The nursery follows the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, delivered with a Reggio Emilia inspired approach that encourages children to learn through exploration, creativity and collaboration. Learning areas are resourced with intention, provoking curiosity and purposeful play across all age groups, from babies to Foundation-stage children. Soft skills such as kindness, inclusion, tolerance and respect are woven into daily practice, supporting better behaviour and more rewarding social interactions between children. The curriculum spans key developmental milestones including early literacy, numeracy, sensory exploration and toilet independence. Children with additional needs are supported through a partnership with the Applied & Behavioral Training Institute (ABTI), which provides early intervention services for children with developmental delays.
الفئة العمرية: 45 days to 4 years
The nursery organises children into four core stages: Babies (45 days to 1 year), Toddlers (1 to 2 years), Nursery (2 to 3 years) and Foundation (3 to 4 years). Each stage follows a structured day of playing, learning and sharing activities suited to the children's developmental needs, from small world play and sensory exploration for babies to phonics, reading and critical thinking for Foundation-age children. Half day, extended day and full day programmes are available, with the most popular package being half day care five days a week. Early starts from 7:00am and late finishes until 5:30pm, Monday to Friday, are offered to support working families. From age two, children can also take part in extra-curricular activities delivered by vetted partners, including sports, dance and martial arts, with a nursery team member always on hand to support care routines.

Being part of the broader nursery group, this branch mirrors the same commitment to safe, stimulating early years environments found across all Step by Step locations.
