Quality Assurance

Steps Ahead Day Nursery is a member of the National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA). The nursery has always followed a strategy of development and quality, and thus embarked on the NDNA's Quality Asssurance campaign, 'Quality Counts'.

Quality Counts encourages high standards across all aspects of nursery care, education, management, environment partnerships with parents and development of staff. Full details of the Quality Assurance scheme can be found on the NDNA web site.

We were delighted to receive this prestigious award in September 2007, achieving a fantastic level II grade.
