Young learner development in Manchester

“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.”

“Unfortunately this school is closed what a shame”

“Brilliant Nursery. My Leo has loved going to this Nursery and they have helped him loads with his development. All the staff are brilliant cant recommend them enough. Sylvia and Family”

“Great school, very flexible and can cater for every level of a student. My son really enjoys it, thank you!”

“An excellent opportunity to teach our children their mother tongue and meet new friends.”

“Amazing staff and children are looked after well”

“My daughter has been at this nursery for nearly two years and is flourishing. She is so happy and confident and it feels like all the staff really care about the work they do and the children they look after. It has a great family feeling. They always looks like they're having great fun, with lots of planned activities, messy play and outdoor time, but there are also dedicated learning plans in place and we receive regular updates on her progress and meeting developmental milestones. The building is warm, welcoming, safe and colourful, and we like the smaller group ethos, where it feels like the children receive plenty of attention and are supported in their interests. Communication is great, from management updates and parents' evenings right through to daily activity logs on the app. They also send sweet activities home, so last week we received a parcel of cake making ingredients to make a lemon drizzle cake! I'd definitely recommend Little Learners to anyone looking for a nursery in the Chorlton/Stretford area.”

“The best nursery we could have picked for our daughter. We chose Kinder Giggles because it was small and has a family feel to it. My daughter was born during lockdown and had some health issues and i felt supported by the staff in making sure she was safe and settled. She absolutely loves her time at nursery with all of her friends. We are kept up to date with all of the amazing activities they do throughout the day. Management have always been approachable and flexible if I have needed to change days or times. We have used other nurseries in the area for my other child and feel they have not been at the same standard as what kinder Giggles is. Thanks everyone for all of your hard work xx”

“My son is currently in pre school 1 and he Ioves going to nursery. All of the staff are excellent and everything is well taken care of. I couldn’t recommend them enough!”

“I cannot recommend Educare enough. From Becky, the manager, to each and every one of my son's key workers throughout the three years he has been there (Kirsty, Nicola, Emy, Alicia, Lizzie, Amy, Elena), I have always felt he is in the safest hands. Every member of staff is just the loveliest - they put tonnes of effort into the activities they plan, and parents are kept up to date with progress and pictures. Nothing is ever too much, even when I call up in the middle of the day because "he just seemed a bit sad this morning and I wanted to check whether he's cheered up and now having a good day!". They don't just give it lip service, they keep me on the line as they go to check on him, and will pass me on to his key worker if a bigger update is needed. Any time he's had a bump or fall (he's a kid, it's going to happen!), it's been recorded, and I've had a detailed account of exactly how it came about - which ALWAYS matches up to my son's description of the event, too. I really do love all the staff here, they provide a really personal touch which makes the world of difference. And to have your kid come home and say their key worker is their BEST FRIEND is the most heartwarming thing ever. He feels safe, and so do I.”

“I recommend this nursery, very friendly staff and management, the kids are always happy. They do potty training and all. My daughter has been with the Nursery since she was 2. The best of the best. I would give 100 stars if it were possible”

“My son went to this nursery from 9 months old until he left for school in September. All the staff are so caring and loving, like a family away from home - three of his key persons particularly standout, Katie G who was his first in Bunnies and supported his transition into nursery life, Jess for support with his speech and language while he was in Fox Cubs and Malaika while he was in Owls for nurturing his curiosity through her experiments. His first parents evening at primary school was full of positives and he is hitting or exceeding all his targets, part of this is the play and experiences he had while being at Footsteps! Thanks from a proud Daddy!”

“We had an amazing experience with our baby at the nursery We were invited to play with her and it was a different experience looking at her exploring. She had so many different play areas to play with.”

“Our daughter started at Fisherfield Nursery last September after receiving many recommendations from other parents. She has done a full year there now and we couldn't recommend it enough. She settled in wonderfully, and we feel so reassured by the care and attention she receives. The staff are approachable and accommodating, always ready to address any questions we have. It's been lovely to receive daily updates, including photos of her happily participating in various activities. We have also had the opportunity to spend time with her in nursey during special events that they have held. She is thriving, and it’s clear that the nursery provides a nurturing and engaging environment for her to do so.”

“Paintpots is an amazing nursery. My little boy has settled in well and has flourished due to their care and attention that they provide daily. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. I receive a report at each term end with my little boys progress and a daily report on the app to highlight the daily activities and foods that he has eaten. On pick up I get a run down verbally of how he has been, which is very reassuring that they are looking after him and monitoring him all the time. I would highly recommend paint pots nursery. I understand how important it is to place your child at the right nursery and feel confident that they are being looked after. I can't praise the pre school room members of staff enough, they are truly amazing!”

“It's a quiet, good house, worth living in. The team members are all very professional and friendly, especially Claudia and Mario. The five-star rating is all because of them; the housing experience would otherwise deserve at most four stars. Objectively speaking, those one-star reviews are a bit exaggerated. The house is indeed a bit far from the school and the city center, and there are few shops around. However, there is a bus stop with the 50 route right at the doorstep, so it's not particularly inconvenient. Regarding the WiFi, it's true that it's very slow for gaming, but it's fine for attending classes and watching videos. Throughout my communication with Claudia and Mario, they also helped me clear up many misunderstandings. Overall, the feeling was quite positive. In short, I would give Claudia and Mario a five-star rating.”

“My son has recently joined the nursery and all the staff have been brilliant with him, particularly his two key workers. He has settled in really quickly and is very happy there. The outside space is an added bonus and is fantastic!”

“Great facilities for parents and children”

“Wonderful staff, lively building and an overall great atmosphere. Cannot recommend this place high enough. My daughter was here for about 2 or 3 years, and she absolutely loved it.”

“Really brilliant location, lovely staff! Great freedom for little ones!”

“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.”

“My daughter loves this place, she has so much fun here. The staff are amazing, you can see it's more than a job to them, it has a magical atmosphere!”

“We have had two boys attend St Vincent’s pre school in the past and our youngest son currently attends. We are so happy with the experience they have all had. It is a safe, nurturing environment with constantly changing activities for them to learn and play with. They spend a lot of time outdoors which we love. The transition into school was managed so beautifully by the pre school and my boys left pre school well prepared for reception class. The staff are all wonderful, highly trained and professional yet so warm and friendly. I could not recommend more highly.”

“Excellent service...my son's development has improved a lot...will recommend it to anyone...”

“My little boy started Kidsstart over a year ago, from the very start we found Kidsstart to be such a lovely, welcoming place! My boy has some developmental difficulties, and the staff are just amazing with him. They go above and beyond in supporting him (and our family) and he is so excited every morning for nursery! Thank you so much to all the lovely staff, you deserve all the praise and accolades the nursery receives!”

“Absolutely amazing class for babies and toddlers. Becky is very educated on children's development which is shown in all her classes. My daughter says is the best class she has ever been too.”
