  • Corner House Nursery Wistaston, Crewe
Corner House Wistaston provides an exceptional early childhood environment for children to grow and learn. The bright, airy rooms paired with a fantastic outdoor space offer families a highly stimulating setting where children can thrive.

By closely listening to parents, children and the staff, the nursery constantly improves in everything from the settling in process to the day the child moves on to their next step.

The focus on listening allows the nursery to create an understanding of what each individual child needs to do well in their early years and how to ensure they are well-prepared to start school.

Teaching children about health and nutrition is embedded in the routine and curriculum at the nursery.

My daughter has recently started in the baby room at Corner House Nursery and I’ve been really pleased with the settling-in process. All the staff are lovely and clearly know the children well, helping them to settle into their new environment. When we collect, the staff always give us an update on
what she’s been up to and she always seems to have had a really exciting day! The meals are varied and any requests we make, in terms of bottles, nappies etc., are followed.

Brilliant staff who nurture and support both the children and the families. They have an amazing knowledge of everything from weaning and potty training to temper tantrums! They helped my baby settle so well that now when I hand her over she has no tears and happily plays with no separation anxiety
(not even 1 year yet!) Despite having a lot of needs all the staff have been very accommodating and I feel very secure and happy that she is getting the best care.

My little girl started at Corner House in November 2023 at 11 months old. Since the very beginning, the staff have been so caring and supportive and made my little girls' transition so easy. She absolutely loves going to nursery and has settled in quickly. Although she has only been there a short while,
the staff have built up a strong relationship with her, and I feel confident to leave her in their care. She has come on leaps and bounds in her social skills and physical development, and her appetite has increased. The staff keep us well updated with her daily activities online as well as at pick-up, and it's lovely to see her thriving. Thank you for everything you have already done, and we are looking forward to seeing her flourish at Corner House over the next few years.

The Corner House Nursery is a place my daughter attends on Thursdays. She is now in the toddler room, having started off in the baby room. She’s thrived since being there as the staff are brilliant, every single one of them is helpful/caring and just seem to want the best for each child. My daughter
definitely benefits from having her own key worker which allows my daughter to have a familiar face she works with. I love hearing how her day has gone on as the staff’s attention to detail for each child is second to none. I love having the app and seeing updates added regarding my daughter which are uploaded by her key worker. Everyone who works here should be proud of themselves for the amazing jobs that they do. I feel safe knowing my daughter is in such good hands.

The staff have been absolutely amazing, so caring and supportive. My child has settled in so much better than expected because of the relationships the staff have built with her. They always have time for a chat about her progress and we feel so reassured and happy leaving her in their care. Her social
skills, physical skills and eating/drinking have come on in leaps and bounds and she is so much more confident.

Our daughter has been at Corner House since she was nine months old. She settled in so fast, thanks to the great staff. We can already tell that the interaction she gets at nursery has really brought her on. She loves going to nursery, and I think she wishes it was open at the weekend! We love getting
photo updates throughout her time there and seeing how happy she is there. Would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents.

My daughter has settled really well in the toddler room, she only goes one day a week and loves it. One member of the team, in particular, really stands out. My daughter's face lights up when we talk about her and she’s always on the ball when we see her! She's a true asset to the nursery and I would
definitely recommend it, the team are really friendly.

My daughter is in the toddler room and moved from another nursery, she settled in so well. I think this was due to how excellent the staff are. I’ve found the nursery very friendly and homely, all the key workers really care and will put in one hundred and ten per cent effort to tailor the care to your
child. Especially through the pandemic when it’s been tough on everyone, they have done everything they can to provide a safe environment. The communication is fantastic and they keep you up to date. I would really recommend the nursery and think it’s excellent value for money.

The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd has been brilliant for my son who has been attending the preschool since last year in preparation for school. I love how the setting strives to continually improve the children’s learning environments and how friendly the staff are. The best bit is that my son enjoys his
time there, learning all sorts whilst having fun!

Speaking from my son’s experience he absolutely loves The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd. He speaks very highly of all the staff and will eat all kinds of foods that he won’t touch at home. Since moving from another nursery in November he’s come on leaps and bounds socially. He’s happy to go in a morning,
in fact some weekends he’d rather be at nursery. It's great to talk to him about what he’s done and learnt, we’ve discussed bones and brains in our bodies to bees and tadpoles and all things nature. The introduction of Forest School is right up his street and he gets very excited on a Thursday when one member of staff in particular is there doing outdoor activities. I can’t recommend The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd enough.

Our daughter has been at the nursery since she was ten months old, she is now two years and three months. The staff at the nursery are fantastic, caring, friendly and approachable. Our daughter absolutely loves nursery, even on days when she was a little upset going in, the staff always put our mind
at ease and send updates throughout the day of what the children are doing and how they are. It was the best decision we made sending her to The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd, we couldn't be happier with our choice. Everything from the staff, to the facilities and the food, is second to none.

This is a lovely nursery. My little boy has been attending for seven months, since he was fifteen months old and he's thrived, he has such a great time there. All of the staff are lovely, nothing is too much trouble and I receive regular photos and updates of the various activities that are going on.
He's recently moved from the baby room to the toddler room and the whole transition was handled so smoothly and with his best interests at heart. I have already recommended The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd to several friends.

Our daughter has been with the nursery since 10-months-old (she starts big school in September) and has loved every single minute. She has developed really quickly and is always excited to go to the nursery to see her friends and the staff. She regularly comes home telling us about all the things she
has been doing. Our son will be attending the nursery when he turns one.

Reply from Leanne Foley, Acting Manager at Corner House Nursery Wistaston

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We will certainly miss you all when they go to school - it's been a pleasure to have your family at The Nursery, and can't wait for your little boy to start.

Our child has settled so quickly at The Nursery (Wistaston) Ltd and loves to attend. I’m really impressed at how the indoor setting has been refurbished and updated with some fantastic resources. I’m so pleased they have recently announced they will doing forest school as that’s such an exciting activity
for children. Our child also has an egg and dairy allergy and the nursery has been fantastic in offering him alternatives, it’s even better that all the food is cooked on-site too.

Reply from Leanne Foley, Assistant Manager at Corner House Nursery Wistaston

Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased your little boy has settled so well. We have worked hard to refurbish and enhance the rooms for the children here at The Nursery ensuring they receive many different learning experiences. Our Forest School teacher has become a fast favourite with all of the children, they really look forward to her sessions.
Our wonderful Chef, works hard to ensure all dietary needs are adhered to and the children who have these requirements have the same food if not very similar, I will pass on your lovely comments.

most definitely recommend this nursery to others.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.533)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.533) out of 10 for Corner House Nursery Wistaston is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 10 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 10 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 4.908 for Corner House Nursery Wistaston is calculated as follows: ( (109 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 120 Ratings = 4.908

  • 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 4.625 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Corner House Nursery Wistaston is based on 10 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 80 number of registered child places is 16. 10 Positive Reviews ÷ 16 = 0.625

  • 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.
