The staff are all lovely and very flexible, the ladies went above and beyond over lockdown. They did videos of stories, songs and suggested activities that could be done at home. They also dropped a care package into children at home, this was such a lovely touch, our daughter was made up with it. We love that they Focus on a different number, letter, colour and shape each week. Communication is always really good with the daily focus, snack and what the hot dinner if required is and activities available shared on the app they use every morning. This app also is updated at the end of the session with children’s daily activities, wow moments,  Sleep times etc Which we love as we can see what she’s been up to. They also use tapestry to document their learning so you can always see how they are doing. We would definitely recommend!",

With the app you can message the staff if you need to during the day and even during the weekend a member of staff is always on hand to reply to you.\nThe staff cater for my child’s dietary needs and any incidents or accidents they inform you accordingly.\nThe ladies at Mattishall they actually care about your child. It’s not just a job to them they actually show empathy and understanding which is a very rare thing.\nThe lady who runs Mattishall is Zoe and even though she isn’t based at Mattishall full time she is always available and Zoe is a terrific leader / boss. You can talk to her and she actually listens, she doesn’t just stand there nodding her head and ignoring what you say she actually listens just like the other ladies do.\nMy child comes home with happy smiles usually covered head to foot in goodness knows what but the smile on their face is worth it as a messy child is a happy child.\nThe drawings and things they make are always of abundance and the smiles and look what I made is so worth it.\nYou will be hard pressed to find a nursery that helps your child for their next step to big school as much as Little Footsteps in Mattishall do.\nThey work along the curriculum of the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Scheme) and they keep you updated with your child’s progress.\nIf you enrol your child at Little Footsteps at Mattishall you will have a happy and well looked after child.",

Inclusion & environment

## How they support every child

SEND provision

Staff effectively support children's speech and language through everyday interactions, as well as targeted interventions. They skilfully engage children in conversation and create opportunities for every child to join in. This helps children to develop confidence in speaking and expressing themselves clearly.

Outdoor space

Children particularly enjoy learning outside and can freely move between the indoor and outdoor environments. They explore the climbing frame and spend extended periods in the mud kitchen, cooking for their friends and staff. On arrival, children are keen to go straight outside to play in the garden. They relish the physical challenge of the climbing frame and develop self-confidence as they learn to manage risks by navigating its steep slope.

My little girl has attended Little Footsteps since she was 6months old. She loves going and always comes home happy. The staff are all great and always keep me well informed of her development. I have no issues or concerns about leaving her in their very capable hands! Lovely nursery with a great outdoor area with friendly, helpful staff. Highly recommended!

Our daughter loves her time at Little Footsteps of Mattishall. It’s a lovely setting with lots of outside space And different activities available. The staff are all lovely and very flexible, the ladies went above and beyond over lockdown. They did videos of stories, songs and suggested activities that could be done at home. They also dropped a care package into children at home, this was such a lovely touch, our daughter was made up with it. We love that they Focus on a different number, letter, colour and shape each week. Communication is always really good with the daily focus, snack and what the hot dinner if required is and activities available shared on the app they use every morning. This app also is updated at the end of the session with children’s daily activities, wow moments, Sleep times etc Which we love as we can see what she’s been up to. They also use tapestry to document their learning so you can always see how they are doing. We would definitely recommend!

Our 2 boys both attend little footsteps in Mattishall and they absolutely love it! Our oldest is starting school in September and we feel they are preparing him for school so well. The nursery really focus on the individual learning and care needs of each child. Staff are very warm and approachable. The Famly app is great as we receive updates of their day at nursery. It also enables us to send messages with any questions we may have, which in our experience have always been responded to quickly. We can’t recommend it enough!

The staff at Little Footsteps in Mattishall are amazing. From day one my child felt comfortable and at ease. Having the app so can see what they do during the day is terrific and being able to upload what we do at home is really good as it helps with their EYFS development. With the app you can message the staff if you need to during the day and even during the weekend a member of staff is always on hand to reply to you. The staff cater for my child’s dietary needs and any incidents or accidents they inform you accordingly. The ladies at Mattishall they actually care about your child. It’s not just a job to them they actually show empathy and understanding which is a very rare thing. The lady who runs Mattishall is Zoe and even though she isn’t based at Mattishall full time she is always available and Zoe is a terrific leader / boss. You can talk to her and she actually listens, she doesn’t just stand there nodding her head and ignoring what you say she actually listens just like the other ladies do. My child comes home with happy smiles usually covered head to foot in goodness knows what but the smile on their face is worth it as a messy child is a happy child. The drawings and things they make are always of abundance and the smiles and look what I made is so worth it. You will be hard pressed to find a nursery that helps your child for their next step to big school as much as Little Footsteps in Mattishall do. They work along the curriculum of the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Scheme) and they keep you updated with your child’s progress. If you enrol your child at Little Footsteps at Mattishall you will have a happy and well looked after child.

Highly recommend this nursery. The nursery has a family feel which I love. My little boy loves going to nursery and has learnt so much since being there. He always comes home super happy after nrusery. The staff are absolutely amazing and keep you updated via an app with pictures of your child throughout the day, which is so reassuring while your at work.
