Day Nurseries Reviews

What Parents Say About Our Nursery

‘I collected my grandsons on the afternoon their parents were away. I was extremely impressed by the protocols regarding safety for the boys, even though this was prearranged. All staff were friendly and there is clearly a happy atmosphere, with plenty of positive experiences provided for the children.
Having been an early years specialist, involved in visiting and inspecting many nurseries, I can honestly say that I am delighted my family are able to be part of Corner House.
This is a great place for little ones to learn and thrive.
Thank you especially to two members of staff in particular.’

Angela A

‘We have used Corner House Nursery for over five years now and have always been incredibly happy with the care our children have received. Staff genuinely care about the happiness, well-being and development of the children in their care and there are always exciting and engaging activities on offer.
We couldn’t recommend them highly enough!’

Outdoor Discovery: Growing, Learning, and Playing in Nature

We love to get outside at Corner House Trafford Park! We have substantial gardens providing opportunities for outdoor learning across all areas of the curriculum. We also have our very own Hobbit House at the front of the building!

As well as access to our fabulous outdoor play areas, children of all ages enjoy regular walks in the local area. We take children out in groups, come rain or shine, to take part in a variety of activities set up by our staff. Wherever possible we try to take our indoor learning outside. We have physical activities with Mr Ross outside with our Preschool children too!

During our time outside we teach children how to assess risk, problem solve, share, gather and utilise from nature as we are committed to teach our children about their environment and the effect we have on it in our day to day lives.

We always make strides to be an environmentally friendly nursery, making changes wherever we can to make the world a cleaner place.

Our youngest children are often seen out in our buggies enjoying the fresh air, sights and sounds of the local community. We use high visibility vests to keep children safe when out on trips away from the nursery. All children leave wellington boots and waterproof clothing at nursery so they can be appropriately dressed for all seasons!

Caring for Every Stage: From Babies to Pre-Schoolers

Baby Room (0-2 years)

Nurturing Beginnings
Our baby room provides a calm, safe, and stimulating environment where our babies can explore, discover, and develop at their own pace. With a strong focus on sensory play, close one-to-one care, and gentle routines, we create a loving space where babies feel secure, happy, and encouraged to take their first steps in learning.

Toddler Room (2-3 years)

Exploring and Growing
At this curious and energetic stage, toddlers thrive in a space designed for discovery, movement, and social interaction. Through hands-on activities, messy play, early language development, and guided exploration, we nurture independence while ensuring children feel supported in their growing confidence and abilities.

Pre-School Room (3-5 years)

Ready for Big Adventures
As children prepare for their next steps into school life, our pre-school room offers a structured yet playful approach to learning. With a mix of phonics, numeracy, creative expression, and problem-solving activities, we build essential skills while encouraging curiosity, teamwork, and self-confidence, ensuring a smooth transition to reception.
