To the whole Stepping Stones Team,

Stepping Stones has been a huge part of R's life, and ours, over the past two and a half years. From Baby Room, to First Steps and all the way up (or down!) to Big Steps.

Throughout his time with you, we have always very much trusted you in his safety and care there. We deeply appreciate the whole team and the energy and care which members of staff have put into helping R feel safe, grow and learn.

You do a wonderful job of making the absence of an outside space into a positive with the daily trips around Lewes and trips further afield in the minibus and on the train. R has loved these experiences. 

We will always be profoundly grateful to you all for looking after our little man, guiding his development and being such positive and important figures in his life.

We will always hold a special place in our hearts for you all and for the memories of R's time with you. We are sad to say goodbye and we will miss seeing you all on a regular basis.

The work you do with our most precious possessions is invaluable and requires a wide skill set. We want to thank you for the important work you do, day in, day out.

Huge thanks, R, K and L 

To the wonderful Baby Steps team, First Steps team and everyone at Stepping Stones,

We wanted to say a huge thank you for everything you have done for N during the last 10 months. He has had the best time with you all and made so many lovely memories that we'll always treasure. It's been a joy to watch his confidence grow, and we're so grateful for the kindness and energy you put into every day. 

We are truly sad to be leaving and will miss you all very much. Thank you for giving him such a wonderful start!

Wishing you all the best and we look forward to still seeing you around town!

To all the wonderful team at Stepping Stones, 

We wanted to say heartfelt thank you to the very special team who have been there over the last few years looking after T. We are so appreciative of the love, care and support you have given him. You have been such a big part of his life and have had a massive impact on him so early in his life, shaping who he is turning into today!

You work so hard in a job that is not given the recognition it deserves. We are so grateful you have been there at such an important period in his life. Thank you for everything you have done recently to get him ready for this next chapter. Our thanks to everyone who has worked with him. 

We hope you enjoy a very well deserved treat as a team!

Thank you so much to all the Stepping Stones team!

It has been an amazing few years watching J grow from an infant to a big kid and i am so grateful for all the  support and love J has received during his time in nursery.

Any day I dropped Jacob off crying when I picked him up he was smiling! And some days he didn't want to leave! 

Wishing you all the best for the future!
