Gelston Manor Day Nursery - Chorley

Melissa M.

Gelston manor is such an amazing place for kids! The house is stunning & the outdoor area is unmatched. It really does feel like a little community. They're outside exploring rain or shine. The new forest school has also took the nursery to another level - it’s so cool & the teacher is lovely and really gets to know the children.

Our son did a year at another nursery and never settled but after a month here he’s loving it
(& his speech has improved tenfold).

Just wanted to give a lil shout out to the team there who are such genuinely lovely people who really make effort to get to know your child as well as the families. I wish our son came here sooner but thankful he can attend here until school! 🩷🩷

We are so impressed and grateful for all that the staff do, day in and day out for our son. They well and truly go above and beyond at all times. Our son has been at Gelston since turning 1 so we have experienced the baby room (bunnies), toddler room (owlets) and now preschool (owls). At each age, I
couldn't say enough positives about the staff, and their care, passion and knowledge within their roles - at all levels. A special shout-out has to go to three members of staff in particular, our son's key workers, they are incredible members of staff who have made the nursery journey seamless and enjoyable at all times. And of course, this wouldn't be possible without the outstanding management. We are also incredibly grateful for the time and effort that goes into updating the communication app daily - this gets us through the day. Thank you. We couldn't recommend Gelston enough.

Gelston Manor has been a huge part of our family for over 4 years. We have entrusted the staff with the care of both of our children from being babies, a decision that is never easy for parents but we immediately felt that this was the perfect place for them to grow and learn. Fantastic outdoor space that you really won't find anywhere else. A curiosity approach style of learning and development, in a beautiful setting. Take a look, you won't regret it ☺️

Our son recently joined Gelston Manor Day Nursery and has loved every moment. The staff are extremely friendly and the nursery is set in an amazing location with great space for outdoor activities for the children. A truly great place for children and their development!

Amazing nursery inside and out!! Staff are all amazing with children and proof is that they almost cry when they leave, fresh cooked food everyday respecting a child’s balanced diet! Endless outdoor activities which means children feel they’re in an adventure every single day rather than an artificial restricted back yard like seen in so many other nurseries. Also, great emphasis on natural materials for toys and creative playing aligned more with Montessori methods. This is the best nursery we could have chosen for our twins!!!!We’re so lucky and can’t recommend them enough to friends!!!

Highly recommended, amazing key workers, homemade food, beautiful rennovated nursery rooms and an amazing outside play space. We looked at many nurseries in the area, but when we viewed Gelston we knew immediately it was the right place for us. Our little one has settled in well in his first week with no tears at drop offs and by day two babbling away and loving his time at nursery. Our key worker tells us all about his day, sends us photos and works with us to try new foods, experiences and share his progress. We are looking forward to seeing him developer further and make friends for life along the way. The nursery managers also share useful links of funs things to do at home, receipes etc which is really useful especially throughout lockdown.
