History

It was a group of parents from Donnington Playgroup (as it was called until September 2016) who set up Donnington Doorstep in 1984 and the relationship between the organisations remained close over the years. In Summer 2013 Doorstep took over full management responsibility for Pre-School. Unfortunately the playgroup closed in 1999 and independent nursey called Little Treasure operated in our site till October 2025.

The provision was designed to meet the needs of our local communities with a focus on outreach work to ensure the take-up of places by hard-to-reach or disadvantaged families and maximising their access to funding opportunities.

My child needs this place - she is really happy here. Me too.
