Free Childcare Scheme
We take part in the Government scheme for eligible families
“Every child is fearfully and wonderfully made with unique purpose and value”
Every child at Stepping Stones is known, cared for and encouraged to grow at their own pace. Our educators guide children with patience and kindness, caring as much about how they feel and get along with others as about what they learn.
We work hand in hand with parents through these early years, so children grow in confidence, character and joy.
