We believe every child is unique and deserves to feel valued and respected, so we create a secure, stimulating space where they can grow at their own pace with the support of a Key Person, a caring team, and active involvement from parents or carers.
Our inclusive environment encourages motivated learning through play, exploration, creativity, and critical thinking, while respecting diversity and giving extra support to those who need it.
Our riverside setting gives children space to explore, play, and connect with the world around them.
We’ve been part of the local community for over five decades and we’re still growing strong.
We offer up to 30 hours of funded childcare, making quality early education accessible for local families.
With a calm environment and caring team, children feel secure, supported, and ready to thrive.
I've had a lovely morning, thank you. What a great opportunity to take time out of my day and enjoy the time with my son.
What you do is so special and I am so grateful for all you have done for me and my child. If it weren't for your guidance we would not be all set up and ready for reception class. I hope all future parents know just how lucky their children are to be part of First Steps.
Another gorgeous morning! Thanks for all the crafts and singing. Priceless memories.
Really enjoyed the event. It was well planned with plenty of fun activities to do, thank you!
We really enjoyed our morning listening to the singing and doing Christmas Crafts. My daughter is very happy here and the staff are wonderful.
Loved the fact it was small pre-school, which was very much play based and was important to teach them to be kind, confident and independent.
I liked the mixture of outdoor learning e.g. going on walks, going on the bus, out for Chinese New Year. You don't get that at many Pre-schools.
Thank you for a lovely morning, it was great to see how comfortable and happy she is.
