The beginning of November has been a whirlwind as we celebrated a world of colour.  With fireworks and Diwali taking top spots on the calendar recently, we enjoyed lots of different activities which have brightened up our walls […]

Remembering Our Queen at Footsteps

  • Chalfont St Peter, Farnborough, Footsteps News, Maple Cross, Oving, Watermead
The passing of our monarch Queen Elizabeth II was a huge loss to the Royal family and to the Nation. We felt it was important that we helped the children within our settings to make sense of this national event, its importance in History and also to help them negotiate any feelings around the events that might arise. But as you can imagine, this is something that needs to be […]

It’s great to be in the garden at Footsteps Farnborough!

  • Farnborough, Footsteps News
As the sun has come out to play this June we have had plenty of opportunity to enjoy the newly developed garden area at Farnborough.

"My husband and I cannot possibly thank the Footsteps team enough for the way they have looked after our daughter over the past two years. The team have shown her nothing but patience and care, always building her up and providing copious amounts of cuddles.

I’ve never known any other preschool to provide such attentive daily care, my daughter was so well looked after. They always kept a line of continuous communication with us regardless of which staff member was at the gate taking children in or out. The team were continuously developing new ways to help her feel comfortable and communicate her feelings.

They have been there for my daughter through some huge milestones and the difference they have made is immeasurable. I think the footsteps team is second to none and we will miss them dearly".

"The facilities at the nursery are fantastic and the outside space is both exceptional and unrivalled in the local area. This together with their experienced and dedicated members of staff, make it difficult to persuade my children to come home." Mrs. Cosma
