“My son has been coming here since he was 1 and is now in his pre-school year at the nursery. Couldn't be happier with our experience, majority of staff are mature and all with significant experience. Extremely caring staff and a lovely large garden all the children go out in twice a day.”

“Excellent school with friendly staff.”

“Our daughter still remembers Blue Skies over 10 years after leaving. I wasn't keen on sending her to a nursery at all after seeing many nurseries that had too few staff and too many kids, but this place was perfect and I'd highly recommend it.”

“This is such a lovely Nursery. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor activities and really make an effort to create extra fun days, such as supporting Children In Need and holiday activities. They keep you up to date on everything your child has done that day on their app, whilst also providing a quick debrief upon pickup. They have security cameras in every room and all the staff are so lovely. I would recommend Ninas Nursery to anyone in Offerton. I didn't have one single issue whilst my son was there. I think they run a tight ship and take great care in who they hire. Outstanding 5/5.”

“My cousin goes there, and he says it's great.”

“All the staff have looked after our son for a long period of time and he has always come out with a big smile on his face. They also have a garden which some nurserys dont which is a plus and lots of room indoors. Would recommend.”

“What a nursery! Willow Tree, the management and the team surpassed all expectations. Both our children went there, flourished and made lovely little friends. Having always been dubious of nurseries, we made the decision to move our little girl from a childminder to their pre-school so she could get used to a bigger group setting before starting school. Within a few weeks, we wished we’d made the change a lot sooner. She LOVED IT! When we had our second child, we had no hesitation about where he would go. Nancy the manager worked some magic to make sure we had the days we needed. It quickly became a home from home for our little boy. It soon became apparent that he had delayed speech and needed some extra support in that area. The team were so proactive and put a programme of one on one activities in place to help his development and made all the necessary referrals and kept us in the loop with rehaul at face to face meetings every step of the way. We can’t thank them enough for their guidance and support. They work hard to involve the parents in all the special occasions that crop up throughout the year, from Easter bonnet parades to Mother/ Fathers Day Walks. Just lovely! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Willow Tree Private Day Care Nursery if you’re considering options. They’re an absolutely smashing bunch and the happy little faces that greet you every time you open the door is a testament to that.”

“Outstanding Nursery!! Come and Have a look around, small homely nursery where children always come first.”

“I am happy for my daughters have and had a place in the school. Really Good school.”

“it is the best school that I have ever been to in England .THE BEST!!!!!!!”

“We absolutely love Grosvenor Nursery! As parents from Hong Kong raising our son here in the UK, it means a lot to find a place where he is not only safe, but truly cared for. The teachers here are warm, patient, and genuinely care about each child’s well-being. One lovely surprise was when they gave my son a bilingual book in Cantonese and English — such a thoughtful gift that really touched our hearts. It shows how inclusive and considerate the staff are, making sure every child feels seen and supported. If you’re looking for a nursery where your child will be cared for like family, this is the place. Highly recommended to all parents!”

“My daughter really enjoys this nursery and the staff are really good with the children”

“I would highly recommend this nursery, went to visit the nursery, it was very clean, welcoming staff with smiles, the manager was lovely, showed me around and told me everything from accommodating dietary needs, the meals looked lovely on the menus, she explained absolutely everything. Thankyou”

“Really recommend Pear Tree Montessori Nursery. They genuinely care about your little one, my 2 children were well look after, proper early year educated, and most important really happy in Pear Tree Montessori Nursery. The management from top to bottom is very well designed. Re-located my younger one only because of save school run time with 2 different school directions. I would recommend this nursery, and thank you Pear Tree Montessori Nursery.”

“Our daughter absolutely loves it here, she's come on so much. All of the staff are so friendly. Would highly recommend.”

“Excellent day nursey. Sent my daughter here September 2019. Staff are really nice and my daughter loves it here. Would definitely recommend.”

“Great setting with truly caring, kind and professional staff. My 3 year old has been attending since 2022 and has learned many skills and developed into a cheeky, happy preschooler during this time. I like that parents are updated via an app and private Facebook group and that children make greeting cards for most holidays and celebrations. Children are also taken for little adventures around the neighborhood. I really appreciate and respect the fact that children and their families are encouraged to celebrate and represent their culture and that there is a non-judgemental and friendly attitude towards all parents. Having had bad experiences in my area with other settings, I feel especially grateful for finding Ducklings. They have handled delicate situations with grace, patience and understanding. I am proud to call Ducklings staff my child's second family.”

“My kids had an amazing experience there! The staff is incredibly kind and attentive, making it a wonderful place for them.”

“My daughter is just about to finish after two years at First Steps and her older sister attended 5 years ago. I cannot recommend this wonderful pre school enough. The staff to child ratio is excellent and the children thrive on the smaller group sizes and 1:1 time they get to spend with their key workers. The outdoor space is fantastic, and utilised daily for different activities. Weekly visits from Footy Tots and Diddi Dance also give the children those extra opportunities to try something different in an environment they feel safe and secure in. Helen and her team have years of experience in pre school learning and wellbeing and this shines through in everything they do for the children!”

“An incredible child care setting. Staff are amazing and so kind , very organised and passionate about this outdoor style of working.”

“Oughtrington preschool is a nurturing home from home setting. Both of my children have attended this preschool and have thrived. The staff are professional, friendly and caring and would highly recommend.”

“Auntie Stephs is an amazing playgroup with outstanding employees that go the extra mile to help the children settle and grow. I saw such a massive change in my child’s behaviour and growth after a few days. My child absolutely loves attending the playgroup and the innovative activities that do on a daily basis. I highly recommend sending your children to Auntie Stephs!”
