Play based learning methods in Manchester

“Broadway Day Nursery is absolutely FANTASTIC. Sarah, Becky & the wonderful team of aunties are just amazing and my daughter has been so well cared for since starting in December 2023. The settling in sessions when my daughter first started nursery were brilliant and I knew from the first day that this was the perfect setting for us. On starting nursery my daughter had a ‘cows milk protein allergy’ and every measure was taken to ensure that her allergy requirements were met by the nursery staff, the nursery even purchased a certain ‘coconut milk’ especially for her. My daughter has thrived since attending nursery, she’s learned so much and looks forward to going. I have recently been so impressed by the nursery’s commitment to supporting my daughter with her potty training too, creating a reward chart for her (mimicking what we had done at home) and keeping us updated with her progress. Each day Broadway Day Nursery provide an overview of activities and document what children have been doing via a parent/carer app which I love, and this really gave peace of mind when my daughter first started nursery. My second child will start in the Bunnikins baby room next year and I’m already excited for her nursery journey. I honestly cannot recommend this nursery enough, they go the extra mile and there is a real ‘family feel’ about the setting. Thank you aunties for everything you do!”

“I went here in the early 90s, before starting Parkfield Primary School. I absolutely loved it and have many fond memories. If it's anything like it used to be then I'd give it 5 stars.”

“This is a fabulous nursery, my grandson who is disabled really enjoyed his time there, and he really came on well, the meals are amazing, and the staff are really lovely and very caring, would highly recommend this place, it’s a shame they don’t do for over 5 years .”

“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.”

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

“My boys absolutely loved their time at Raglan Road. The staff were like extended mothers to my boys and always there to listen if I needed to. There was always great communication and lots of well planned out activities for the boys. I’d highly recommend the playgroup. You need to go and visit and see them for yourself.”

“My eldest daughter has been coming her since she was 18 months old! She is now 3 and has excelled within her development and has good relationships with all the staff at Little Giggles. My youngest daughter was 9 months when she started in January this year, she is loving nursery life that is clear from all the videos and photos which have been published on the parentzone app which is amazing to see how your child is doing at nursery!”

“My little boy started at Dunky's when he was 7 months and I was so worried about how he was going to cope. The staff were so amazing with him and I could tell instantly that he was in good hands. He has come out of his shell and he loves the days he gets to go in. I feel at ease everyday knowing that he is in safe and capable hands with people that do care for him genuinely. I can never recommend Dunky's enough.”

“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”

“I love the deans because its fun. From Lucy Deans school”

“Both of my children attend Little Explorers! I have nearly 3 years experience here and have loved every minute and so have my children! The bonds they have made with staff as well as friends have been amazing! Both of my children have dietary issues and I have felt very much supported with these and any issues with changing their routines have been met with complete support and professionalism! Would absolutely recommend”

“Early Steps Nursery were brilliant with our son. They went above and beyond to support his needs and development. There's a lovely homely/family atmosphere with staff who are very experienced and really care. Can't praise them enough and would highly recommend this nursery.”

“Since my granddaughter has been attending Fernbees, she has flourished. For the first time going to a nursery, she gets excited when she knows it’s nursery day and runs from the car to the door. She’s made some great friends and close bonds with the staff, and I can’t thank them enough for the time and care they give her. The experiences she gets at this nursery are second to none. I would recommend Fernbees to everyone and do so often.”

“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.”

“I’m so happy and content with the care & support Tiddlywinks give to my daughter each and every day. The staff go above and beyond to promote her development. My eldest also goes to their after school club, which makes it’s so much easier collecting them both together after work.”

“My little was very shy and not very confident before starting at tiny tots. It only took a week or 2 and she had come out of her shell so much and over a year later still continues to thrive at this nursery! Thanks to every one at tiny tots!”

“What a lovely bunch of people. Our child thoroughly love s his nursery, his key worker Patrick is an absolute legend, as are the rest of the team.. I thoroughly recommend this nursery.”

“My nephew goes there. Amazing school.”

“My daughter has been here for just under 2 years and I couldn’t put in to words how happy and grateful we are to CDN thelwall, every room she has been in she has adored all the team and they treat all the kids like they would want their own to be treated, the compassion, dignity and respect they give to the children and the knowledge they hold creates the perfect environment for all children, I will be so sad when she moves to school because i know how much she loves it here. Thank you to all the team x”

“I had a great time there! Loved all the staff and made so many friends”

“My daughter has attended at this nursery for 3 years now, she is always so happy to come in to the settings! We have always had a lovely experience with the staff team! They’re very friendly, caring and supportive. My child has learned so much during this time with them! Would definitely recommend to everyone! The nursery looks so nice and clean.. and the outside area looks great too. I’m so grateful for this lovely team. Xx”

“My daughter has been attending this nursery for 3.5 years. Today was her last day as she starts school from next week. Can’t even begin to explain how great this nursery has been for my daughter and for us as parents. I have seen how much my daughter has developed since her first day. Initially she was very unsettled and cried a lot which is probably the norm for a lot of children. But the staff here knew exactly how to make her feel at ease and she quickly became familiar and comfortable with everyone and the environment. She has learnt a lot and has become a very confident child. Thanks to everybody at this nursery who cared for her and played a big part in her development. Every person in this nursery is amazing, caring and so nurturing which is exactly what you want. Though my daughter was sad to leave (as we are too), we are greatful she got to experience this in such an early part of her life. Thanks to all the staff and management of this nursery for such a great experience. I highly recommend this nursery if you are looking for one. I recommended other family members to this nursery who have had the same experience.”

“I went here as a kid and it was fun”
