The Learning Hive Nursery School - Manchester

Absolutely brilliant nursery, our son when he started in June had delayed social interaction and speech. He’s come on leaps and bounds and he really enjoys his time at the learning hive. All the staff are great with him, especially Ellie who spends a lot of time one on one with our son. I couldn’t recommend the learning hive enough.

My son has been going to rocking horse for over 2 months now and he loves it. The staff are fantastic with him and he is always happy to see them in the mornings which makes it much easier for me to leave him. I love reading his daily notebook and seeing what he has been up to each day. The staff are so friendly and genuinely care about the children and helping them develop and grow. I would highly recommend this nursery

Cannot fault this nursery at all. The staff are amazing. My little boy has been going since he was 11 months and is now 4yrs. He leaves next year. I have been an over protective and worry parent but the staff really eased my worries and helped us both to adjust to nursery life. Over the time the staff have continued to be fully supportive in every way and my little boy loves it there. He has made great friends and good bonds with the staff. The food they serve is brilliant. Would highly recommend 👍

Struggle to fault this nursery. Our daughter has been attending since she was about 9 months. She's now 15 months. Everyone remarks about how much she's changed. She's happy, confident (sometimes TOO confident 🤣) and well looked after. She loves her carers, who all take her a real interest in her and us as parents. Communication is good. We liked the separate rooms here as opposed to the other nurseries we viewed.

Would have to highly recommend Carol, Jennie, Clare and the manager Mandi.

I already know we'll be sad when she leaves 😪

Me and my family absolutely love this nursery!
My son previously attended the nursery and started not being able to speak much English, but thanks to their support he learned to speak perfectly in just 3 months.
My baby is now attending and I couldn’t be more happy about her development progress.
The staff is amazing, professional and caring, always providing personalised care according to the children needs.
Both my kids love spending time there and not a tear has been cried after the first week.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, as we are both key workers, they have supported us, allowing the kids to attend and putting themselves at risk, so we could keep attending work and they have always accommodated us, even with short notice.
They also provide you with an app where your child’s daily activities, meals, naps, etc are logged in and where they share their development and pictures.
I personally love it, as it makes you feel more present in your child’s school life.
Would definitely recommend!

Our daughter has been attending Rocking Horse for almost a year and she absolutely loves it . The staff are brilliant and all know her really well and every time I go to collect her in the evening she is happy and content and I am told by staff how her day has been and what she has been doing ( this is also noted in her daily activity book to read at home), there is a real focus on early years development and we have definately noticed how much our daughter has developed since being at the nursery. As working parents you just want to know your child is safe, happy and looked after while you are away from them at work and this is definately the case with Rocking Horse . If you are thinking of sending your little one here I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

My little boy has been attending this nursery since he was 8 months old. He absolutely loves it, seeing all his friends. All the staff members are so nice and welcoming. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

My son has attended this nursery since he was 6 months old and loves it.
Staff are great and truly get to know your child and keen on development.
They have lots of different play areas and a pet corner.
I would highly recommend them.
