Fun learning environment in Manchester

“Very friendly my dog came back looking and smelling beautiful”

“Sharon is the ONLY lady who can deal with my Mum and Dad's over excited, over anxious and energetic dog - we wouldn't want to go anywhere else - highly recommend.”

“We have been attending Dolphin babies since the New Year with our baby who was 3 months old at the time that he started his swimming lessons. When choosing a swim school, it was important to us that both my husband and I could attend the session with our baby as he has bad eczema which takes us both to get him ready before and after the session. For this reason, it was also important that the venue has good family changing facilities. When I have contacted Dolphin babies, Becky has been very informative and accomodating. The instructors have all been lovely and as a family, we all look forward to the session each week. My husband goes in the pool with our baby and enjoys the bonding time with him. We love that our baby is developing a vital life long skill and we can already see improvement from his first lesson. Our only wish is that the pool was warmer but that is of no fault of dolphin babies. We always recommend dolphin babies and were pleased when a friend booked the sessions for her baby too.”

“Cannot recommend The Splash Academy enough. We started our little one there at 3 months and confidence has really grown in the water. The staff are so so lovely, we could not fault them at all. They are always super accommodating for any missed lessons and on the occasion we forget something needed for the lesson!”

“I’ve just finished my third session with Katie working on my breaststroke. I was a beginner swimmer who avoided putting my head underwater. I’ve progressed a lot in such a small amount of time with Katie and can now confidently swim multiple head under lengths. I’ve already planned to come back in the new year to begin learning front crawl for the first time. Katie is a brilliant instructor and an even better person!!”

“Archie cannot wait for Wednesdays to come as he LOVES Caterpillar Club Rachel is a lovely and friendly host, informative and the babies love her! Really great class, which has thought me new ways to interact with my little one, we even do some of these at home. Not to mention time meeting new mums for some adult interaction The themed weeks are super cute and great for capturing photo memories Highly recommend for anyone wanting to find a sensory class for their young one, we’ve just booked on for the next season we love it that much! Thank you Rachel!”

“One of the best baby and toddler classes around, Jen is brilliant with the babies and my son and I love going I can't recommend them enough!”

“We have been going to baby sensory Tameside with Sarah since our little boy was 6 weeks old and is now 9 months! I can hands down can say he has developed into such a social little boy because of this class! It’s so engaging and every week is different and structured so well! Would recommend this to anybody!”

“The best sensory class there is! I should know, I have tried them all. Jen is incredible and makes every baby & parent feel so welcomed. The class has such a wide variety for learning new skills and accommodates a wide age bracket. We love you adventure babies & Jen xx”

“Jen is perfect for the job. So enthusiastic and friendly. Great balance of story and play. Looking forward to coming back for another term.”

“All vegetarian community cafe. Very welcoming. Have great homemade soups and pies. Very people friendly”

“I can’t rate Andrea and her amazing animals highly enough. Communication was great, turned up on time, enthralled the kids who have made memories of a lifetime! Our son with severe autism who normally doesn’t like party events loved it as well which was the biggest achievement! I would highly recommend, especially a great idea for SEN kids who don’t like traditional “sensory overload” parties. Thank you so much!!”

“Our little one has been at the swinton setting for 3 and a half years and I couldn’t fault anything! The staff who work here are just amazing and really work with the child and the child’s capabilities which was a big stand out for us! I couldn’t have wished for better! The management team are great, Clare, Lynn & JoJo! Kate, Hannah, Flavia & Danielle in particular are outstanding members of staff and has been wonderful to have them as almost extended family for so long! Will miss these guys and this setting A LOT! HIGHLY RECOMMEND”

“Brilliant school with excellent teaching and as a result fantastic learning”

“My child attends this nursery during the school holidays. My child goes in like he has always been there, the staff are very welcoming and make him feel like part of the Chadderton family. He comes out telling me and showing me all the great things he has been up to. I strongly feel the staff make a positive impact on all children as he talks about the staff when he’s not attending due to being in school. Thankyou Brighter Beginning Chadderton for making it a lot easier to be a full time working mother.”

“Such an excellent school. Fabulous staff. A very caring place.”

“Brilliant dance school for kids of all ages. Relaxed, fun and friendly. All the dance teachers are amazing.”

“These classes are great! I’ve just finished taking my son to the 0-3 month classes which have been so perfectly pitched for his age group. I was nervous about taking my newborn to a class but Natalie is such a great leader and has made such a fun, supportive environment. Cannot recommend these classes enough!”

“It is very fun and amazing. Even as an 11 year old I still go there with friends because it is just very fun. It doesn't charge adults which is great. You can get drinks and food. I absolutely loved the pizza and when I was younger I used to go atleast twice a month as I enjoyed it very much. I wish I was younger again so I can go more with friends and stuff I highly recommend taking your kids here”

“Go on regular basis have done for years, staff are friendly and supportive if you need info or useing equipment. Swimming pool has a good timetable so you can plan when you want to swim. Overall great to use facilities whenever you want.”

“Thank you midwife Adele for taking care of me during my pregnancy, i loved your calm and your care, I received good advice and reassured me when i needed , also the other staff are friendly and supportive”

“My child attends nursery here. The staff are fantastic and so helpful. If there are any problems they will contact you to let you know. They are very strict on security which isn't a bad thing - you just have to make sure you drop off your children on time before the gates are locked.”

“Granddaughter has just started in Reception and she loves it. Staff and facilities are excellent.”

“Staff are lovely and welcoming. Great value for money and more than happy with the care”

“Very friendly and helpfull staff. My daughter is very happy here:)”

“Amazing friendly staff sensory classes are great especially for new mums!”

“Lovely friendly staff. Daughters swimming teacher Fran is awsome with her encouraging and engaging and pushes her when needed. Only issue is with the selfish people who leave their belongings in the cubicles rather than using the lockers of which is there plenty my daughter is a teenager and body aware so prefers to be in a cubicle rather than the shared changing room area.”
