View Full Details of Early Learners Nursery RuncornOur eldest attended the Nursery from the age of 6 months until right up to starting Primary school and we had a good experience with the setting then. Now we are having an even better experience than before. The nursery has very good management and an excellent staffing team. Everybody is fabulous and extremely helpful. If I have had any issues, they have been dealt with accordingly and professionally, this includes the ELN finance team.
An amazing nursery all the staff are lovely especially the baby room my little boy absolutely loves nursery settled in really well from the beginning and never had any issues. My child has come on so well speech and mobility wise since being in this nursery. Staff always up date you ASAP on your child and inform you if there is any minor incidents and always keep you up to date on the app with their day on feeding and sleep ect. They are always interacting with the children and doing activities with them. Regular updates on observations on the app too on their development couldn't ask for a better nursery or better staff.
My preverbal child started this nursery in Sep 24. He absolutely loved it for 7 months. Until a big staff change. He went from loving it, to being absolutely terrified. Even the sight of it he would scream! He cannot tell me with words, but I could see the state of him. I know something happened! He would come home absolutely traumatised every session. I had countless phone calls and meetings. Nothing ever changed, it just got worse. Staff are not trained correctly, especially with SEN children. The last day I picked him up, after yet another phone call that he was screaming to leave. I arrived at the nursery and was completely ignored by the manager. She knew everything that was happening with my son and just looked away, pretended not to see me! Even though I was standing right in front of her with a crying child. I have never been treated so rudely and unprofessionally before. Whenever we drive past it, he still screams. Beware of this nursery! I have given a full report to Ofsted.
I cannot fault this nursery . The staff are exceptional. So caring , committed to the job and welcoming . Our girls have been attending for over a year and we are continually impressed. They are thriving because of such a wonderful environment. I couldn't recommend this nursery more !
my daughter started at Early Learners in April and she has come along leaps and bounds in her development. She's catching up in her speech delay, knows all her colours, started counting to ten and recognises some letters. Her communication and building relationships with other children has progressed beautifully and she loves the staff. The staff have always been so happy and communicative with myself.
Removed my non verbal son from the care of this nursery. After a really positive start there with the previous manager and the room leader, we were soo happy as parents because we had anxiety about our son being in someone else's care. There was a change in management around April 2025, and my sons key worker "left". The difference within weeks was night and day. From being excited to do his routine and go to early learners to screaming in terror when he was on the bus on the way there.... Me and my sons mum tried a formal meeting with the manager. She is rude, obnoxious, and didn't know what was documented at the start of year with my non verbal son. She didn't offer any resolution, support, and didn't give us any confidence in her or the nursery during that meeting. After she listened to our issues she actually stated that she wouldn't bring her own kids here!!! 3 short sessions later it was very clear that nothing was changing and something was seriously upsetting our little boy we took him out.
Perfect nursery for any child to attend, staff and management are absolutely amazing no matter what, they will help in whatever way possible, kids are always happy going to and from nursery and tell me all about there day, they also have a app where they keep you upto date with progress and you can also direct message the nursery staff, on the ball with incidents, fab facilities outside, they even have a little plant grow, 10/10 would recommend this nursery to anyone and everyone!
My daughter has been coming to this nursery since she was 2.5. She absolutely loves it and loves all the teachers. As a mother who works 10 hours a day, I'm comfortable and confident leaving her. Thanks, girls for looking after my little girl.
Since starting nursery my boy has come on amazing. He has built good relationships with staff members as well as bonding with some friends. He seems to enjoy his time in the nursery and I think overall the nursery is a lovely place.
My child is always happy and smiling coming in and out of nursery, the girls work really hard to ensure each child reaches their full potential, they have supported my family through the tough times and I'll be forever grateful.
Early Learners is such a lovely place for children. The staff are lovely and know what they're doing. My child started January and he has come on so well. It's very clean and has plenty of toys and activities to do. I would recommend it to anyone
I honestly couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My little girl has come on so much since she started at 10 months old. The staff are amazing and my little girl loves them all.I am constantly kept in the loop with updates and pictures and you can email in the day and they get right back to which is nice. I had so much anxiety about sending her to nursery when she was so young but am so glad I did, she has moved rooms twice now and me and her dad have been kept updated with moves, now we get ready for move number three and they let us know that it was happen soon and that she would be have some time in there before the move up which has definitely helped with my anxiety. Thank you to all the amazing staff, we appreciate you so much.
My son attends this nursery and he is being tested for autism, the girls in the nursery are amazing with him and are so understanding of his differences and daily challenges and deal with him amazingly! I couldn't recommend a nursery more! He loves going to nursery too!
Very friendly staff always keep me updated with anything to do with my child take really good care of child and child always comes home happy with a smile of their face saying they have had a great day in nursery
Really good nursery, my child loves it there and loves seeing the staff. He eats really well and nutritional meals. The nursery staff are easy to contact for any questions and always give fast responses if I contact them via messages on the app
I am happy with the services, with how impactful is the outside educational for my son and how it's shaping his character and knowledge. I would however change the menu, and exclude screens at any level, this is something I am still confronting with as I am not aware for how long he watch screen during the day, if I have any time left for myself or not. This can be frustrating. Studies show that screens should be excluded before 3 year old, but this is not really happening. All the staff is nice, caring for kids. Advantages and disadvantages, as in any setting.
My little girl started at Early Learners at around 16 months old and left when she was 4. During that time she spent time in all of their rooms. Her whole experience there was fantastic. All of the staff really look after the children and get to know them personally. Staff have always been helpful with things such as potty training and sleep issues. My daughter left with confidence, resilience, social skills and lots of knowledge of phonics and maths. My daughter has food intolerances and the cook always went the extra mile to make sure that she was given a suitable meal which she could enjoy and she never missed out on any treats. Thanks to Early Learners my child was ready for school and she is now flourishing there.
Absolutely fantastic nursery! The staff are so lovely and I feel very reassured leaving my child with them. I always get lots of updates and pictures on the app and my child always comes home with lots of smiles.
It is a very good nursery with excellent staff and is in an excellent location. Personally, I like it a lot because the staff are very friendly. I like it because they have early hours. They are excellent caregivers for children.
I honestly couldn't recommend this nursery enough. My little girl has come on so much since she started in October. The staff are amazing and you can tell how much they love all the children. I am constantly kept in the loop with updates and pictures. I had so much anxiety about sending her to nursery I just wish I would have known how good it was going to be and how much she would love it. Thank you to all the amazing staff, we appreciate you so much.
