  • Future Champions Day Nursery Chorley, Chorley
Future Champions Chorley Day Nursery's ethos is to ensure that every child feels loved and cherished as they realise the 'champion' inside.

Staff encourage every child to be unique and achieve this by affirmation and character building, as well as through exciting and limitless activities that not only link to the unique curriculum, but also the interests of the children.

Caring, skilled staff treat children with respect and learn to understand their personalities, what stimulates them and what makes them smile, through spending time with both children and parents throughout the stay and play sessions and themed days regularly throughout the year.

External chefs work with the in-house chef to create a balanced and nutritious menu that children can enjoy. Preferences and allergies are catered for in a robust and transparent way. Where possible, local fruit, veg and meat is responsibly sourced and efforts made to reduce the nursery's carbon footprint.

Review from D W (Mother of Child) published on 24 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
A nursery is only as good as the workforce within it. When we visited the nursery as possibility for our children, it was portrayed as a beautiful family run setting with a genuine love and care for the children. Sadly the nursery was sold as my children started some months later. With the sale came
a new manager who was not particularly good. She could never remember the name of my children or which room they were in and you could see her management style caused the workforce to leave in droves. This was a very unsettling experience for my children who had to get used to many new faces in quick succession.


Since November 2024, the setting has been blessed with a new manager, who is proactively making real changes to bring that family quality back to the setting. I feel hopeful for the future of the setting in her hands. I would also like to pay credit to some of the other staff who stuck through the worst you are all great and a credit to the nursery.

Recently moved over to Future Champions Chorley and all staff have made it incredibly easy for my child! He had issues with other nursery setting and the transition hasn't fased him at all and this is down to the staff's professional attitude and caring techniques.


The best decision I have made,

hands down.


I have a happier little boy and he's thriving in his new environment.


Thanks to all the team! Your doing amazing.

Our son started off terrified of being left by Mummy and Daddy. For a month, the Nursery Practitioners made sure to ring us to let us know he had settled after each visit, helping us also with the transition. He now gets more upset the days he doesn't go to pre-school and Future Champions and the team
played a pivotal role in making this change easy for him.


Outstanding.

Our boy has been at Future Champions for nearly two years now and we all love it. The staff are so caring that we feel safe leaving him and know he is being really well looked after. The activities are always engaging and stimulating and he is learning lots whilst enjoying himself. Perhaps the most
important part, however, is the fact they really know my son and appreciate his personality. They tailor activities to suit because they understand him meaning his needs are met when he's there. Thanks for all that you do.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and always looks set up well for an exciting day. The staff have plenty of time to welcome/settle children at the start and to give feedback at the end of the day.
Our grandson has settled in fantastically. He has global developmental delay but thanks to the excellent
care and targeted plans has made brilliant progress.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Future Champions for 3 years and my daughter is just about to start. The nursery has been fantastic from start to finish and the fact they have both gone in each time with excitement and open arms is testament to this. The staff are kind, nurturing and caring. Communication is fantastic,
thorough and frequent. Management are friendly, know each child by name and are always available to speak to both formally and informally. All staff are ever present and the curriculum is planned meticulously and communicated weekly, with each child’s interest playing a central role. I’d highly recommend this nursery. It was recommended to me by a colleague (primary school teacher) who said, ‘It’s the only nursery I’ve been to where the staff love them like their own’ and I have found this to be acutely accurate.

Both my little ones attend Future Champions and have done so since they were 12 months old. We looked around lots of local nurseries and this one just stood out. The staff are lovely, the rooms are really clean and they have high expectations of the children whilst being a caring and nurturing environment.
They do lots of fun activities each day, learn lots of new things and the children enjoy going.

Our son has attended Future Champions for three and a half years on a full time basis and apart from one negative member of staff the whole experience has been superb. Children are always cared for, the food offering is good in a changing world, there's loads of equipment and outside space for the kids
to explore. In pre-school the children have been to the theatre and are taking part in weekly PE classes. All in all a well run setting with strong management.

Future Champions is a home from home for the children.


Been able to go to work and know your child is having the most wonderful time, learning, playing and discovering the world. All while in safe hands and a loving environment is all you can ask for


The food is home cooked and nursery is super

clean. We are kept well informed on our child day to day (eat, sleep, nappies) as well as progress updates and activities during the day along with pictures via the famly app.


The team are fantastic amd know all the children's names no matter which class they are in. As a patent we are made to feel welcome and get a good update at the end of each day.


Thanks you to everyone a Future Champions for making our weeks possible without any worries!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son started at Future Champions Day Nursery a year ago when he was 8 months. When we looked around we knew that was where our son should go, only looking at one other nursery we booked him in at Future Champions.
Day 1 the staff were amazing and so reassuring. I was given a little pack with Tissues,
a tea bag and a KitKat and a lovely little note and then was kept up to date all day.


He moved up from the baby room to tinies in January so we have experienced 2 rooms and all staff are lovely. The Manager is always around and seems to know every child by name.


The facilities are great, the rooms lovely, the outside play areas amazing and they get the children out and about to the local park or for a walk. I love the app they use to update you throughout the day too (incl pictures). The staff also really listen. The children have focus weeks every so often and if you give the staff feedback on your child's current interests they always incorporate what you have said. Overall an amazing nursery!

Future Champions Day Nursery are Fantastic! I’ve had the pleasure of sending all my children to this nursery since 2017. The ladies who work here are all super friendly and caring. It feels very much like a family than a business. The activities they do each day are great. I especially love the Famly
app they use to keep parents updated on the fun the children have been having. I wouldn’t send my children anywhere else! Highly recommended!

My daughter turns 4 in August and has been going to Future Champions in Chorley since she was 9 months old. I couldn’t imagine sending my daughter to any other nursery.
The staff are brilliant, friendly and professional at all times, building a nice bond with the children to help gain trust and leaving
them settled in the environment.
The nursery is always clean and you can clearly see the values and standards that is implemented into the staff.
The nursery is equipped with everything a child needs to be able to learn and develop whilst having fun along the way!
The communication is second to none and the app is a perfect way to put your mind at ease when initially sending your child to nursery which can be a daunting experience in itself.
I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone and I’m absolutely dreading the day she finishes for big girls school as we will miss the place so much!

Current Review Score: 8.5 (8.497)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.5 (8.497) out of 10 for Future Champions Day Nursery Chorley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.9 out of 5 from 6 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 4.597 for Future Champions Day Nursery Chorley is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.597
  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 3.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Future Champions Day Nursery Chorley is based on 6 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 = 3.6
    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 100 number of registered child places is 20. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 20 = 0.3
  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.
