Well being services in Prestwich

“Very gods service and quality haircuts”

“Always amazing service! Vets are great! Roby was in to see Keisuke for his eyes and he was amazing with him! Very clear advice and costings! Peter is also under the care of Avneet for his heart condition and he is always amazing!”

“Shirley is not only amazing at what she does, she is an amazing person that really shows how caring she is towards other people’s feelings. She went above and beyond to help me understand why I was feeling the way I was, whilst making me feel completely relaxed and comfortable throughout the process. She has definitely helped to give me a more positive outlook on situations and since seeing Shirley I have noticed massive improvements in my self esteem. I can’t thank her enough for all that she has helped me with and there is no one that I would recommend more!”

“I’ve had a few different advanced treatments with Natalia, including microneedling and pigmentation removal, and the results have been fantastic. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and always makes me feel comfortable throughout the process. The clinic has a great atmosphere and Natalia really cares about delivering the best results. Highly recommend!”

“Dr Hibbert performed the procedure on my 12 day old daughter today after 3 midwives could not agree if my daughter did in fact have tongue tie. His assessment was professional and comprehensive and he discussed every option available to us. The procedure was performed with proficiency and care and my anxieties were reassured by the directions and advice provided. The after effect was incredible, I had immediate relief of any previous feeding pain/discomfort and my daughter's latch and ability to feed clearly improved. I would recommend Dr Hibbert to anyone seeking support with tongue tie even just for a clear and concise assessment and professional opinion.”

“First time having physio and Lisa was amazing. So kind and attentive, accommodating and understanding. Thank you.”

“Great place. Friendly staff who listen to what you want and most importantly a good haircut!”

“We absolutely love this Pharmacy, they go above and beyond to help, best move we made, delivery man is amazing as is all the staff, helpful pleasant and accommodating, thank you”

“When investigating local childcare options for our daughter, we were stuck between the homely setting of a childminder and the consistency of a nursery - to us Swan’s offered the best of both worlds... The setting As a small setting it has a real family feel and impressed us from the outset with Nicola (Nursery Manager) showing real pride in touring us. There are three rooms: Baby, Tweenies and Pre-School and all are well loved and maintained with changing seasonal displays, toys and activities. There is an outdoor garden area that offers great stimulation - it isn't the largest but they do make great use of it! Overall, it's an inclusive and diverse community atmosphere. The staff All of the staff are excellent and the majority are extremely experienced. Management have been in place 20+ years and Toni in the baby room has been at Swan's for years & years (so many, I forget!) - I found this reassuring when our daughter first started at 9 months old. The staff have remained consistent throughout our daughter’s 3 years at Swan’s with only a small, natural turnover - always a good sign! The staff are friendly, caring and vigilant and work hard to bond with the children and encourage development on an individual basis. They seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs and workplace. Many of the staff also have their own children (not that this matters but some may find it comforting to know.) Ofsted Swans is rated Ofsted 'Good with Outstanding features' (personal development being one area they excel at.) It’s one of the higher rated Ofsted nurseries in the Prestwich area but often seems to get overlooked - I'm never quite sure why! It's a hidden gem. Rates, funding and inclusions Contact the nursery for the latest rates and funding info - all childcare is expensive but I remember it being one of the more reasonable rates in the area! Provisions includes breakfast, lunch and a light tea at around 4pm. Nappies, wipes and suncream are included for comparison purposes. Core hours Included in the standard daily payment rate is drop-off from 08.00am and collection by 5.30pm. You can pay a small fee extra to drop-off earlier (from 7.30am) and collect later (by 6pm.) Location & Parking Swans is located on Whittaker Lane - just 3 minutes walk from the Heaton Park metrolink stop. There is on-street parking behind the nursery on Earl Street - ideal for drop off & pick up, you will never find yourself fighting for a spot. App & tracking Swans uses the Learning Journals app to detail your child's day, communications and events. Up until pre-school - sleep, food intake, toileting and development milestones are all logged on the app along with regular pictures and videos of what your kiddo has been doing during the nursery day. Accidents/Incidents are also recorded via the app. Extracurricular activities My daughter has enjoyed regular seasonal walks/trips to Heaton Park, Stretch & Grow exercise classes (and for a very small fee extra) externally provided French lessons. Pre-school trips have been to Smithill's Farm and the Transport museum. Swans also put on an amazing graduation ceremony - it was above and beyond expectation with some lovely small take-home keepsakes. Other features There is secure on-site pram parking within the nursery boundary for those who need it. Summary We've been extremely happy with our experience of Swans for 3+ years. If we were to have any more children there is no doubt that I'd be popping my name down on the waiting list ASAP. Plus, both of my daughter’s Grandmas are retired primary school teachers and both have independently commented on how good her development has been (and now she's older - her readiness for school) crediting it largely to Swans and its staff. A huge thanks to Nicola, Emma, Joanne, Toni, Sana, Rachel, Leona, Kira and Ciara - you all do an amazing job and we’ll miss you & the amazing environment you work so hard to create on a daily basis.”

“I started coming to Northern Core after suffering a hamstring injury during football, and it’s been a game changer. The physio-led Pilates sessions helped me recover safely and effectively – I’ve noticed a big improvement in strength, flexibility and overall movement. It’s clear the team really know their stuff, and I always feel supported and well looked after. Highly recommend to anyone recovering from injury or just wanting to move better!”

“Incredibly beneficial. I would recommend Gary and his CBT skills to anyone!”

“Recently finished my last session with Nicola and I couldn't recommend her enough. She has left the door open if required, but given me the tools to move forward. The last session made me realise just how great a listener she is, reminding of things I'd said in our first meeting. Completely positive experience.”

“Good communication, professional, and they get things done. Definitely recommend!”

“Incredibly beneficial. I would recommend Gary and his CBT skills to anyone!”

“Where to start..Frankie is amazing. She has a wealth of experience and has helped enormously with Harriet (9 month old Bracco Italiano) who was dragging us on walks. She now walks beautifully without pulling..making our walks full of fun. Frankie is always on time and the "doggy logs" tracking routes, distance covered and photos...makes you sure....you really are with the best professional walker. She simply is...the BEST.”

“I can highly recommend Beverley for whatever therapy you need, originally I went as a couple for marriage guidance which has been extremely helpful and because she is so good at what she does I see her on my own for my anxiety over flying and can truthfully say that I’ve managed to take my first step getting back on a plane without having a massive panic Thank you Beverley for helping us/me and continuing to do so.”

“good quality beds, good service and advice, good delivery time”
