My child absolutely loves Simon House Nursery. The staff are amazing - so caring and supportive. They've really helped with speech and language development, toilet training, and building confidence. My child looks forward to going in every day and comes home talking about the nice things they've done throughout their day. I’ve seen such amazing progress. Thank you so much!

Simon House is a wonderful nursery with excellent staff, who value and nurture each child. The progress the children make whilst under their care is exceptional. All staff members go above and beyond for the children and families. We are very pleased with the nursery and would highly recommend to others. The waitlist is long but is absolutely worth it!

A wonderful nursery. My son has come on leaps and bounds with support from all the staff. Brilliant communications with parents throughout the year and whenever necessary, it genuinely feels like one big family! Every member of staff we have been in contact with is knowledgable, professional and kind. We can’t wait to send our daughter here too. I would (and do) highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for somewhere for their children to thrive and be happy.

Highly recommend this nursery! My little boy has been going since he was 15 months and he is now in pre school and has thrived and flourished whilst being here. The staff are kind, professional and supportive. After viewing a few in the area this nursery definitely stands out as the best!

By far, the best decision we ever made as family was to stay on the waiting list for 7+ months. Trust me when I say this, there’s a reason why there’s a waiting list, Simon House is an extraordinary setting for your children. I have two kids at this nursery and all the staff have gone above and beyond for them both. My eldest has additional needs and the nursery were so helpful in identifying them. The consistent communication with us as parents, as to how we could help my little girl was fantastic. Mrs Mortin, the head of setting has done so much for my children’s development. This nursery isn’t a matter of give us your money and we baby sit your kids. Simon House has a massive emphasis on Education & Development. We used to go to a nursery called kids around the clock in chadderton (google them). A child in my daughter’s class there was seriously injured. So, as you can imagine, as parents going through that, we made sure Simon House was held to high standards & they didn’t disappoint.

Trust me when I say this, there’s a reason why there’s a waiting list, Simon House is an extraordinary setting for your children. I have two kids at this nursery and all the staff have gone above and beyond for them both.\n\nMy eldest has additional needs and the nursery were so helpful in identifying them. The consistent communication with us as parents, as to how we could help my little girl was fantastic.\n\nMrs Mortin, the head of setting has done so much for my children’s development. This nursery isn’t a matter of give us your money and we baby sit your kids. Simon House has a massive emphasis on Education & Development.\n\nWe used to go to a nursery called kids around the clock in chadderton (google them). A child in my daughter’s class there was seriously injured. So, as you can imagine, as parents going through that, we made sure Simon House was held to high standards & they didn’t disappoint.",
