Children's Corner (Farsley) is a Good-rated, privately-owned childcare setting established in 2005, located on the grounds of Springbank Junior School in Pudsey, West Yorkshire. Open all year round, Monday to Friday, from 7:30 am to 6:00 pm, it caters to children aged 0 to 11 years.
The nursery prides itself on providing a stimulating learning environment where children are happy and form close bonds with their key persons. The passionate manager ensures that each room is thoughtfully organised to support children's needs for relaxation, physical activity, and both individual and group learning.
The staff demonstrate a strong understanding of the curriculum and tailor activities to children's interests, ensuring meaningful learning experiences. For instance, staff have used a till in the role-play area to encourage number recognition, counting, and estimation, and introduced sensory investigations with citrus fruits and cucumber for babies.
Children are frequently engaged in conversations, with staff employing age-appropriate questioning to encourage critical thinking and recall. Teaching is consistently strong, and at times exceptional, particularly in the baby and toddler rooms, where interactions are of high quality, fostering calm and purposeful learning.
The nursery maintains a robust partnership with parents, who frequently provide positive feedback and receive regular updates on their children's progress through online platforms. The setting also offers additional services for families, such as children's haircuts and shoe fitting, to help parents maximise their quality time with their children.
A strong key-worker system ensures staff are well-informed about each child's interests and evolving needs, facilitating excellent communication with parents.

Areas to develop
Can't recommend Children's Corner Farsley enough. My daughter started here during the pandemic and it's been a rocky road due to us choosing to take her out for periods of time while my husband stayed at home. Throughout all of this, the nursery staff have been really supportive. They are always keen to know everything about my daughter so they can replicate what's happening at home and support her developmentally. They prove time and time again that each child is an individual and work according to each child's needs devising activities that suit them, their likes and stage. In addition they provide all the emotional support that my daughter could wish for. Jade (my daughter's key worker) works so hard to give my daughter what she needs on every level and I happily place my trust in her. She is a dedicated professional and clearly adores her job and the children. And we adore her too! We will certainly miss her when we leave baby room. But I feel confident she will support our transition into the next room and leave us in more than capable hands. Thank you to all the staff at Children's Corner. Leaving your child with someone else is so tough initially and you made it really easy.
Read on GoogleI would highly recommend Children’s Corner Farsley. My child has recently completed their induction and has settled into the nursery really well, which is all thanks to the lovely staff in the baby room; Lauren, Jade, Lizzy and Harri. Thank you! The staff are excellent at posting photos of the various activities my child has been up to during the day and it’s clear that he’s having great fun. One of things I particularly like about the nursery is that they let the child choose their key worker and they chose Jade, who is a fantastic asset to the nursery team; we really appreciate the effort she has gone to in helping our child settle in so well.
Read on GoogleA fantastic nursery which is run by people who clearly have a passion for childcare. My eldest daughter has attended the out of school facilities since starting school and always enjoys her time there. This includes the holiday club in which the staff make a fantastic effort to ensure the kids always have something to do. My youngest has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old and the staff are helping her grow into a wonderful little person. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. Don't pay any attention to the clearly malicious "reviews" which have begun circulating recently. Interesting how they have all appeared suddenly in great number without anything meaningful to say.
Read on GoogleWe absolutely love Children’s Corner Farsley! Sending our daughter there was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Eliza quickly formed an attachment with the lovely Lizzy, who naturally then became her key worker. We get amazing updates and observations through with so much detail! We really appreciate the effort Lizzy goes to when writing them - it’s amazing to hear what our little girl is up to! :) Jade and Lauren in the baby room are fantastic as well, and we know Eliza is so well looked after throughout the day. Her development has come on leaps and bounds since she started at Children’s Corner and we know this is down to the fantastic activities the staff make so much effort to provide for the children. We’ve realised that nursery is so much more than just a place to look after your children while you can’t. We would recommend Children’s Corner to everyone and we are so grateful to the staff for everything they have done for Eliza so far. She always comes home in a really good mood and we can tell she’s had another lovely day at nursery :)
Read on GoogleChildren’s corner is a lovely nursery, and our boy loves it. The staff are all fun, caring and loving, whilst also teaching the fundamentals to our son helping him develop. His key carer Jade is the perfect friend and teacher for him, and you can see how much fun he has in the regular photo updates we receive through the app. Although he’s now moved up a class, he has settled straight in and has the same fun and games with his new key carers, which is a testament to the quality of the staff as a whole. He has no hesitation leaving us in the morning, and still gets to see his mate Jade through the day for selfies! We’d have no hesitation to recommend.
