I’m Sam, a mum to three grown up children. I have now been at nursery for 19 years, manager for 18. I love the privilege of being part of the village nursery and watching so many children come to us as they start their education and seeing them grow and develop. I really enjoy sitting and chatting with the children at lunch time, we have some really lovely conversations during this time!

I’m Stacy, I have been at Stepping Stones for 6 years -I love creating fun and exciting environments for children to explore and enjoy watching their individual learning journeys. I particularly enjoy getting involved with messy play and craft activities and love to see the children’s creations!

My name is Sally and I’ve been a part of the Stepping Stones team since 2020, in this time I have completed an apprenticeship becoming a qualified level 3 Early Years Practitioner. I enjoy going
on walks with my dog, and baking. I bring my love of baking to Stepping Stones by baking with the children so they can take them home to share with their families!

I’m Melissa, a Montessori and Forest School trained practitioner. My career spans nearly three decades. I love outdoor play and provision and cannot wait to get our nursery children growing lots of fruit and vegetables in the allotment. After a long break it is so lovely being back at nursery and I'm thoroughly enjoying working with the team & playing with the children.

I’m Sarah, I live locally with my husband and two children. It was through having my own children that my passion and devotion for caring and working within Early Years began. I feel it is such a reward to be part of this stage of childhood, children thriving through play and growing happily within a safe environment. I am very excited and keen to be part of such a lovely team at Stepping Stones.
