Corner House Trafford believes in seeing children as individuals. Their ethos is to work closely with and build meaningful relationships with children and their families. Their teams work closely with the families ensuring they feel confident from the onset, starting with the very first session in their home visits to the personal visits with their Key Person.

The Key person’s role is to support the child and their family as they begin to make relationships within the setting. Information sharing is integral to ensure that staff always provide the best possible experiences for each of them.

The baby unit consists of a beautiful light open environment with immediate accesses a separate garden and baby sleep room. Above all the babies at nursery feel loved and cared for. During this important phase, babies are exploring the world with all of their senses and their whole bodies and so the activities and experiences they plan with the babies support and encourage children’s strong exploratory impulses.

The nursery is purpose-built with specifically designed outdoor areas which naturally encourage the children to independently access both the indoor and outdoor environments. Children’s development and experiences are recorded through the online software (ParentZone). Parents are encouraged to share their child’s interests directly with their Key Person, this is then planned for as part of the child's next step to further support their development.

The nursery's team of cooks work endlessly to provide well balanced nutritional meals for all of the children. Using the Eat Better Start Better guidelines the children enjoy a four weekly menu providing a wide variety of dishes.

The nursery supports my child with a wide variety of activities and nurtures her as she grows. A brilliant place to go. I can't recommend it enough. My little girl started in the baby room at 10 months and has developed in leaps and bounds. Her key worker has been fantastic in building really strong
relationships with with both her and us and I really couldn't ask for more. Every effort is made to plan for her development with excellent home links to support activities and strengthen her interests and give us ideas to develop at home. My daughter is ready to move to the next room and we are really going to miss where she has been but know she will receive the same level of love, care and support as she grows. We thought we had made the right choice for her nursery place and now are in no doubt. Thank you Village Nursery!

We moved our 2 year old from another nursery to attend the Village as the cost/location was more suitable (and the hobbit house at the entrance!!) We were nervous about the move but he soon settled down due to the lovely welcoming staff. I cannot recommend the Nursery enough, they treat every child
as an individual and focus on 'their' interests as well as involving the whole class. The facilities are great and the rooms are full of natural light. The access to the garden is a huge bonus and he often doesn't want to come home... I have particularly enjoyed the parent participation days - The Carnival where a CBeebies personality made an appearance, Mother's Day Event where we planted Sunflowers and Bedtime stories where all the children had to wear nightwear. Unfortunately we are relocating shortly and we will be extremely sad to leave, i just wish we could take the Nursery with us!!!

A fantastic nursery, it really is a wonderful place where my daughter has blossomed so much since starting in the babies room. All the staff are lovely and genuinely care for each child, they have all gone above and beyond our expectations! The nursery offer a healthy and varied menu and encourage the
children to try everything, they have also introduced my daughter to lots of different foods. The rooms are well laid out with lots of different activities on offer, and the garden is huge with sand pits and a mud kitchen! At the end of each day you are given detailed information about what you child has done, and what food they ate or tried. We have really enjoyed the special events for grandparents day and mothers/fathers day, especially the weekend events like pirate parties.

Fantastic nursery with endless opportunities. The amount of parent events is fantastic, and staff are always well trained and pass on information.


Excellent facilities and I feel valued as a parent.


As someone who works with Ofsted and trains educators, I was nervous about selecting a nursery,

due to the amount of 'horror cases' I've had to investigate. However, The Village Nursery hands down beat all others we looked at.

The Village Nursery is truly an outstanding nursery. Both my boys have benefited hugely from the caring and stimulating environment. The staff are very child centred and focus activities on the individual child's interests, as well as group activities. The professionalism of the team really stands out.
The building and grounds are very well maintained and the gardens are fantastic. Whatever the weather, the babies and children are encouraged to explore and enjoy the outdoors. The food is healthy, varied and interesting. It's a wonderful place to be!

The Village provides an outstanding quality of care and is such a special and joyful place with a team of talented and extremely committed staff who put the children at the centre of everything they do.
The management and senior staff are approachable and effective, fostering strong relationships
between nursery and home. Daily communication is excellent and progress reports are regular and thorough.
Learning and development at every age is fun, creative and challenging, with the nursery's excellent facilities and resources matching the teaching ambitions of the staff.
My daughter has grown into a happy, confident and sociable 3 year old thanks to the loving and secure environment of The Village.

My daughter has been at The Village since being 6 months old. Over the last 3 and half years she has developed fantastic relationships with the amazing staff team. The environment is brilliant! All the rooms are really spacious and there are always lots of improvements being made. The garden is a fantastic
space and its great how all the rooms open onto the garden, meaning children can access it at all times.
There really is a big focus on care and all the practitioners understand how important it is that each child receives lots of love during their day at nursery. The food is amazing and they have a wide range of different meals available.
They also carry out lots of parent events during the year which are great to attend and helps to make you feel like you are not missing out whilst at work. Its in a great location too!

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.537)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.537) out of 10 for Corner House Nursery Trafford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.994 for Corner House Nursery Trafford is calculated as follows: ( (177 Excellents x 5) + (1 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.994

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.543 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Corner House Nursery Trafford is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 138 number of registered child places is 27.6. 15 Positive Reviews ÷ 27.6 = 0.543

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
