Sunday, February 12, 2023
We wont be there today and I’m very happy to provide some feedback as our children have always been so happy at Kids Collective.
I think there’s a great mix of structured activities and free play opportunities. I think our older son has generally done more free play while our younger son has really enjoyed some of the crafts you have done with them, to the point he cried on one occasion when we collected him ‘too early’.
Both children say there are no ‘bad’ meals at Kids Collective, unlike at home I love that they have access to outside mealtime to fruit and veg snacks.
Our older son told us once that he loved the chance to sit and chat with a member of staff he particularly likes while he ate.
There’s usually the chance for lots of physical activity, even when the weathers not great.
Staff have always been really helpful whenever I’ve had any questions or concerns about the children I have no doubt the children are safe and well cared for at Kids Collective.

Seb loves it! Lots of great activities to do from scooters to local walks. As a full-time working parent, it’s comforting to know he is in a safe, happy environment.

I wanted to write to pass on some compliments to all your staff at Navigation. My daughter is in nursery and comes every day for after school care to Kids Collective.
She absolutely adores the staff, who are amazing. Every day she has done something creative and when I pick her up she is beaming with pride and excitement to show me what she has been doing. She gets so much out of her time there.
Under what has been some strange circumstances, the staff at Navigation have adapted and the quality of care and range of enrichment offered hasn’t been affected at all, they’re just as good as they were before just organised a bit differently. I have 100% confidence in them.
Please pass on my heartfelt thanks to them all for looking after my daughter every day.

Thank you to you and your staff for the care and activities you have provided we have been with you since 2009 and both boys always spoke highly of your staff and enjoyed after school club….in fact it was sometimes difficult to get them out to come home.
The staff recognise the development and capabilities of the older children and set them to task and activities that support the younger children and foster that community and belonging with them so they have felt very much part of what you provide.
Thank you

“Hi, I just wanted to say how grateful and proud I am of one of your play workers. My child had his last day today at Cloverlea as he didn’t get a reception place for September, but his key worker has been excellent with him in all aspects. It’s thanks to Chloe that I have been able to watch first hand my little boy grew from a shy, quiet little boy into an, at times over, confident and bubbly lad. He used to hate mornings but due to his fantastic relationship with Chloe he found a way to enjoy it. Fabulous key workers should be something to be proud of. Thank you Chloe T!

Thank you for not only being there for collecting from sports clubs, providing the most creative environment for the children and hosting what can only be described as ‘crazy’ parties but for the support you give to all us parents who have to juggle a work life balance who without you could not give our children the opportunities that they experience with you all.

A huge thank you to everybody at School’s Out/Kid’s Collective for your care with Jessica throughout her time at Navigation school. She has always loved going to you, and you have dealt with some of our personal requests with care and consideration. We have no doubt that you provide the children with a fun, safe environment, with hidden lessons!
Your commitment to fundraising should also be noted – not ‘in your face’ making you feel obligated, and for some great causes as well.
The team is cheerful and approachable, and I have been more than happy to use you for both breakfast and after school facilities
Thank you again for everything.

All the staff at Kids Collective Cloverlea are really friendly and approachable, William is very settled at Kids Collective to the point he doesn’t want to come home. My daughter is looking forward to joining in September and i am sure the staff will be just as kind and supportive to her as they have been with William.

All the staff are exceptional. Both my children love attending Kids Collective. It is again a struggle to get them to leave. They do varied, exciting, fun and educational activities. The staff genuinely care for the children. They have given us exceptional support with our challenging family circumstances and made difficult situations appear easy and seamless. I cant express how grateful I am to the staff. They have payed a major part in keeping my girls happy and well adjusted.
Thank you so much!

Just wanted to say a BIG well done to Rachael and the Hale team on their thoroughly well deserved praise in the recent Ofsted report.I am really pleased that the Inspector recognised what fantastic work has taken place over the last few months, as our son George could not be happier. The delight all the Hale team take in every little bit of progress he makes is very much appreciated.Thank you for providing George with such a caring and fun environment.

Our son Theodore has recently started in the Willow room at Elmscot and I just wanted to take the time to let you know that we have been so happy and pleased with the care and attention his key person Holly has given him during the last few weeks. Theodore hasn’t found it easy to settle and has struggled with eating and sleeping but he’s had a really good few days in the last week and we are definitely seeing signs that he is feeling more settled. Holly has been fantastic and it is clear that she genuinely cares about the children. Theodore clearly feels happy and settled around her, which I am sure is down to the way she interacts with him. I have also hugely appreciated the patience and understanding Holly has shown towards me over the last few weeks. She was always understanding when I would call to check on him and in the early days, she took the time to call me unprompted to let me know how he was….something I really appreciated whilst being sat at home worrying about him!

My daughter Isabelle has her last day in the Rabbit room today before she moves into Hedgehogs at Woodlands. I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone involved in Isabelle’s care since she joined Woodlands in August 2015. Francesca, Katie, Catherine and all the other wonderful workers have made Izzy’s time so pleasurable. As a first time Mum I was very nervous about placing my little lady in nursery care so I could go back to work part time. The team put my mind at rest instantly and Izzy has come on leaps and bounds thanks to the time, care and attention provided. Izzy can count to ten, her vocabulary is excellent and her confidence levels around adults and children is fantastic. Thank you Rabbit Room and thank you Woodlands for everything so far. We are looking forward to Isabelle’s next adventure with Hedgehogs. Izzy will miss you all (even though you are only across the landing) however she has already started to develop a lovely bond with Marina and the wonderful ladies in Hedgehogs so we know that she will continue to thrive in your care. We are forever grateful Lauren Plant

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the staff who have looked after Rafi and Amina in Hedgehogs at Woodlands since Sept. They’ve had a brilliant time in the room! We have been very impressed with all the staff who have obviously got to know the twins really well in such a short time. It’s been really reassuring knowing they’ve been so well cared for and have had so much fun. I’m sure they’ll love being in Otters just as much.

My 3-year old daughter has been attending Hale Day Nursery since she was 11 months old. Her development, confidence and social skills have come on tremendously since attending the nursery and I credit a lot of that to the dedication of the staff & management. She is cared for, stimulated, educated, nurtured, encouraged and exposed to such a wide range of activities every day. The management are very quick to respond to any queries I might have and I do believe they promote high standards of professionalism amongst the staff. The nursery is a fun place to visit and often parents and grandparents are invited in for events, for example Sports Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas Carols etc. I feel that each day is planned for so well for my daughter & she also enjoys a lot of outdoor time in the excellent garden facilities.

Hale Day Nursery continues to surprise me when it comes to the food and quality of healthy activities. My son has never been a picky eater but Hale seems to continue to push him to try new foods which are always healthy. The meals are cooked fresh every morning, they smell great!! Lisa, the chef, is clearly dedicated to making sure all of the children have healthy foods including a piece of fresh fruit as soon as they walk through the door in the morning. Daily deliveries of food arrive from very local providers. My son is devastated if we arrive a little early and the fruit hasn’t been delivered yet; he knocks on the kitchen doo asking for some adn Lisa always brings him some as soon as it arrives. The outside activities are also key, always in fresh air, come rain or shine, they learn about growing plants and vegetables, and see where the eggs come from, from the chickens on site. Everything is geared towards healthy activity and sustenance. The team are also very honest; if my son doesn’t eat something or leaves food, they’ll tell me. Overall, I think the quality of food and healthy activities are exceptional.
Anna Lowe
Thursday, July 7, 2016
We are so pleased with choosing Hale Day Nursery for our two children. Quite simply the staff and nursery environment are wonderful and we couldn’t be more happy with the level and quality of service.
The food is top notch – tasty and nutritionally sound – we never have to worry about what our children have eaten during the day as we know they will have had good quality meals and snacks, with access to water all day. As well as a fantastic play area allowing the kids to run around and play in a semi-rural setting, the nursery chickens and garden area encourage children to understand the links between food and the world in which they live and especially how food gets onto their plate. In our view, the nursery establishes the essential foundations of a healthy lifestyle in an accessible and fun way.

I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how wonderful Clair (and all the girls in the baby room at Elmscot) have been in settling Beau into nursery. He seems very happy and the cards and pictures that have been coming home have really helped me adjust to going back to work. The team really goes the extra mile and it doesn’t go unnoticed so I want to pass on my heartfelt thanks to them all.

The ‘Beech’ team really go out of their way to ensure Seth enjoys his two days a week at Elmscot. Seth runs into nursery, enjoys his day and tells us about what he has been doing when he gets home. Seth (and us) love the range of activities they do and how this encourages his development in so many different areas. In particular Seth’s communication skills are improving enormously and we are delighted to witness his imagination growing. You play a huge part in this and we thank the team for all the planning and attention to detail they must put into each day. We couldn’t be happier that they look after our son.
Helen Walker
Thursday, July 7, 2016
I can’t praise the staff in Beech room at Elmscot enough. Every morning we are met with smiles and cuddles and the whole team are happy, upbeat and unflappable. They truly care about every single child, how they interact with them how confident the children are in their care speak volumes. Elodie has a wonderful relationship with Danielle and talks about her at home all the time. Elodie has grown up so much in Beech room – she has potty trained and dropped her nap – and the support and advice of the team have made it a lot easier than it probably should have been! Thank you Beech room, you are a wonderful team!
Adele Bate
Wednesday, July 6, 2016
We would like to pass on our gratitude and thanks, for the amazing service provided for our 3 children. In the 7 years I can honestly say, we have not had 1 complaint and only have good things to say about Elmscot. We have been extremely impressed with all the staff and will be sad to say goodbye.

Thank you so much for your whole team looking after Matthew so well, I cannot believe how much he enjoys being at nursery (Hale). As you know I had him in a nursery nearer to my home before and moved him so that he was nearer to my work. I am so glad that I made the change because the difference in Matthew is fantastic.

We are so pleased that Ava has settled into pre school with Nicola and Mrs McIntyre so well.
We couldn’t ask for a better learning and playing environment for Ava.
We can’t praise the nursery and staff enough! We are pleased to have chosen to keep Ava at Hale rather than move her to a school pre school as we were so impressed with how things are structured and run.

We are delighted with Thomas’ progress over the last few months and are often surprised by many of the things he explains that he has learnt at nursery. We were especially impressed by how his report is a true representation of him. His understanding of numbers, use of new words and forming of letters has really improved over the time he has been in Oak room. The new introduction of the ipads has certainly helped this. At parents evening we were extremely pleased to hear that Thomas is settling well and he is just as much of a character at nursery as he is at home. We are delighted with the enthusiasm of the team: Jess, Hanna and Mrs Homersham and the banter they share with Thomas and how well they understand our child.

Ollie really enjoys nursery and has made wonderful progress. He has enjoyed looking through his folder and has smiles a lot remembering all the wonderful things he has done. Ollie has developed into a friendly, happy little boy who will I am sure have great memories of his nursery days. He has been given a great start and is very much looking forward to school – hopefully he will be as happy there as he is at Elmscot. It would have been easier logistically to move him to the school nursery but we didnt want him to miss out on the amazing teaching of Mrs Homersham!

We appreciate everything that you all have done! Not forgetting the ladies in the kitchen who Daniel really looks forward to seeing in a morning. Their welcoming smiles made the first sessions much easier for him as he was easily reassured with their genuine warmth. We are so happy, as is Daniel. He looks forward to his sessions at your nursery which speaks volumes about the hard work and care your staff provide. Jennifer and John Harding

(Hale) Monty moves up to the Hedgehog room tomorrow after a wonderful 5 months in the Rabbit room with the equally wonderful Laura and Francessca. They manage to keep my rather boisterous, cheeky and mess-prone little boy happy and entertained all day which is not easy! The fact that most days start with smiles and end in tears when it’s time to go home is testament to how much he loves being there. A special thank you to Francessca who has been Monty’s key worker; Francessca has looked after Monty so well and his development since attending Hale and being under Francessca’s care has been tremendous. Thank you xx

To all staff at Woodlands: There is not enough space on here to thank you for all the things you have done for Asa and Cassiel in the time that they have been with you. In the 3.5 years since I first left Asa in your care – pregnant with Cass – you have been nothing short of brilliant with both boys all of the time. As well as all the love, care and help with day-to-day things like potty training, you have shown them fun, adventure and excitement and for that we are extremely grateful. We have constantly been impressed by the fun ways you have introduced learning and we have really enjoyed hearing you talk with enthusiasm about the funny and mischievous things they have done. Thank you once again from all of us. Staff at Woodlands really are streets ahead! Debs, Jame,s Asa and Cassiel

I’ve been meaning to leave a message for ages to say how thrilled my husband and I continue to be with Hale. Dexter absolutely loves it and when I read the information about the day’s activities I am just overwhelmed at how much work goes into planning the activities. It has brought tears to my eyes on more than one occasion. I often get talking to my customers about nurseries and I’m always flying the Elmscot flag if they live locally Couldn’t be happier.

I just wanted to say what a fantastic addition to an already excellent facility at Elmscot the new Oak playroom makes. I personally am delighted with it and Holly is too. She is even more excited about coming to nursery now Credit to the whole Elmscot team for making the changes so quickly and smoothly. I think the new Oak room will give the pre-schoolers an even better opportunity to prepare for Reception and will be wonderful in the summer months to have such ready access to the garden.

Our eldest son Isaac is at Elmscott. When he first started participating in stretch and grow and drama, he was very shy and not too keen.

Claudia and Louise have been at Elmscot for seven months now and we are so pleased with how well they have both settled. It was a fairly difficult transition for Claudia, with moving to a new country away from family, friends and familiar places, not to mention starting a new nursery. We are so happy to say that she is finally starting to genuinely enjoy going to nursery. It has been a slow progress, but so worth it to hear her chatting about her friends and teachers and all the things that happen at nursery in such a happy way. We think the consistency and strong routine that Elmscot provides as well as the patience shown by the staff have been key in helping her to settle so well. Louise has enjoyed Elmscot from the beginning and we are so happy that our adventurous little girl is encouraged to climb and make a mess and do all those things that she can’t do as freely at home. The activities you think up for small babies to do are wonderful. We look forward to watching her enjoy the experiences in the toddlers room next Thank you for minding our two daughters so well.

Eilidh is really enjoying Elmscot and often has a glow at the end of the day when i pick her up. Eilidh has had a lot of changes – new bedroom/sister/nursery this summer/autumn and is hopefully now settling into them all this should help with confidence, we will continue to encourage her.

A huge Thank You to all the girls on the Pre-School floor at Elmscot – my daughter Emma has been with you for less than 2 months and already I can see how much she’s progressed during that time, with her speech and general independence. We’ve also just come home from our son Harry’s first Parents evening since he started at St Hugh’s in September – and his Reception teacher commented on what a great start he’d had with you. He’s settled in so well and I have you all to thank for doing such a great job with him. So keep up the great work (please). X

Massive thanks to the Woodlands team in their preparing of Myles for school. We have just had his first Parents’ Evening and the teachers feel he has settled really well, making lots of friends, and is LOVING reading his Floppy Phonics books to us. It is the end of an era for our family as we have been coming to Woodlands since you opened in 2006. The children had loads of fun everyday and have formed friendships that have overcome not going to the same school together. A truly lovely environment.

The time has come for Neve to move onto BIG school. We are really excited for her but we will all miss everybody at Elmscot, and are very sad that she has to move on. We cannot thank you enough for the care and love that you have given Neve over the last 4 years. Not once have we worried about her and we have known that each day she would have a lovely time. We could not have wished for a better start to her schooling years and would like to thank you all for this. PS love the fact that she is smiling at you every day on the pre-school wall Nicola John & Neve xxx

We cannot believe the time has come for our girls and us to say goodbye. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the security and dedicated childcare our girls have received over the last 3 years at Woodlands. Eva and Phoebe have had an amazing time and have grown very fond of many of you. Phoebe will not be far away, she’ll be continuing her journey at Elmscot with me. As for Eva, she has the foundations imparted by the team that will take her forward onto school. Many, many thanks for everything With lots of love from Gemma, Jonathan, Eva+Phoebe Stott xxx

Its Abigail’s last day at Woodlands today. I just wanted to say a big thank you to all the staff who have looked after Abigail over the years. In particular Miss Jackson, Nicola and Miriam have been fantastic in the care and teaching they have given. A true credit to Woodlands. Abigail has always enjoyed her time at nursery, and will miss everybody. I must say that the outings she has gone on during her time in pre-school have been fantastic and memorable.

Oscar, Mark and myself would just like to shout a big THANK YOU. Oscar has had a wonderful time with you over the past 3.5 years and you have certainly been a great support for me. Each week and each room Oscar has had the opportunity to do and learn different things. You have helped so much to give him confidence and enjoyment. He tells me all the time that my cooking is not as good as Helen’s, which is probably true. I hope the rest of his schooling is as strong and as much fun as it has been at Woodlands. Choosing Woodlands is one of the best decisions we have ever made.

Matt and I would like to say a huge thank you to Woodlands for the excellent care you have given James Bell over the last 2 years. It is quite unnerving leaving your child (especially your first) with someone else when you go back to work, however Matt and I have never had to worry about James as we always knew that he was safe and cared for well. The activities and menus have all been excellent and James has really loved his time there. I know James’s brother Thomas will really enjoy his time at Woodlands. Thank you to everyone and see you soon with Thomas. Xxxx

A great big ‘Thank You’ to you all for William’s wonderful time at Woodlands. He has enjoyed every minute. Thank you to Catherine for settling him in when he first started and getting him ready for Pre-school where Miss Jackson, Nicola, Miriam, Jo and the other girls have brought the best out in him and done a fab job looking after him. Thank you as well to Helen and Terri for the delicious lunches that he almost always wanted 2nds of. Finally marks to Carla for putting up with my dithering phone calls. I will send a photo of William in his uniform and no doubt you will see him when Emily starts at Woodlands next month. Thank you again. xxxxxx

The staff at Elmscot are amazing. So approachable, caring and professional. As a qualified nursery nurse I thought it would be hard to find somewhere that met all my expectations but Elmscot has ticked all the boxes. We couldn’t be happier – it has made returning to work much easier than I thought I would. THANK YOU

First time my twins aged 7 have attended Schools Out holiday club. I moved them from their previous one because it was nearer to my new home and better hours. My kids absolutely adored it.

Just a little Thank You to everyone at Elmscot for the brilliant trip into Manchester today to visit the Science Museum – they had such a fantastic day. I’m not sure what they enjoyed most…the experiments, the rides in the bus and trams or the picnic. It’s wonderful that you provide these trips – and very much appreciated Thank you xxx

I just wanted to say I am extremely pleased with Lila’s progress, she adores coming to nursery and we feel reassured that she spends her day creatively and learning every step of the way. The carers are a credit to the nursery and both our girls mention them constantly. It is lovely to have no concerns about their welfare or development. Both of which are managed with care at Woodlands.

I just want to pass on my thanks publicly to Catherine in the pre-school room at Elmscot. Bess has always been a fussy eater and rarely eats her lunch at nursery. This has been going on from 18 months-3 years. However we have suddenly had a breakthrough thanks to Catherine. With a little encouragement and more attention at mealtimes, Catherine has succeeded in getting Bess to eat her lunch every day for the past three weeks and on one occasion she even had a second helping Nothing short of a miracle. Thanks to Catherine and the pre-school team for your hard work x

It had been 17 months now since Aidan joined M&M in Elmscot, which seems just like yesterday. And from next week, he will be leaving M&M and moving up to the 2nd floor. We would like to say a huge ?Thank you? for everyone in M&M who have been taking great care of Aidan, especially Kanta. Your kindness, patience and professionalism had made our shy little boy who couldn?t speak a word of English to today?s confident boy who couldn?t stop talking about the fun stories of his friends and teachers in nursery. He had thoroughly enjoyed every minute in M&M. I am sure he will miss everyone. Thank you. xx

We are delighted with how our 2 year old son Isaac has settled into Elmscot under the superb experience and care of Michelle and Kanta in Mulberry room. Isaac joined on 4th Jan 2012, 2 days per week and settled well after only a handful of full days. His care before this was all done by grandparents so quite a different experience for him and a challenge for all those involved, but to our absolute joy he is now happy so quickly, we actually had to really convince him to leave for home last week, he wanted to stay so much Michelle and Kanta have made what was a very daunting challenge for us actually very easy, so thank you.

We are extremely pleased with the progress our twins Evie and Ellie are making with you. Evie’s language skills are improving daily aswell as her understanding of when to use words, descriptions and sentences. Ellie is talking so much more now. She loves singing and dancing which is much encouraged by your Stretch and Grow sessions. The support you provide to our family is invaluable to us. Whilst recovering from 2 years of cancer treatment, I am increasingly struggling to wear them out or play as physically as they need. They are so happy when they spend their day each week with you Thank you

Just want to say thank you to everyone in M&M, especially Kanta & Michelle. Aidan has been going to Elmscot for 4 months now, but it feels like he’s been there for years. He is getting on so well with everyone. Every time you ask him do you like nursery? He always say yes with a big smile. As a Chinese parents, we were very worried about how he would communicate in nursery, but his English has improved so much since he started, and now he has no problem at all with communication. We really appreciate all the effort from the nurses. Also because Aidan has food intolerance and eczema, all the nurses have been paying extra attention to his food and reaction, also apply cream when necessary. We are very grateful for the care Aidan received in Elmscot. Thank you very much.

In particular his first key workers Anna & Philippa who settled Nathan into the baby room so well and helped him to adapt to nursery life. His later keyworkers Marina, Miriam & Catherine, Liam, Nicola & Rosa who have helped Nathan progress between the different stages and played a huge part in helping Nathan become the delightful child he is today. A personal thanks though to Carla who seems to have been with Nathan in most of his rooms. Not only have you been a fantastic influence on Nathan but you have also given us as parents lots of support and advice.

I have been coming to Woodlands every week for nearly six years and I am sad to say my visits will soon be coming to an end as Molly is moving on to big school. Woodlands is a welcoming nursery with a real family atmosphere and I have always been confident leaving my children with the caring staff. The food is fantastic, the turnover of staff low so there is good continuity and facilities, especially the garden, are fantastic. Carla, one of the managers is very approachable and always available both around nursery, by email and by phone. The staff work really hard, have the patience of saints and obviously love the children. Please pass on my gratitude to all at Woodlands for making a working mum feel much less guilty about leaving her children
