Stepping Stones Day Nursery - Washington

Our little boy has attended Stepping Stones Washington for over a year, and in that time we have seen fantastic development. From his key workers setting goals, and achieving them such as increasing his interest in reading and improving his range of vocabulary, to nurturing his confidence and encouraging his love for playing outside. Stepping Stones allows the children to flourish in the areas they show an interest in and quietly encourages them in areas which will benefit them. Our son has gone from a shy, quiet little boy to a confident, chatty little man with a love for books. The care, attention and love the staff at Stepping Stones show the children (and by extension the parents/carers) is unbridled. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff, facility and their practices. I would recommend and if we were to ever have further children in the future, we would not hesitate to send them here.

Our son has been attending Stepping Stones since April having moved from a previous nursery. Within just a month it was amazing to see what a difference Stepping Stones had made to our child’s development and confidence. We are so glad we made the change in nurseries and have continued to see our son develop. He has developed great relationships with his key worker, his speech has developed greatly, he can count to 10 and he is being less picky when eating at home. They do a great job with all the little ones in their care.

My daughter has attended the nursery since she was nine months old. The staff are very welcoming and we are always greeted with a warm and friendly ‘hello’, making her excited for the day ahead. With our private social media page, we are able to see what activities the children have been doing each week, as well as being told about their day on pickup. The children are encouraged with outdoor play in the lovely garden and my daughter has had several trips down to the duck pond, which she loves.
I receive regular updates on my daughter’s progress. When she was learning to walk, her key worker would check in with me to let me know what activities she had been practicing with her for encouragement. At two, my daughter’s communication is very good and she is able to count to ten, sing the alphabet and name most colours with ease, through the games and activities played at nursery as well as home.
I feel happy and confident in leaving my daughter each morning, knowing she is in such safe and loving hands.

Our ongoing experience of the nursery is very positive. My little boy has attended the nursery since he was 10 months old and he’s always happy to go and see his friends. His development has come on leaps and bounds since joining. The staff are all very caring and supportive.

Since moving our children to this nursery they have settled in very well. The staff are very good with them and actively encourage outdoor play in all weather and the variety of food at mealtimes has been great and improved eating at home too! A very friendly nursery and would recommend to others.
