About MiChild at Stepping Stones Nursery
Stepping Stones Nursery, proudly rated as "Good" by Ofsted, has a capacity of 57 children and has been part of the MiChild Family since 2020. Located in Hazel Grove, near Stepping Hill Hospital, our nursery serves families of both the public and hospital staff.
We have recently completed a full refurbishment, and soon we will include a hub for staff training and development across the MiChild Group. Our nursery features three newly refurbished large playrooms and an expansive garden area accessible from all three rooms. This outdoor space offers our children and staff countless opportunities for engaging in outdoor learning activities, allowing us to immerse ourselves in imaginative play-like baking a cake in the mud kitchen or exploring our five senses through full-body sensory play.
Conveniently situated off Bramhall Moor Lane, we are just a 15 minute drive from Stockport Town Centre. For those using public transport, we are on multiple bus routes, with one route dropping you off within a 10 minute walk of the nursery. If you're travelling by train, Woodsmoor station is also within walking distance. Additionally, we have car parking facilities available for drivers.
During breaks, you may want to take a walk. Within a short distance, you can easily access three different gyms and shops, including SPAR and Morrisons.
