Developmental centers in Manchester

“All the staff are so welcoming and my daughter loves going to nursery. Brilliant nursery she's come on loads since starting in September!!”

“Great company with excellent values”

“My baby girl attends Oakland’s and I have nothing but positive things to say. The staff are all lovely and very welcoming, you can clearly see lovely attachments between the children and the staff. My baby is very happy here and I feel like it’s a second home, it’s reassuring to know that she is in a nurturing and friendly environment. Lisa the manager is so approachable, she is always available for the parents, she is friendly and has a real passion for her role. I wouldn’t dream of sending my daughter anywhere else, I would highly recommend Oakland’s nursery.”

“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”

“I’d like to give a huge shout-out to Claire in the preschool room at Kids Planet. She is absolutely fantastic in her role, bringing warmth, enthusiasm, and an extra level of understanding thanks to her studies in child psychology. This deeper insight is evident in the way she supports and nurtures the children, always providing thoughtful and individualised care. Claire has worked one-to-one with my child, offering encouragement and helping to build their confidence in various interests and activities. Her dedication, patience, and ability to connect with children make her an invaluable asset to Kids Planet. I’d also like to recognise Jo, another outstanding caregiver. She is kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in the children’s wellbeing, creating a safe and happy environment where they can thrive.”

“Brilliant staff, very professional, kind and good with kids. My child enjoyed her time at Domalo and I would recommend them to anyone. Excellent service.”

““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.””

“Very friendly team who are very welcoming. My kids love coming here!”

“My daughter made a great progress with aunties help. Fantastic staffs! Good Nursery.”

“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.”

“Never doubt Hayley and her staff, my little boys come out smiling every day”

“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.”

“I can't recommend this tuition centre enough! My child has been attending for a year now and his grades have improved dramatically. The tutors are knowledgeable, patient and supportive, and my child always comes away from each lesson feeling confident and motivated.”

“My daughter has been at this nursery for nearly two years and is flourishing. She is so happy and confident and it feels like all the staff really care about the work they do and the children they look after. It has a great family feeling. They always looks like they're having great fun, with lots of planned activities, messy play and outdoor time, but there are also dedicated learning plans in place and we receive regular updates on her progress and meeting developmental milestones. The building is warm, welcoming, safe and colourful, and we like the smaller group ethos, where it feels like the children receive plenty of attention and are supported in their interests. Communication is great, from management updates and parents' evenings right through to daily activity logs on the app. They also send sweet activities home, so last week we received a parcel of cake making ingredients to make a lemon drizzle cake! I'd definitely recommend Little Learners to anyone looking for a nursery in the Chorlton/Stretford area.”

“I visited here for the ‘Dance like a mother’ sessions and they were great. The lady on the front desk is warm and friendly and Sian from DLAM is a great teacher, very gentle to all postpartum mums. The sessions are fun and you want to come back week-on-week.”

“Great school wish I went there from west end your best buddies”

“The team is always helpful and friendly. Always lovely and clean to!”

“My twins came to this nursery kirsty is amazing nurturing helped them grow to the little boys they all the staff where amazing thank you if I could give more stars I would”
