Footsteps Dosthill Nursery & Pre-School

Lovely team, easy communication. My daughter has made tremendous progress since starting nursery. There are lots of activities throughout the day to keep things interesting. We particularly love the forest school and the seasonal events (Halloween party, Christmas Dinner, etc) where parents came come and play too! Fantastic nursery would highly recommend.

Footsteps Dosthill continues to meet the needs of our daughter and our family. All staff, regardless of their senior passion (or apprentice position) display the same level of care, compassion and knowledge. We continue to be very impressed.

Amazing staff with a big heart and caring mindset. It’s wonderful seeing my daughter get excited about going to nursery here. The teachers really make an effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualised way. The management are really committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment and we’re very thankful to staff for all their hard work. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since moving into their room. Her speech is amazing and her confidence has grown so much. I also need to thank the whole team for all their hard work and the effort they put in, nothing is ever too hard and my child is always greeted with a smile.

I cannot recommend this nursery enough. The staff are lovely, friendly and professional. My daughter is so happy when I drop her off and she loves her teachers so much. Overall great environment, excellent management, fantastic staff.

My son started at Footsteps in Dosthill at 7 months old and not even two weeks in, I could see so much developmental. The staff knows and understands children’s development and how to support in helping children to hit those milestones. Staff are friendly and patient and encourage parents to openly communicate which helps build positive relationships. Daily communication about my child’s day is something I look forward to and they really take the time to go through his day, ensuring they encourage a range of skills to be explored through different activities. I am so pleased with our first experience of the nursery, so thank you!

Our second child is now at this nursery and we could not be happier. She settled in very quickly and is very happy to go each morning. She loves the team there and already we can see her development in the few months she has been there. The staff clearly love their jobs and put their heart into everything they do there. Everyone welcomes you with a smile and as a parent you know you are leaving your child in a safe, loving environment.

Staff are very friendly and talkative. My child loves going there; he gets excited, which is very reassuring and nice. The food they give him is lovely – a good variety. I like the notes I get every day; it’s really nice, I like knowing what he gets up to.

Our son has been attending Footsteps Dosthill Nursery & Pre-School for nearly 18 months. He has thoroughly enjoyed his time there so far and excitedly tells us about his activities, his friends and the team who look after him. We have nothing but the highest praise for all those who have looked after him and we have interacted with.

Very happy with the care my child is receiving, she seems happy at drop-off now she has settled. All staff are kind, considerate, empathetic and passionate in their roles. My child has developed quickly from being in her nursery setting – learning new skills, playing with new toys, experiencing new styles of play and interacting confidently with other adults and other children.

My daughter is coming to the end of her Footsteps Dosthill Nursery and Pre-School experience and I am heartbroken about it. She has absolutely loved her time with all the team from baby room all the way through to preschool. The girls provide outstanding care and they provide her with the best experiences. She has become a confident and independent little girl who is ready to take on her new chapter at school and that is thanks to the wonderful team at Footsteps Dosthill Nursery and Pre-School. I honestly couldn’t thank them enough. Every single person that is involved with the nursery provides nothing but an outstanding service and I know my daughter is going to miss them all so much. Thank you Footsteps Dosthill Nursery and Pre-School for giving my daughter the best start to her education journey.
