My daughter has just left Nurture ready for school. She’s been there just over 2 years and has been well looked after during that time. Mornings when she was a bit reluctant, her key worker and other staff members gave her the extra attention she needed and I was assured she was well looked after. She’s really enjoyed her time there, spending time in the large outdoor area which made me choose the nursery in the first place. Everyone is so lovely, I’d have no doubt choosing it again.

A Wonderful Nursery Experience Both of my daughters have attended Nurture Nursery in Marple, and we couldn’t be happier. My youngest is still there and will be until next September, meaning we’ll have used this fantastic nursery for a total of six years. Throughout that time, we’ve never had a single issue—nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff. They are incredibly supportive, kind, and attentive. Both of my girls have absolutely loved their time here. We use the nursery three days a week, and it’s always been a consistent, positive experience. I honestly couldn’t recommend Nurture Nursery enough! Parents Toye

Our son has been at nurture since he was 1 and he is now in the preschool room. In that time he has developed so much and we know a lot of it is down to the caring and dedicated staff at Nurture. His key worker in every room has had a lovely relationship with him and this has made the transition from one room to the next easier every time. When we talk to the staff at pick up each day, it is clear how well they know him and that they truly care about him and his development. It was an easy decision to sign our baby up to start at Nurture in 2026 because we know he will be looked after in the same way.

Both of my children have been at Nurture since 10 months old and have had the most fantastic time. I am a primary school teacher and can attest to the excellent education the children receive in each of the rooms. The staff are absolutely brilliant - everyone is warm and welcoming and really cares about your child. It truly feels like a family and I'm really sad my eldest is leaving for school!

Nurture is a lovely nursery. The facilities are fantastic including a huge garden. Most importantly, the staff all care so much about the children and many are really experienced in what they do. Managers are very responsive and overall it's a fantastic environment.
