About Sunnah Steps
Sunnah Steps Nursery is a nurturing, faith-based environment for 2 to 4-year-olds, combining the EYFS curriculum with Islamic values. We're open to children of all faiths and backgrounds.
Learning should be joyful, exciting, and full of discovery
We create a welcoming and caring space where every child is encouraged to develop strong social skills, curiosity and independence at their own pace. Our approach supports children in becoming confident learners and compassionate individuals, equipped with the emotional and practical skills necessary to thrive.
Rooted in values inspired by Islamic teachings and a respect for all cultures and beliefs, we celebrate every child's unique journey as they build the skills and confidence needed for their next big step.
Seven key areas, one confident learner
Our curriculum is built to support young learners across the seven key areas of learning and development set out in the EYFS. The prime areas are embedded throughout a child's entire experience at nursery — including all planned activities and child-led play — while the specific areas are woven in to ensure every child can make progress towards their Early Learning Goals.
Our Values

Kindness

Confidence
We nurture independence, self-belief, and the ability to express thoughts and feelings freely.
Community & Belonging

Faith in Action
