Parental support in Manchester

“I can wholeheartedly recommend Soothe Children's Clinic. Both our boys have had issues with hearing, speech, and behavioral problems. They were both treated at Soothe and we were so happy to see incredible changes in both our boy's - relief from physical pain, development in hearing and speech, and improvements in their emotional wellbeing. Initially, we weren't sure whether the boys would behave, during the treatments, but with expert help they were made to feel comfortable & relaxed. Overall we were very happy with all aspects of the treatment & service.”

“Well done Yazid, you're encouraging Hazel. Hahahahahaha.”

“Emma is a great therapist with a lot of knowledge and skills to help improve a mental health. She's very warm and positive character and I could not find a better one for my son. It brought a lot of benefits for him and me as his mother. Strongly recommend !”

“I love it so much, can't wait to try again”

“My two children absolutely love First steps, they have been there since they were 8 months and 2 attending a couple of days and now 2 and 4 attending full time Monday to Friday. Every room they’ve been in and moved up into has been brillliant. They have lots of outside time and lots of structured activities as well as free play too, they come home with so many things they’ve made that they’re so proud of! Too many to name but all staff have been amazing, I’ve seen mostly the same faces the whole time as turnover is so low and my children have adored everybody, they’ve made me feel so comfortable and confident leaving them knowing they’re so well looked after, there’s a real family feel. Ian, Luke and Tina have been brilliant, so organised in their management of everything and so helpful with flexibility where I’ve needed. So glad my kids have spent their first years here!”

“Best place in whole Manchester. Teachers are so lovely and truly love what they do. Highly recommend it!”

“Lovely pre-school. My daughter joined at 2 and settled really quickly thanks to Clare and her amazing team. Her speech and counting has come on leaps and bounds in the 3 months she has been at Little Bird’s Nest.”

“Our son started willow tree in October 2021 and has just graduated this week. From start to finish his time at willow tree has been so easy for us we have never had any worries about him there, its a fun, playful, nurturing and educational environment, from digging worms with eco warriors to learning sports and dance every week. The girls go above and beyond to make every child (and parents) feel so welcome. Everyday they will follow the childrens interest and allow them to pursue them further, such as our son loved Space and learnt lots of new facts from a day in Willow tree coming home with crafts that he chose to do. They are wonderful in every way and we are sad that our son’s time has come to an end at willow tree but they have made sure he is more than ready for reception. I would and will be doing recommending Willow tree pre school to anyone looking for an outstanding preschool.”

“Both of my children went to this nursery from being 5 months old to starting school. They absolutely loved it, as did I. I never had a complaint, the staff were all brilliant and nothing was ever too much. All nurseries are there to keep our children safe whilst providing them with growth, development, and skills for their lives, but Wells House excels at this!”

“Fab pre school our daughter went there and loved every day she went. The staff are kind, loving and have a brilliant understanding of how to get the best out of your child. Couldn't recommend enough”

“Lovely brand new nursery, staff are excellent and very friendly. Since joining our daughter is so much happier attending this nursery and now looks forward to going to nursery each day.”

“My sister used Homelands for her children and when our first came along my wife visited and was really impressed with it so we signed up. I cannot speak highly enough of this place; it has been a wonderful experience for our 1st, 2nd and 3rd child. Obviously all the child development stuff is a key metric and they have all progressed brilliantly during their time there, but for me it is secondary to the loving environment that is so very evident at Homelands. There are so many nice staff there, and even more that have passed through at times; they have a knack for selecting dedicated, caring and professional people. There is core leadership team that have been there throughout our children's time there that I have found very re-assuring, and I will be sad when our youngest leaves because I see them as sort of an extended family! With Homelands your children will be safe and loving hands. ***From Jan 2020 you can drop off at 730 as well (rather than 8)***”

“The nursery has just been rated as 'GOOD' by Ofsted in all categories. Our children are cared for well and treated as individuals. Parents are kept up to date about their child's development and learning through daily conversations and through the tapestry system.”

“The best preschool!! My little girl attends here and she has the best time, she’s always so excited to go in the mornings and always tells me what a great time she’s had with the biggest smile on her face which as a parent means a lot and shows how great the staff are with her. The owner and staff are all incredibly friendly & make you feel welcome. The preschool is always nice & clean and well organised! Sharon the owner will do everything she can to accommodate your needs as a family. I recommend this place to everyone who’s got young kids looking for the next step before school.”

“My child has been going here for over 3 years and soon to be going to school. I've always felt he's being well looked after, having fun, learning, and safe. The older kids performed a Xmas play last year and we were all really proud to see how hard they'd worked. The start and finish times can be built around your schedule, and they've always been there if I've needed to book an extra day. The kids are well fed with lots of varied and nice freshly cooked meals. We've been very happy here.”

“We could not recomend Children's Choice enough! The have looked after my son since he was 6 months old and the care and love they show him is what every parent would want! They keep me updated on what he's up to and anything I ask for for his care they support! They have recently been doing big brother lessons with him which has been incredible with our newborn who I know will also be in the best hands when he starts there! Thank you for everything you do!”
