Children playing with paints in our Gloucester nursery

Key Steps Day Nursery Gloucester

Now part of Key Steps, the nursery has been completely refurbished and reimagined from top to bottom, creating bright, thoughtfully designed spaces where children can feel safe, happy and confident to explore, learn and thrive.

Outside, our generous gardens give children plenty of room to run, explore nature, get muddy and enjoy being outdoors throughout the year.

Fresh food, cooked on site every day

Good food is a big part of life at Key Steps.

All of our meals are freshly prepared on site each day by our nursery chef, using fresh, carefully selected ingredients to create nutritious meals for growing children.

We introduce children to a wide variety of tastes, textures and ingredients, with relaxed and sociable mealtimes that encourage them to try new things and develop a positive relationship with food from an early age.

Children also have opportunities to learn where food comes from through growing, preparing and cooking, making food and nutrition part of everyday learning.

Learning through play and exploration

At Key Steps, we believe children learn best when they feel secure, valued and excited to discover something new.

Our child-led, play-based approach follows the Early Years Foundation Stage while giving children the freedom to follow their interests, ask questions, make choices and try new things.

Our experienced team gets to know every child as an individual, helping them develop confidence, communication, independence, curiosity and resilience at their own pace.

For our preschool children, we also focus on the confidence and practical skills that help make the move to school a positive and exciting next step.

The Key Steps approach

Key Steps Gloucester brings the same values and approach as our Cirencester nursery.

We bring that same focus on strong relationships, inspiring environments, fresh food, outdoor experiences and high-quality early years care to Gloucester.

Most importantly, we want children to enjoy coming to nursery and parents to feel completely confident in the care they receive.
