept engaged by learning activities and crafts.
We value your feedback. It is greatly appreciated. We are delighted to hear that your little one is content and happy to be at nursery. Following 'In The Moment' planning allows for more engagement, stronger attachments and caters to each child's interests and building on their next steps of development. We thank you for your continued support.
I have two children at Step by Step. My eldest is 3 and a half in the rainbow room and my youngest is 14 months in the baby bears room. They both love nursery and have settled really well with their key workers and all the staff at the nursery. The nursery is great at communicating with an app that shows me observations, updates about what they have eaten, nappies and all sorts. They have catered really well to the dietary requirements for my children and I can tell they have loving attachments at the core of what they do. They have recently done up the outdoor space a lot with great new experiences and resources that my son really loves. Thanks to all the staff at Step by Step for the care and attention to my boys!
Your feedback is of great value to Step by Step and we are truly inspired to hear that your boys have built strong and trusting relationships with the staff. Being able to communicate effectively with our families is very important to us. Our cook is mindful to ensure that all meals are prepared...
My daughter loves Step by Step so much. A caring environment that I feel safe dropping her off each day. All the staff know all the children so feels like a great community. I get pictures and other creations my child has made which is special and I think she eats better, more diverse foods than I eat! Very jealous. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.
Thank you kindly for your feedback. We pride ourselves in creating an environment that is safe, stimulating and caring for each of the children. We inspire our children to be creative while playing indoors and outdoors. We appreciate your recommendation to Step by Step Nursery.
My child has attended Step by Step for 2 1/2 years. I couldn't recommend the nursery any more. The staff are very affectionate and friendly. I get constant updates all day at work which I enjoy and makes me feel at ease.
Thank you for your feedback. It is greatly appreciated. It is of great importance that we have these strong bonds with our children and their families, so we are delighted to hear that the staff team continue to make you and your little one feel at ease.
My little girl has not long started at Step by Step, and she has loved it from day one, always goes in not a problem and does not like to leave. The staff are lovely, and my little girl has taken to them very quickly, which I was not expecting. Would definitely recommend this nursery for your little ones.
Thank you for the kind words and recommendation of our nursery. We are really happy to hear that your little one has settled in so well and has adjusted to her new environment. We wish you a long and happy association with us at Step by Step Nursery.
My daughter attends the nursery and absolutely loves it. My eldest daughter who is now at school also attended the nursery, and we couldn’t fault them. The management and practitioners are excellent with the kids and extremely approachable. There is a large range of activities for the kids to take part in. The nursery has a Forrest school programme, which is amazing and out with the COVID restrictions, they offer swimming lessons as well as singing and rhyme classes. My daughter is quite shy, but since she has attended the nursery, her confidence has soared! I put this down to the excellent care and encouragement she receives at Step by Step. I 100% recommend the nursery.
Thank you for your feedback and for recommending our nursery. It is wonderful to hear that you have been a part of the Step by Step family for many years and are still enjoying your journey with us.
My son and I have both had a very positive experience at Step by Step Maryhill. The staff are professional, enthusiastic and engage well with all the children. The activities and meals provided are varied and they are more than willing and able to provide additional support, like in the case of my son who was born prematurely and has a mild developmental delay. Having moved my son from a different nursery after concerns around the care he was receiving, I am now so much happier and know he is in good hands and having fun. I would thoroughly recommend Step by Step to other parents.
Thank you for recommending our nursery, Lorraine. Our menu is carefully selected with valuable input from staff, parents and children. That extra attention is always given to the children's diet, nutrition and eating patterns. We are glad to hear that you and your little one are enjoying your experience at Step by Step Nursery.
Our little boy has attended Step by Step for over three years and has loved his time there. The staff are friendly and communicate well in person and through app updates too. There is a lovely sense of community at the nursery, with opportunities for parents or family to get involved throughout the year. The forest school programme (at the children's wood) and swimming lessons are a real bonus, and our little one particularly enjoys music class too. These activities were a draw for us and helped to break up the more traditional nursery setting. The staff make the most of the yard areas (no lawn/green space) and spend lots of time outdoors. They regularly take walks along the canal, go to the Botanics or a trip to the shops, and (pre covid) visits to the local care home too. It's a lovely wee nursery.
Thank you for the greatly appreciated feedback, Nicola. It is wonderful to know that your little one enjoys his stay at Step by Step. Daily feedback to our parents is of great importance to us and take pride in ensuring that our little ones enjoy their day at nursery with the various stimulating activities on offer.
My son has been at Step by Step Maryhill for 10 months, and I have only good things to say about it. The staff are friendly, professional and caring. We get regular updates during the day via the ParentZone app. During the initial settling in period, staff were reassuring and patient (with him and me!). There's been a great effort over the last year to make improvements: the menus have been reviewed and improved, and the outdoor areas have been upgraded. Pricing is reasonable, especially as all meals and snacks are included, which is a great relief! My son obviously loves his time at nursery, eats well, and has made great progress with his speech since returning after lockdown! During the pandemic, the staff have been great at keeping us informed and safe, and lots of effort was made to stay engaged with the kids during the lockdown. I'd recommend Step by Step to anyone.
Thank you for the kind words of appreciation. We are extremely happy to hear that the improvements that have been made have been enjoyed by you and your son. The children are truly enjoying their rich outdoor environment. It was our pleasure of staying in touch with our families during the lockdown period. We had great fun engaging with the children during story and activity time.
