Children's educational programs in Manchester

“Both my kids (1 1/2 and 3 1/2 years old) currently attend SCAMPs and they love it. The staff are very professional, caring to the children and friendly to us as parents. There are always so many different activities for the children to do including a good balance of creative, physical, musical activities etc. You can follow the progress of your children through their learning journals and continual feedback is given daily. There is plenty of outdoor space for the children and they have recently done up the outside with some new play installations. They are always looking for ways to improve which is a great culture to have. The setting on the edge of the park is lovely and great for the kids to watch the lawn mowers and 'tractors!'”

“Excellent well run mini theatre, we love the productions they put on.”

“I had my daughter’s second birthday here and everything about it was perfect! I also have a 4 year old with Down Syndrome and finding a suitable play area what he can do confidently is very difficult. Baby boom is the only place I feel at ease knowing he can play with his sister and friends safely. 100% would recommend for classes, group play and definitely birthdays!”

“School of Play has been awesome for our daughter. It is safe, secure, she is fully engaged with the activities and comes home smiling about her day. Would certainly recommend.”

“Last night's show was well presented it involved children of all ages and abilities who all displayed confidents.”

“My daughter loves the junior circus skills classes on Saturday mornings.”

“I recommend this nursery, very friendly staff and management, the kids are always happy. They do potty training and all. My daughter has been with the Nursery since she was 2. The best of the best. I would give 100 stars if it were possible”

“My twins have loved their time at Mini Miners nursery. It didn't take them long to settle in as all the staff are lovely. The staff are great with communication, keeping parents updated in the WhatsApp group, sharing pictures of the multiple activities which the children have been up to. I'll be sad to see my twins leave this week and I'm sure my twins will miss it too, as they've always looked forward to attending each day and always come home telling me all the lovely things they've been up to with their friends. Thank you so much Mini Miners ❤️”

“I am so pleased I chose this unique nursery for my daughter. She loves her days here, even when she is a bit apprehensive to leave me the ladies are so lovely and quick to update the baby's days app with pictures of all the interesting things she is getting up to, which puts my mind at ease. The nursery has such a lovely feel to it, different to other nurseries in the area. The updates you receive on the app throughout the day are reassuring which are then backed up by the big smile on my daughters face when I pick her up and the stories she has to tell me about her day. The singing, painting and puddings after lunch are some of her favourite things. I would definitely recommend the Yellow Door nursery, Michele and her Team!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of my son, his now more better and more independent. I am so happy so sending my child here to Born2win day nursery and to the amazing team in toddlers room. I love you all”

“Lovely nursery. Our little one has loved the environment and has built up great relationships with the other children and the staff. The nursery is a great setting for children to explore and the staff make a special effort to get to know each childs wants/needs/preferences. Would recommend!”

“I have just finished the term studying A1.2 at Cervantes and plan to pick it back up in autumn as I really enjoyed it. The classes were good and Ana was such a great teacher. The only negative I have is that the library books are only available to rent for half the semester.”

“I cannot recommend BSA enough! Since joining BSA 16 years ago, I am still a part of the family now. It is a dance school where confidence is built and friends are made for life. With amazing teachers and opportunities, it is no wonder I couldn’t wait to go back and join adult tap. If you’re thinking about sending your child to dance, there really is nowhere better than Bates Stage Academy!”

“Absolutely love being a part of such an amazing cheer family. My daughter has been coming since she is 3 (now 5) and her confidence, ability and self belief has progressed massively!! For her to experience such an amazing and lovely cheer family and have so many friendships shes developed whilst here is all I could of asked for. Also as a parent to be apart of it is brilliant and nothing beats comp days!! Love love love!!!!”

“My 2 girls have been dancing here since the school opened and they absolutely love it! There are so many classes to choose from, starting at baby classes for the little ones to acro dance class and street dance and then freestyle and Latin too! The teachers and principal are so welcoming and really do pay so much attention to all the children and make them feel like they can achieve anything. Couldn’t recommend it enough!”

“Can not recommend this Academy enough!! In only 6 months, the improved confidence, strength and respect in this 4 year old is jaw dropping!! The team here, especially Mr Jordan are outstanding!! Thank you for all you do!!”

“My 6-year-old daughter took part in a 4-day holiday club at Little Voices this summer. Despite it being her first time there and not knowing any of the other children beforehand, she came running out on the first day with a big smile, excitedly sharing stories about her "new friends!" At the end of the week, parents were invited to watch the children's performance, and it was truly remarkable! Every child had a chance to shine in their own unique way, which was delightful to watch. Little Voices is such a nurturing environment and there was absolutely no pressure on the children over the 4 days, as some might worry about; the focus was on having fun—and my daughter certainly did that! We will be back, for sure. Thank you, Laura...you are amazing!”

“My son’s been attending here now since just after the Easter half term this year. My sons developed in so many ways , he can be quite stubborn at the best of times , standards here are super high and work with every single child needs no matter how high or how low. Staff are incredibly on form with teaching and how they run things and have a very highly standard of professionalism which you can see. They are open and honest with each parent . Reporting back each day if anything needs to be addressed or reported. There on form with everything. Highly recommended nursery for your child to go too especially if your wanting a nursery for your child with such high standards of learning and still at the same time as your child being able to still be a child at the same time”

“My son started at the nursery a few weeks ago and he is really enjoying his days at the nursery. I have seen a huge change in him in terms of settling in at the nursery. He is so happy, comfortable and confident. The staff as a whole are so lovely and amazing with the children. So far I am happy with my choice of nursery for my son and wish I came across this nursery sooner.”

“My son started here at 9 months old and settled so well into the baby room. Becky was so caring and tried to adapt everything to his usual routine and had a great understanding of his likes and dislikes. The key worker system worked brilliant. Michelle knows every child throughout the nursery and is always there for support.”

“Great place for a swim, lake is gorgeous! No changing rooms so don't forget your dry robe or a large towel haha!”

“Amazing swimming school ,my son has been with splash stars for a few months now and the difference is incredible,we came from a different company and he hated swimming and was very scared ,now he looks forward to his weekly swim lessons with zoe,who is amazing Highly recomend”

“Shelly managed to fit me in last minute on a Saturday afternoon after the salon I was booked to go to let me down. I expected a bit of a simple, quick service being later but Shelly was friendly, listened to what kind of style I like and took her time. The result was lovely, and such a contrast to my previous experience at the other salon. All the ladies there seem to genuinely help each other, and created a lovely atmosphere. I’ll be back again soon ☺️”

“Had a great time at an adult panto. The venue was fab great drinks and pizza too! No such thing as a bad seat at this venue.”

“Went to see a stage play The Father. Tremendous show, very well presented. Lovely theatre. Highly recommended.”

“An interesting presentation at Hallé St Peter's,held during Japan week in Manchester. We learned about the Hallé connection with Japan with musicians & conductors. After which there was a Samurai display in the grounds infront of the Makers Market. An excellent day.”

“As a healthcare professional who visits the nursery regularly, I just want to mention how pleased I have been on my visits. Lovely staff with a genuine enjoyment of working with young children. Staff are well trained on how to support children. I have seen good examples of staff implementing strategies to help support development. The nursery has a good learning environment and the staff always have creative activities set up. It is amazing to see the care, kindness and compassion they demonstrate every single day. Friendly atmosphere that is welcoming, approachable and a pleasant place to visit.”

“Such a great place - my son had his 8th birthday party here. Staff very helpful from the start, the coach was fantastic, everyone loved it! Highly recommend - thank you again!”

“Absolutely fabulous night watching the production of 'Dad's Army'. Characters were so true to TV adaptation. Singing WW2 songs in the audience really added to the ambience.”

“This nursery is truly amazing! Both of my children attend here, and the staff, managers, and owners consistently go above and beyond to ensure the children are well cared for while having fun and learning. As a parent, seeing my children enter the nursery full of smiles and excitement to play and learn makes a world of difference. I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough!”
