We have been attending Little Faces for almost 2 years now. Our eldest son has now graduated and his confidence in joining Reception class was fantastic to see. Our youngest has now moved from the toddler room and his additional communication needs are so wet met that he is improving immensely. All
the staff are brilliant with both children and parents. Providing a well rounded early years experience, and preparing the children for life after nursery. Having tried multiple nurseries for my eldest child before finding Little Faces, I can wholeheartedly say that this is the only nursery that has exceeded all expectations.
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester AirportThank you so much for your wonderful review. Its been a joy to watch both of your children grow in confidence, and were delighted to hear how well theyve been supported throughout their journeys. Your kind words about our team and the experience we provide mean so much to us. We truly appreciate your trust and recommendation.

I truly feel lucky to have found this nursery for my son, Oliver. He has been attending since he was 9 months and is nearly 2 years old.
The staff are so caring and supportive, and it's been beautiful to see how much his confidence and development have grown.
He loves the great activities they provide,
and as a parent, it means everything to know he is happy, safe, and well looked after. I would highly recommend this nursery to other parents.
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester AirportThank you so much for your lovely review.

My daughter really struggled seperating from me when first starting nursery however she now goes in a very happy child and is content with all the staff. She has come on leaps and bounds and I feel a lot better leaving her and being away from her knowing she is having fun as well as learning and forming
relationships with people. She is also eating new foods at home since eating new meals at nursery which has helped us massively as my daughter had previously been a fussy eater.
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester AirportThank you so much for sharing this lovely feedback. Were delighted to hear how confidently your daughter now comes into nursery and how well shes settling, learning, and trying new foods. Its wonderful to see her progress, and were glad you feel reassured knowing shes happy and thriving with us.

We've been part of the Little Faces Family for over 7 years and love that many of the staff that were there then are still there now!
Both my children have both been so well looked after that we've always felt confident dropping them off in the morning knowing they'll have great fun.
The staff are
all brilliant and know the kids inside and out! They really do care!
We're now in our last year, as my youngest is due to go to school in September, and we'll be sad to say bye to everyone.
My eldest was prepared for school so well by little faces, she skipped into school and I think the foundations laid at nursery were invaluable. I'm positive it'll be the same for our youngest too!
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester AirportThank you so much for your lovely words! It means the world to the team to have been part of your familys journey for over 7 years. Were so proud to have supported both your children and to hear how confidently theyve grown. Well miss you all when your youngest heads off to school, but were excited to see them take that next step. Thank you for being such a special part of Little Faces.

We couldn't be more grateful for the incredible care and support this nursery has provided for our child with additional needs. From the very beginning, the team took the time to truly understand our child's individual strengths, challenges, and interests. They created a nurturing, inclusive environment
where our child feels safe, valued, and confident to explore and learn.
The staff show genuine patience, kindness, and expertise, adapting activities thoughtfully and celebrating every achievement, no matter how small. Communication with us as parents has been outstanding - open, honest, and supportive - giving us complete confidence that our child is in the best possible hands.
The progress we've seen, both socially and developmentally, has been wonderful. Most importantly, our child goes in happy and comes home proud. We wholeheartedly recommend this nursery to any family, especially those seeking a setting that truly embraces and supports children with additional needs.
Reply from Leah Hannon, Customer Service at Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester AirportThank you so much for your wonderful words. It means the world to our team to know that you feel supported and that your child is thriving with us. We're honored to be part of their journey and truly appreciate your trust in our nursery.

From the moment I step into the nursery, I know it is the place where I want to leave my baby boy. The staff always welcome us with warm and kind words. They are constantly smiling and take care of the babies as if they were their own.
I am truly happy with the skills my baby has gained during his time
there. He has become more independent and has learned so much. I would highly recommend this nursery to all my friends, and I will definitely be bringing my second baby here as well.

Amazing nursery, my son doesn't want to come home most days so have increased his attendance as he has so much fun with his friends. The staff and management are so friendly and my little boy loves them, they are there always to answer any questions and keep us updated on his day.
He's learnt so
much from being there and I couldn't ask for a better place for him to go and will be said when he leaves next year.

My Little girl has attended Little faces since being 17 months old after i moved her from another nursery and she is now 3 and a half. I only have great things to say about the management and staff and the nursery as a whole. From the minute I visited the nursery I knew this was the place for my little
girl to attend. She has come on so much and made amazing bonds with all the staff and loves to be at nursery. I always know she's in safe hands and content when here. The app is always updated with the meals and nappies through the day and she always has an observation put on weekly which I love to see how much she's developing and see the amazing activities they get up to. The communication between management/ staff towards us as parents is excellent and really reassuring that we are always updated and kept in the loop. I Would recommend this nursery to anyone.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.919)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.919) out of 10 for Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester Airport is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 35 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 35 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.919 for Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester Airport is calculated as follows: ( (389 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 419 Ratings = 4.919
  2. 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Little Faces Nursery @ Manchester Airport is based on 35 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 35 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
