Wellness experiences in Prestwich

“Very gods service and quality haircuts”

“The reception staff went above and beyond when handling my concerns during initial phone calls, arranging my appointment and on my visit. Helen, the vet, is well known to me as both knowledgeable and caring. She is the reason I use this practice and she didn’t disappoint. She diagnosed, reassured and prescribed as needed and was both caring to Betty (my dog) and reassuring regarding my concerns. One couldn’t ask for more and I would highly recommend this practice to any caring owner of pets,”

“My family of 5 stayed there Friday to Saturday this week. The staff are amazing and so friendly I have 3 ASD children and the staff were lovely with them all. As we were checking in the lady gave each of them some cookies. The beds are so comfy and I'd paid for breakfast which can I say fantastic such choice which is perfect for my children as they can be hard to cater for. As we were about to leave the restaurant one of the male staff came over and gave my younger 2 a Terry's chocolate orange each. I would definitely stay there again and can't rate it highly.”

“Our child has been at Kids adVentures Prestwich now for almost a year and we have found them to be kind, attentive and supportive throughout their journey. It's nice to see ongoing investment, for instance the outdoor space has recently been renovated, and the team keep us up to date with any changes.”

“Under new management, better prices , all legit goods and in date. Lovely staff too”

“Leanne is fantastic! I've just been for my first facial with her and I feel absolutely amazing. Such a relaxing experience, Leanne is brilliant at what she does and made me feel really comfortable and relaxed.”

“I've just started going to this beauty salon. So far I've had a pedicure, facial and eyelash/eyebrow tint with waxing. Very impressed by all. The salon I'd spotlessly clean, Jess dcplains everything she's doing and the pricing is reasonable. She can be booked direct or on treatwell.”

“I had my first visit with Cheryl this week and I am very pleased with the outcome of my lip filler. I have had this procedure 4+ times over the years and I can say this experience and result is by far the best. I am over the moon with the shape of my new lips : ) I can’t wait to book in for more procedures.”

“Super friendly barber, great cut, and really fair pricing. Highly recommended!”

“Got the skin fade and it was mint, Sam did great on it”

“Kim is just amazing at what she does, I get my Botox, lips and threads done by her and always feel totally relaxed she explains everything so through before anything. She is so gentle and honestly can say I don’t feel a thing ever, wouldn’t go to anyone else now Iv found Kim! So so happy with my results every single time, she’s just so lovely as well as knowing what she is doing, feel in safe hands completely! Thanks again Kim xx”

“I have been going to Raheala for over six months for laser hair removal and facials. Extremely happy with outcome of treatments. Would highly recommend the high frequency facials if you have stubborn reoccurring acne or just want a fresh glow, they really work. Raheala is so lovely and professional, 10/10”

“Lovely nails and relaxing atmosphere”

“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!”

“Nice place to buy kosher products.”

“Rebecca did an amazing job on my hair, all the staff are lovely and friendly. Made me feel comfortable and relaxed. 100% recommend.”

“Great barbers and great staff. I’ve been using this barbers for 30+ years, would recommend.”

“Krave Coffee is a lovely cafe in Whitefield with plenty of free parking outside. The staff are all cheery and polite and the food is well cooked and neatly presented on your plate. Theres no step at the door and a ramp inside so easy walking for older customers and easy access for wheel & push chairs. We both had the small english and I swapped out those nasty mushrooms and tomatoes (my own taste I just dont like them) for another Grandads Sausage. The Americano was spot on and I would go back here just for another cuppa probably have some cake as well. Lunch menus when I asked are only served on weekdays. The seating inside is very comfortable, and theres also tables and chairs outside. A disabled toiket is also located at the back.”

“Great store in Sedgley park. Nice staff too.”

“Absolutely amazing place! Definitely the best in my personal opinion! If it's good enough for the celeb clients, it's good enough for anyone! Been a regular client for a year and been numerous times for my fillers, staff are ALWAYS so friendly and lovely, always listen to my requests and make me so relaxed. Stacey is the girl I always go to, would never ever go to someone else now! Recommended Mac to everyone I know, my best friends and sister in law are all regular clients now. Couldn't recommend enough!”

“Always welcome...treated like one of the family.”

“Love you hair as always. Fab service xx”

“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.”

“Small,intimate evening classes for professional Actors to refine their audition skills and cold reading technique.Very useful.”

“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.”
