From the Stepping Stones Preschool (Brackley)
A reputable nonprofit organisation called Stepping Stones provides pre-school instruction in the South Northamptonshire town of Brackley, which is seeing fast growth. Our personal key-person system and our adult-to-child ratios, which provide individualised care and attention, support our effort to educate children through play in a stimulating and supportive environment.
We provide flexible childcare for children ages 2 to 11 from 7.45 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays during the academic year and from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends. To allow parents flexibility and choice all year long, this is delivered through programmes during term time and holiday sessions. For those of school age, an after-school session includes a supervised walking bus from neighbouring Bracken Leas School as well as playgroup and preschool classes. Sessions include a breakfast session with a walking bus to the school. We accept all students for our after-school programme, even though Bracken Leas School is the only location from which we provide a walking bus service.
