A fun and welcoming space to learn and play

Our founding site at Chalfont St Peter is conveniently located in the grounds of Chalfont St Peter Football Club. The former club facilities have been transformed into a bright, welcoming space for all of the children to enjoy. The nursery caters for children from 3 months through to school age and also offers before and after school care, as well as, flexible hours to accommodate parents’ needs wherever possible. Both 15 and 30 hours of funded places are available and term-time only places for teaching parents are on offer.

We are very fortunate to have access to the grounds and pitch meaning lots of outdoors space to run around, play ball and tennis on, meaning we access to the great outdoors 24/7. The location offers plenty of opportunity for free flow outside play, sports, nature walks, and a Forest School area.

As a Forest School nursery, we run regular sessions for the children taking full advantage of our surroundings.

We have also teamed up to provide Footsteps football coaching and holiday clubs.

Chalfont Holiday Club

We run Holiday Clubs for Children up to 8 years.  To enquire about spaces please email ChalfontStPeter@footsteps-nursery.co.uk

Food and Nutrition

Maria is our head chef at Footsteps who lovingly plans all of our menus. All of our meals are freshly cooked in-house.

“I feel that it is really important for children to understand where vegetables comes from. I review our menus on a quarterly basis and receive feedback from my team which ones the children like. My roast chicken dinner is one of our children’s current favourites, empty plates every time.”

Your child will experience a wide range of tastes and textures from our weekly menus. Each meal is carefully planned, so that each child will receive a balanced and healthy snack or meal. We have a good food hygiene rating and will cater for your child if they have specific dietary requirements! Don’t worry, we are happy to cater for you!

One of our parents said “Firstly, I wanted to say how lucky we feel to have had the chance to get to know you all at the nursery. You’re all incredible and the support you have shown my family has been overwhelming. My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting with you, I could’nt be more proud of him”.

    What our parents say…

    “We have been with Footsteps for the past 7 years and they have been amazing with all 3 of my children. The staff are kind, caring, and approachable and they create a stimulating and nurturing environment for the children. They plan and deliver lovely activities and provide regular updates about the children’s progress. My children have always been so happy at Footsteps and look forward to their days at nursery each week.“

    “Both our sons go to Footsteps and we couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery. Our children learn through play and have so much fun throughout the day. The staff are highly professional and make learning fun for the children. They have helped my eldest son to develop his social skills and become more confident. It is such a comfort to know our sons are so well looked after and enjoy their time at nursery. “

    “We have both of our boys at Footsteps in Chalfont since they just turned 1 and 2 and a half years later – the team feel like an extension of our family. They are absolutely amazing and down to earth, really get to know the child and their strengths and needs and embrace every part of them. We are confident leaving one boy’s in the morning they are going to have so much fun all day and be well cared for.“

    “I was terrified to leave my daughter with people I didnt know and being a first time mum, it was all new to me. But the care, love and support has been incrediable and I am so thankful that we have chosen Footsteps to look after her. She has bloomed into such an amazing child and part of that is down to the time she spends with everyone. I cant wait to see how much she thrives into the Toddler Room. I sing your praises to all my friends who are looking for nurseries.“

    Jo, Manager

    “I have been in childcare since the age of 23. I have a range of experience and qualification which I use to run the nursery on a day to day basis. I enjoy watching the children join as a baby and develop through the years to leave and go to school and know I had a part in that. I feel that having a good rapport with parent, helps us to make sure they feel happy about leaving their children in our safe hands. Here at footsteps provide a home from home environment with a long standing team and I as a manager and very proud of my team.”
