Our Nursery Locations
We have been so impressed
We moved our son to Back To The Garden Childcare in Lymm at the start of 2023 when his previous setting closed down. The entire setting was only built in late 2022 so the first impression is that it is state of the art, from the security to the play area and toys. Everything is new which is great. In essence we have been so impressed and our son loves it. They have their own chef who does food preparation with the kids and the food choice is great. All the staff are so friendly and there seem to be so many activities every day from yoga to art. The location is away from main roads as well.

Just fantastic
Just fantastic. After taking the big decision to move our daughter from her previous nursery she has come on leaps and bounds at Back to the Garden Childcare! Wonderful to see her confidence growing and she really looks forward to her nursery days now. The staff are all so warm and friendly and really took the time to get to know our daughter, they even then incorporate her hobbies/interests into the day’s activities! Lots of outdoor time in the fantastic garden, nutritious, healthy meals cooked every day, we can’t recommend this nursery enough!
