Outdoor educational spaces in Manchester

“My daughter has been going to Space Station since she was 14 months old. She has been very happy in all the rooms from babies through to Waddlers and Toddlers. She loves playing and dancing with her little friends and the staff make a really big effort with lots of great activities and themed weeks. Kim - the manager - is always very responsive, helpful and accommodating and was from our very first visit to look around. My daughter used reusable nappies and staff were happy to accommodate these too. I would definitely recommend Space Station!”

“We absolutely adore Siân's SEN Holiday Forest School Sessions. We joined in the summer of 2023 and quickly fell in love with the holiday sessions. It can be quite challenging when our usual group activities come to a halt, as our entire family thrives on structure and routine. Our daughter has an immense passion for the outdoors and revels in any messy or sensory play. If it were up to her, she'd make the great outdoors her permanent home! Right from day one, Sian extended a warm welcome and dedicated time to truly understand how our daughter prefers to engage. She has patiently built a strong connection with our daughter at her own pace. The activities provided are nothing short of amazing, especially for our daughter, who immerses herself fully in sensory experiences (as you can see in the photos!). Furthermore, the lunch and snacks offered here are fantastic. Our daughter can be quite particular about her safe and unsafe foods, but every visit here has her enjoying the delicious lunch provided. We sincerely appreciate the tremendous effort you put into creating safe and nurturing environments for children with special educational needs. ❤️”

“CITY performed well, Bunny did great becoming the first to net over a hundred goals. Fugino played really well getting possession taking the ball up the wing and then putting some brilliant crosses in. However Bunny got the first goal but later, Fugi got a well deserved goal. A few near misses and two goals ruled offside seemed to take the heart out of Villa, and City ran amok.”

“From the moment we walked through the doors, Tiny Steps has exceeded all of our expectations! The staff made us feel welcome, supported, and confident in the care they provide. The nurturing environment, thoughtful curriculum, and genuine love shown to the children have been outstanding. Our child has grown emotionally, socially, and intellectually during their time here. Each day is filled with engaging activities, outdoor play, and lots of learning through fun. The staff are not only professional and well-trained, but also warm, approachable, and truly invested in each child’s development. What sets this nursery apart is the level of individual attention and care. The communication with parents is excellent — we always feel informed and included. Most importantly, our child is excited to go every morning and comes home smiling and full of stories. We’re incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful place. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and enriching start to their child’s early years.”

“My daughters have been going here for 2 and half years now. One of my daughters has quite complex medical needs and the nursery staff couldnt be more helpful with her. Always asking for updates on how to best support her.”

“Just Completed the Powerboat level two course and i can highly recommend trafford water sports centre!

I would happily recommend this course to everyone! You won't be disappointed! A++”

“My children have been going to Wild Space (weekly) for a couple of years now and show no signs of wanting to stop, which with a teen to please is testament itself to how great Wild Space Forest School is! Trudy is a fantastic leader and the whole place has a lovely welcoming, friendly vibe as well as a beautiful position conveniently placed in the heart of beautiful Diggle. Throughly recommend.”

A hundred mormotions flow through me in pure excitement just because it's morbin time , the schools religion is morbianity which I love ,Binley mega chippy is 2 minutes away so after school I can buy a fresh morbius meal”

“This place is 5*. The attention to detail and the quality of care is incredible. We have used the Ark for 2 children, one has since left and gone onto primary school but goes to space during school holidays from time to time. We find incredible value for money and the long opening hours really suit us. Would highly recommend to anyone.”

“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.”

“We had our 2 year olds birthday party here and it was excellent! The place is so clean and tidy, and the staff go around tidying as you play. The staff are also so helpful and will go out of their way to help, for example I forgot a candle for the cake and they managed to go and find it. They also managed to find some parry bags to put the slices of cake in as I hadn't thought of. We had an excellent time and 100% recommend. Our friends at the party were also commenting how lovely the place was. Thank you for a lovey day :)”

“Not used in the conventional sense but two kind guys from the scout hut helped my son when he was knocked off his motorbike outside the scout hut. They stayed with him until I got there, gave him an ice pack and helped move his bike.”

“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.”

“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!”

“Our little girl loves going to Inside Out nursery and has bonded really well with the staff. The kids get a lot of outdoor play and we get nice photo updates of what she’s been up to! I feel confident leaving her knowing she’s well looked after and I can tell Julie, Sophie and the whole team genuinely care about the kids”

“Kidzrus Monton is an incredible nursery. It’s so reassuring as a parent to know both my girls are in such a nurturing and loving environment. They have both flourished at Kidzrus, developing their confidence and learning new skills which has been amazing to see. All the team are amazing and their dedication to the children is outstanding. I couldn’t have asked for a better nursery to watch my girls grow and thrive”
