Step Start Mountnessing

My 4-year-old son has been at Step Start since he was 18 months, and we have always had a very positive experience as parents. Our son has always loved being in the happy, friendly and nurturing environment they have. He has developed some lovely bonds with the staff there, and I always feel happy when dropping him off.
My second child is due to start, and I have no worries that he will settle and love it there just as much as my eldest.

The staff at Step Start are fantastic. They create a warm, relaxed and nurturing environment, and I have continued to be impressed by the level of care my daughter has received since joining the nursery. It’s not easy to leave your child/children with others, but through regular updates, we are assured that she is in a home away from home.

My son recently started at Step Start, and they have been absolutely brilliant. I was so nervous about leaving him with people he didn’t know, but meeting the team put my mind at ease straight away, and he absolutely loves it!
My son has allergies, and they have given me so much confidence in how they’ve managed to keep him safe.
The app the nursery uses are fantastic. It makes me feel so much more at ease to know what he’s up to whilst he’s there, what he’s eating and when he’s sleeping etc. The team are great at contacting me over the phone if needed too.
I would absolutely recommend Step Start to anyone!

When my daughter wakes up asking to go to the nursery, that’s how you know she is well looked after!
My little one is continuously talking about her teachers and peers.
The food selection is great… the app and photo updates make my day.
I am extremely grateful for all of the staff… they always take the time to say hello and ask how you are as a parent!
Thank you, Step Start!

I honestly cannot express how highly I regard Step Stars as a nursery setting to me their service is impeccable! My daughter has been with the nursery for two years now, having been a baby born during Covid, she was naturally quite shy and clingy, to begin with, but the team in the Little Leaps classroom have just supported her every step of the way! From the beautiful relationships she formed with her key worker to the constant support and positive feedback offered by the room lead and the fun, warm and kind natures of all the girls.
She has recently made the transition down to the Big Steps room and is already building a fantastic relationship with the team, who are already happily reporting how confidently she enjoys the room and supporting her to develop her skills and relationships!
The senior team, led by the manager, is always so incredibly accommodating and helpful! In short, they are just fantastic, deserving of six stars!

I would highly recommend Step Sart Mountnessing. My son started when he was just under one. He is three now and absolutely loves going every day. All staff are very professional caring and polite. There are always plenty of fun activities planned throughout the day, and parents receive daily photo reports at the end of each day, which is great. Parent stay and play days are great too, as it gives us the opportunity to see where our children spend most of their time as well as meet other parents.

Would 100% recommend Step Start Mountnessing. My 2 little boys both attend and absolutely love it! The staff are amazing, friendly and so caring with all the children. The famly app is also brilliant keeping me up to date with all the daily activities that they get up to and seeing regular photos. Everyone and everything is absolutely brilliant 24/7!

We have sent both of our children to Step Start nursery, and both have thrived there.
The children make wonderful bonds with their teachers and really learn a lot whilst they’re there! They’re always happy to go to the nursery, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming.
It would be lovely to have more access to a larger outdoor area, but the nursery makes good use of the space they have.

Step Start Mountnessing is an absolutely wonderful nursery! My daughter has been attending since April 2021 for four full days a week, and this is her 2nd nursery, having attended one in another area before. She loves the teachers and looks forward to going every day. The staff are so lovely and attend to each child. The care that is given is of high quality, and my daughter is learning so much! She has excelled immensely, and friends and family comment on how good her knowledge is for her age. The subjects they explore and cover each day are so diverse that not one day is the same, and the joy my daughter has at this nursery is all thanks to the wonderful people working at this nursery! I highly recommend this place!

My son started at Step Start Mountnessing a few weeks ago, and I’m delighted with how easily the staff have made this transition in his life (and ours!). The updates provided throughout the day via the app are very reassuring, and I have confidence that his allergy needs will be looked after at all times. Step Start has also been great at putting on different daily activities, and I’m pleased they are focused on child development as well as child care. Thank you, everyone, for your hard work – highly recommended!
