Child development centres in Manchester

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about this preschool! Manager Terri is truly exceptional—she goes out of her way to make sure my child feels safe, loved, and cared for, while also offering me so much support and reassurance as a parent. It’s clear she puts her heart into everything she does. And then there’s Izzie, who is just a gem! Her warmth and dedication shine through, and I’m so touched that she’s even learning the language my child speaks at home to connect with them on a deeper level. This preschool feels like a second home for my child, and I’m so grateful for their amazing team! Agnes xxx”

“My daughter has been going since she was 18minths old. She starts school this year and is still going. She loves it. Everyone is friendly the facilities are great and you get so much more flexibility with government hours because they're private. Staff are a little disorganized but no complaints other than that. Would recommend to anyone”

“In just one year this school transformed my Nephew and Niece into two clever, confident and articulate individuals who last year could not read or write and could not add up two numbers together because of the previous lack of schooling, you could never expect this of a school but, abbey hey have gone the extra mile and pulled out resources to do this, amazing.”

“I went here as a kid and it was fun”

“mate, the teachers here are epic; wanna know why, because they can actually deal with behavior whereas other schools wait until the last second and yell at children. :thumbsup:”

“This is an agency that goes above and beyond.”

“Great nursery - Very friendly and helpful staff, my daughter loved it.”

“Brilliant, family orientated school. High standards and amazing staff!”

“Fantastic school all my kids went here”

“Really good nursery very friendly staff”

““My son started at Giggle and Grow in June 2024. Within a couple of weeks he came on leaps and bounds. The staff were amazing and really helped my son settle in well. The staff went above and beyond & provided a safe haven for my son to thrive and gave him many learning opportunities. Within a couple of weeks he had learnt to spell out his name and learnt to write it. This opportunity was provided everyday along with learning simple shapes, counting, colour recognition all part of the school transition. My son was able to join in with Graduation and was learning the topic “ starting school” which made this transition very easy for Ruari.” Ruari would prefer to Giggle and Grow as “Sunshine school” which speaks volumes itself. He would happily run into Nursery and didn’t hesitate on looking back. The Management are really supportive and welcoming they provide updates via online learning journey and weekly updates on my child’s progress. The outstanding care and learning opportunities this nursery provides is simply amazing. Giggle and Grow has excellent parent partnership and is a very much family feel nursery. We really enjoyed our son’s time here and can’t thank the staff and the management team for everything they have done for our little boy. The consistency and familiarity from all the staff is amazing and the staff give 110% to ensure every child is getting the best learning and care opportunities” 100% recommend Giggle and Grow.””

“I've been a governor at Lark Hill Nursery School for the past 3 years, so I get to see what goes on behind the scenes as well as what families experience. I am so impressed by the staff at the nursery and the wonderful supportive learning environment they have created. Despite being rated Ofsted Outstanding for over 10 years, they are always looking at how they can improve and stay up to date with best practice. The wellbeing of children is at the heart of everything they do.”

“Lovely school, loved delivering first aid training to the staff. Friendly and welcoming”

“Really happy with the outcome of meeting this morning. Alot of positive came out it. My kids are doing very well at the school especially my youngest who's come on so much since he started at oasis. The reception staff do an amazing job. Thankyou to all staff and keep up good work.”

“Both my girls Willow (age 3) and Piper (1) go to Little Giggles Great Moor and I wouldnt have them go anywhere else. Willow joined in the recommendation from my sister and I'm so happy. The staff are wonderful, willow joined from a year old and has learnt and developed so much. Piper has just recently joined and I was nervous about having to drop her off (during this pandemic) and not being able to see her react to being left alone. But with the help of the staff at Great Moor, I was instantly settled knowing that she was good and happy, Piper loves coming to nursery and her skills have progressed so much since going. I would recommend the friendly loving staff and nursery all day. I look forward to Willow & Piper returning in september. Thank you x”

“My son has been going to this nursery for over a year and I cannot fault them on anything. The staff are lovely and are so supportive, my son has come on now so much since attending here. He was so shy at one point and they have helped him come out his shell so much. They've helped me with the foods he likes, they have actually helped me with his fruits and everything! Everytime I go in they are always so active with the kids. My son doesnt stop speaking about Nursery and is always excited to go in. Erin & Saara are doing an amazing job and I even decided to keep him in an extra year instead of sending him to school nursery. I honestly cannot fault them on anything, they have been amazing with me & my son and I have no complaints.”

“It's the best school you will ever and I mean ever go to.”

“Great school and my son disabled and can't walk”

“Great place for kids. Karen and staff are very professional. Great activities our son loved it. Would definitely recommend too any parents for their little cherubs”

“Great school with great staff and great facilities.Everythings just great.”

“Really pleased we choose Kids Planet for our daughter. The photos we get through the day are much appreciated and she comes home with new words or songs regularly. They have also been supportive of us using reusable nappies and I know that not all nurseries are.”

“Fantastic nurseries and after school clubs.”

“Amazing nursery. My youngest child has just started in January. This is now my 2nd child to attending stepping stones. This setting is amazing and the level of care is fantastic. Both my children have been so happy, which has made my life so much easier, as a parent it’s very hard to leave your children but the staff at stepping stones always make this so much easier for me. My children love the Stepping stones staff, my eldest child who now attends primary school still wants to stay with the ladies on drop off and collection. Thank you for all you do for my daughter.”

“Amazing nursey. Both our kids went right through their nursery phase and got great care. Sheila and the staff worked tirelessly for the kids and both had many years of happiness there. Highly recommended.”
