Organic childcare in Manchester

“We sent our daughter went to C4M Ashton over 10 years ago. She loved it, so I booked our son in after the pandemic because he'd not mixed at all. He loves it now and has settled in nicely. I know the owners, managers and staff are passionate about providing fab childcare.”

“My daughter has been at Yaqadoodle nursery coming up to a year now and absolutely loves it as do we as parents. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since attending and the staff are really lovely. Would definitely recommend.”

“Due to being born just before lockdown, Lydia hadn't been around many people when she first started, and was a very anxious baby with new people. Since starting I've noticed a huge improvement in how well she settles now with different people, the Famly system is great, keeping us up to do date. Fantastic nursery, thank you to all the staff.”

“My daughter has been attending bright futures nursery since she started in the baby room and absolutely loves it. She has a very strong relationship with all the staff within her room, especially her key worker. She always comes home telling myself and her daddy lots of lovely stories about what she has been doing during the day. My daughter gets daily messages which we love to read about at the end of the day too. We also have another baby on the way and in the future will definitely be attending this nursery. Brilliant nursery with staff who are so friendly and who you can trust.”

“This Nursery is the best nursery in Bury by far. All 3 of my children have attended here for a number of years, the staff are amazing and the most friendliest of people, always helpful. My children have been cared for very well here and learnt a lot and grown to become amazing individuals because they got the best start to their life and learning journey. Definitely highly recommended.”

“I am a current employee of tiny steps nursery and can say with confidence that this nursery is absolutely outstanding !! Management go above and beyond for there staff, children and even parents who come to the nursery. I started as an apprentice and my knowledge and confidence has grown very very quickly thanks to the support of my manager, I never thought I’d get as far as I have done when I started the job but I am thriving and I couldn’t of done that without a fantastic team.”

“My little boy started here after moving from another nursery and he has developed so so much since starting. He has been saying more words and also reading letters which he couldn’t do before. He is always so happy to go in and I love how we get sent pictures during the day of what they are up to and descriptions of what they have been doing. Really recommend this nursery”

“Absolutely love Nursery in the park, my older son went and now my 1 year old goes, All staff are amazing its home from home, I wouldnt want to send my boys any where else.”

“Channings childcare is a very nice environment to send your children too. As my children have also attended another leading Oldham private nursery i would say that Channings is by far the best. They do not attempt to add up there own prices and are considerate and quite flexible if you need them to be. They have a clean environment and good facilities and the staff here are very welcoming and pleasant. One big plus is THEY DO NOT CHARGE FOR BANK HOLIDAYS (UNLIKE OTHER NURSERY'S). If you can get your child in here do so as it is a very nice place to send your child! :-)”

“My daughter loves it, fantastic staff and lovely atmosphere!!!”

“I use Hollinswood for after school club and they are wonderful. My children are well cared for and enjoy a range of different activities. The price is great and includes the children getting a healthy snack (lots of it too). Definitely recommend to others!”

“Best nursery in Manchester. Both my children have attended Paintpots from baby room until school. If future brings more children this is the only nursery we would attend.”

“Gem and Jade are fantastic childminders. My daughter settled in very quickly and loves going in the mornings now. She always leaves really happy and is very content. They do a lot of creative activities and she often comes home with paintings. I love the photos that they send to keep you updated throughout the day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gem and Jade as they really do care and love all the children they look after.”

“A really wonderful nursery. New build with lots of spaces indoors and a really big and beautiful outdoor garden, the biggest we've seen in nearby nurseries. The ethos is great and the staff are all knowledgeable and friendly. By definition of a childcare facility, it really gives children the care they deserve.”

“Amazing Staff. My son has been going here now for 1year+. Chole and the Nursery Team always go the extra mile in understanding your needs and they provide amazing support and services MY son will be here until he graduates Thank you all”

“My daughter has been at ELC for about 9 months now. Before attednkng, she had an incredible nanny from a very early age. I was very nervous about the transition and level of care offered by a nursery compared to one on one care. We live in Spinningfields, so I conducted in depth research of the city centre childcare options. ELC wasn't the obvious choice compared to the chains in the city centre, but as soon as I met the owners / management I knew it was the right choice. ELC is family run and it really shows. Whenever there are any issues, they are incredibly proactive to create the best experience for our daughter. She had a hard time adjusting to the eating schedule so they asked what kinds of foods we eat at home in order to incorporate them into the menu. There were some staff changes with maternity leave which meant her key worker was changed. The first change didn't gel quite as well, so they transitioned to another key worker who now has an even closer relationship with her. For her settling in session, two of the staff came to our house - which was amazing and really helped her transition. She spends lots of time outdoors and taking walks. This is not the case for the other city centre nurseries. I love their Tapestry App which allows me to follow her activities and development as well as check in when I'm missing her at work. When we're traveling or doing something interesting at home I upload photos and they work them into her engagements. (Again, not available in the other nurseries.) ELC recently received a less than ideal Ofstead report which inspired me to write this review. As a parent, I am far less concerned a out procedures and paperwork than surrounding my daughter with a loving and playful environment. She is, after all, only 18 months!”

“Fisherfields really is a top class nursery and we couldn’t have chosen a better place for our son. It’s so easy to see that they love him and he loves them, whether it’s Megan, Elisha or Shammy in his room, or the rest of the lovely staff. My son has developed so much since being there and we can tell how much he enjoys it too. We get updates and pictures every day and have even had chance to watch our son play in his room with the team, which reassured us even more. Thank you for everything so far!”

“Lovely open plan nursery. Staff welcoming and knowledgeable. Children were happy and enjoying the activities.”

“My children have been attending this nursery for many years. All the staff are lovely and are always professional. Recently the team have really gone above and beyond to support me and my children.”

“Our child learned a lot from Busy Bee: language wise, motion wise, social skill wise, etc. Busy Bee workers are very responsive. We especially like the Parent Zone app. It gives us the chance to learn what our child did in nursery better.”

“My daughters have been going here for 2 and half years now. One of my daughters has quite complex medical needs and the nursery staff couldnt be more helpful with her. Always asking for updates on how to best support her.”

“My little boy is loving Busy Bees Cheadle kingsway he's so confident going in each morning because he's greated by his friendly staff members and key worker. Lots of different activities set out each day inside and outdoors, I can't recommend it enough.”

“Brilliant staff, very professional, kind and good with kids. My child enjoyed her time at Domalo and I would recommend them to anyone. Excellent service.”

“Brilliant staff, nice big outdoors space. My daughter loves it here.”
