Child center in Stoke

“Called in for a quick drink ,we were going to have a game of pool but understandably it was busy with schools on holiday,but overall a nice experience”

“Friendly staff, great waiting area - daughter didn't want to leave!”

“Can’t say enough about the staff one word AMAZING my mum loves them all but she got her faves lol and they all love my mum even in there own time on there day off because my mum was rushed in hospital they were all ringing and txting and like I said even on there day off they popped in the day to see me mum when she came home from hospital.”

“Really great hall with good facilities and parking. Available to hire out and it is not expensive. Give us a try with your event!!!”

“Went to the store yesterday with an issue and lady at the till was very polite and helpful she was breath of fresh air. The lady at the till had to go speak to the manager (Anna) with my case and the pair went extra mile and was very pleased with the service I received. Keep up the good work ladies and you are true asset to Argos. Its a shame I can not remember the ladies name at payment counter. Visited the store about 5pm if it helps.”

“All staff at Child 1st have been really good in helping our 3 year old to adapt to the pre-school environment ahead of him starting the School Nursery in September. From the settling in sessions to the communication on the app and in person we can’t fault it. Our son has enjoyed messy play and outdoor play and interacting with other children. This has also helped to further his development. We will be recommending Child 1st Stoke.”

“My little boy goes nursery here, and it's the best nursery going! He's come on so much since being here and the staff are so lovely! Also the food they provide is Great, my little boy loves going to nursery.”

“Very professional service, took time to explain everything thoroughly, made us feel at ease”

“The staff are friendly, quick, and very good with enforcing safety with covid. The place is clean, quiet and calming.”

“My son has settled so well into ABC Audlem. He absolutely adores Carina and all the other staff at ABC. Since starting there Jah'Mari has come on in leaps and bounds. He comes home happy every day from there telling me all the wonderful things he has been doing there. All the staff are very attentive and friendly. Always tell you how the children's days have been. I would highly recommend this childcare setting for anyone looking to put thier child into nursery. Thank you for all you do for my boy he loves you all very much.”

“I’ve used Kirsty quite a few times now and her knowledge is just second to none. You can see she is truly passionate about skincare and my skin has never been better since using her recommendations. The skin scanning and consultation could not have been more professional. Investing in my skin has been the best thing I’ve ever done! Thank you so much once again”

“I came across Essential Parenting in a moment that so many first-time mums will relate to—late at night, scrolling social media, feeling overwhelmed, emotional, and desperate for reassurance. That’s when I stumbled across Helen’s page, and it genuinely changed everything for me. Her posts stood out immediately. They weren’t overly polished or sugar-coated. They were real—raw when they needed to be, honest, and most importantly, comforting. Helen has this unique ability to talk about the struggles of parenting (the sleep deprivation, the tantrums, the feeding worries, all of it) in a way that doesn’t make you feel judged or like you’re failing. Instead, she makes you feel normal—like everything you’re facing is just part of the journey, and more importantly, that there are ways to work through it. From that first scroll, I became a consistent follower. Her content is not only full of useful, practical advice—it’s also reassuring and entertaining. Helen is incredibly down to earth, and you can feel her warmth and authenticity in everything she shares. Whether it's sleep tips, behavioural strategies, or just a meme that makes you laugh after a long day, she’s always on point. What truly set things apart for me was joining The Nest—Helen’s private, supportive community for parents. It’s honestly been one of the best decisions I’ve made since becoming a parent. The Nest offers access to exclusive masterclasses, expert advice, and a space to ask questions and get immediate support from both Helen and a lovely group of like-minded parents. The group chat alone is worth its weight in gold—it’s a space where you can be honest, vulnerable, and uplifted by others going through the same ups and downs. Helen has carefully created something really special with Essential Parenting and The Nest. It fills a niche that’s so often missing in the modern parenting world: real support without judgment, helpful advice without pressure, and a community that truly gets it. Plus, she delivers it all with a brilliant sense of humour that makes even the hardest days feel a little lighter. If you're a parent—looking for a safe, supportive space to feel seen, heard, and not alone, I can’t recommend Helen and Essential Parenting enough. She’s built something truly essential, and I’m so grateful to have found it.”

“I cannot put into words how special this setting really is. Every single member of staff is committed to the children they care for. They are extremely hard working and put an awful lot of thought and time into planning exciting learning activities for the children. They offer a large variety of learning experiences that engage the children and help them to grow and develop. My son especially enjoyed his visits to the allotment and learning about nature. ABC has great outdoor facilities for the children too. My son also loved playing with the footballs and riding on the bikes (which he told me about when he got home). My son has never been happier than when we was attending this setting. He would skip in in the mornings and not want to come home when I picked him up! He would always ask to stay longer. I trust the staff completely and I truly felt that they invested time in getting to know my son individually and cared about his needs and interests. What a fabulous team they are ! Would recommend to any parent in the area looking for a friendly, exciting and caring environment for their child.”

“Our daughter has loved her time at Hilltop Tots. The staff are so friendly, welcoming and enthusiastic and always greet/wave her off with a big smile. The building and grounds are fantastic and they’ve worked so hard to modernise it and make it a wonderful environment for the kids. The garden is huge with animals for the children to look after. Our daughter has learnt so much whilst she has been here, she has left full of confidence and great social skills, fully ready for school.”

“I took my granddaughter (20 months) here for the first time last week. A warm welcome from Hollie and a lovely session with plenty of toys. Great to see suggestions on the wall to support your child’s development in each area and my granddaughter particularly enjoyed the sensory room. We will be visiting again.”

“my children are currently in this nursery. the staff is fantastic, my children learn a lot, my children are really happy to go to nursery and I am happy to offer them time so that they can socialize, learn, play with other children especially at the youngest age.mum Noor and anas”

“Great place to meet local people and events”
