View Full Details of Paintpots Manchester Day NurseryMy little girl has been admitted when she was 11 months old. We love the staff and management and my little one really enjoys there. Initially, we were a bit reluctant sending a small kid to nursery but the staff were really caring, friendly and supportive. She enjoys the food provided there. Really happy that I chose Paintpots for my little one and I would definitely recommend Paintpots.
The staff are very nice and my son has improved since he joined. It is a very good nursery. I wish the nursery's outside door and the main door could be a slide or automatic doors and I wish they had a waiting room.
All 3 of our children have attended PaintPots Nursery. They have been in all the different classes. We love the staff and management at the Nursery, the kids all loved coming to the Nursery and settled in well, due to the patience of the staff. The staff and management are caring, friendly, compassionate, loving and communicate well. Since 2020 to 2024 April our children have attended the nursery. I am not someone who writes reviews but felt the Nursery was deserving of one. 10/10.
So happy I sent my boy to Paintpots his development has come along amazing! Everyone here is so brilliant and supportive, he has been at Paintpots since he was 5 months old he is now two years old and in the toddler room! I will never regret my choice in picking Paintpots for my son's childcare.
My first choice was Paintpots as it had good recommendations. I've had all my 3 sons starting here, my first son started back in 2019 he had development issues and has grown in confidence throughout the years whilst there from first steps and talking and making friends with staff and children. I have placed my other 2 sons aged 2 years and 10 months old and they are expressing their personalities and they're always happy to be there, the staff are lovely and if I have an issue they will resolve it there and then. They have good toys for all ages, the staff like to explore different things to encourage my children and learn new things within their day
5 stars! Friendly people, cosy and family atmosphere. Our daughter started when she was 9 months old, and now she is 2! Since the first impressions, chatting with the nurses, we had felt confident about the place. All the classrooms, the outside garden, toys, furniture, and spaces are just thought and organized around children's needs. Great organisation for quiet time, too. Everything is at their hands. Rooms are good size and never too packed. Food is nutritious and home-made, she has been eating on her own since she was 12 months and that definitely is 'Paintpots' merit; she was a bit fussy at first and now she always asks: for more. Never had a disappointment. Communication and development assessments are accurate. The different activities planned daily look extremely fun, and we think she is having all the support to grow up into an audacious and happy little person. We all love this place, the best place we could have wished for her!
My son recently joined Paintpots, after them coming through via recommendation on a mums group on social media. As a lot of new mums/parents feel, I was nervous about returning to work and leaving my child in other people's care, however, it was the best thing I could have done. The nursery workers have been absolutely brilliant, my son loves nursery, full of smiles with his nursery worker and I can tell he’s come along way with his development milestones since joining too. I also like the daily updates I receive on their app, helps to feel connected and makes you feel better when you can see they’ve been enjoying their day and doing lots of activities. Brilliant nursery, would 100% recommend.
My little girl loves coming to nursery, she is always smiling when she comes home. The staff are amazing with her and all the other children. The managers and directors will go above and beyond to make sure all parents are happy with the service they get at the nursery and will sort any problems out straight away if needed. Everyone is so friendly. Thank you Paintpots for looking after my girl.
My son joined Paintpots almost a year ago after his first birthday. He started in the baby room and is currently in the room for 18-24-month-olds. My husband and I both knew Paintpots was our first choice upon our first visit when we were considering nurseries. There was just a lovely warm feeling to the place and above all, you could see the kids were happy and relaxed. A year on, we could not be more happy with our choice. The outside of the building may look a little shabby but its biggest strength is its incredible staff. We wanted a place not too big, not too small and Paintpots is just that - there is a real family feel there and everyone says hello. It is absolutely heartwarming to see the close bond my son has with the ladies who look after him. He does a wide range of different activities, has trips out, and he has progressed so much in confidence and ability. I would definitely recommend Paintpots.
My nephew loved his time there, he loved the staff and had strong relationships with them. He has now gone to school ready to begin his new chapter with the help from the staff getting him school ready.
Fantastic staff, they also organise great events for the kids to raise money for equipment for the children and all are so passionate in their work and responsibilities. So reassuring!
I cannot recommend this nursery enough. My child has been there for just over 2 years, and she absolutely loves it. The staff are brilliant and have a great bond with the children. The thought of sending a child to nursery can be really daunting, but they really made me feel at ease. My daughter has really benefited from being there, and I’m glad I chose Paintpots!
I am really happy with this nursery. They accept the child quickly and no need to wait to start with them. The staff are amazing and very close to children. Diversity of Activities in the nursery is great for children's learning and development. They have a lot of activities and trips. The nursery gives an opportunity for children to learn through messy and sensory play. My daughter enjoys and learns every day. She was very happy to join two different trips which were organized by the nursery. I am happy to keep my daughter in this nursery until she starts school.
My baby of 14 months attended Paint Pots nursery of Manchester (Charles street) for 1 month. Although the short-term and the fact that I was foreign, the manager accepted to settle my baby. The staff were excellent, super kind and very professional. At the end of the period, I and my baby were very sad to leave the nursery. We miss this nursery that revealed a top-level nursery.
I love Paintpots. My son has been at Paintpots since his first birthday and is now getting ready to leave for school now he's four, he has been in all the rooms in the nursery and in each room staff have been so caring and committed to his development. I couldn't ask for more. We also have a daughter who started at six months old and is currently one and a half, she is thriving at Paintpots and love how open everyone is. Staff are always there for a helping hand and offering all kinds of support. We are sad to say goodbye this year when our son goes to school although glad to still have our daughter here, who we know will grow to be a bright young girl at Paintpots. Thank you for everything.
My daughter has been at Paintpots Day Nursery for over 18 months and she has thrived in her time there. They play to her strengths whilst giving her the opportunity to learn more. I would absolutely recommend Paintpots Manchester to any parent.
My youngest has left for school recently but he is the 3rd child that has gone through Paint Pots over an 8 year period. Working in the city centre, there aren't many childcare options but I can't fault the managers for the nursery they run. It's amazing, a real home from home. The construction works haven't been ideal but now that they've almost finished, it's been worth the effort. I doubt there will be any more children, I think 3 is enough but I can't recommend Paintpots enough and I still pop in with the children if we're passing as they have a real bond with the staff.
My son loved it, he never wanted to leave and we only finished as we moved away and he was ready for school. The only gripe would be the outside could be a bit bigger, but it's the City Centre and what can you do!? The use of the Nursery minibus helps though and they visited the Science and Industry Museum, Sea Life Centre, Manchester Museum, it was just great. The girls are fantastic, I really mean that. We keep in touch regularly via Facebook, that's how much it means to our family!!
My twins attended Paintpots Manchester Day Nursery for 4 years whilst I worked in Manchester. The Managers were all excellent, always eager to help and the room leaders and key workers that both my children had were brilliant. I don't think we'll be having any more children, think 3 is enough :), however, I'd be more than happy to suggest Paintpots to anyone looking for a Nursery that's a little bit different than the identikit larger chains, much more personal!!
My daughter started at Paintpots in Feb'14 and has thrived under the care of the staff who have been attentive and supportive from day one. She enjoys all of the activities on offer especially the outdoor play. We are pleased with the variety of meals on offer and as such she is not a fussy eater at home. Her key workers have played an enormous part in her success with potty training, learning her colours/letters/numbers and we continue to be amazed at how far she has progressed in the last two years. We will have no qualms in sending our son to Paintpots on my return to work.
