    My son recently started attending at Monkey Puzzle Altrincham and much to my delight he has settled in so well considering he hadn’t ever attended any baby or toddler groups due to lockdown. The staff are friendly and polite and keep me well informed on my son’s day. The nursery has a home from home feel and the setup of the classrooms are both inviting and engaging. The indoor-outdoor garden is my sons favourite place to be as he loves riding on the bikes.
    The menu on site is very exotic and the children are exposed to a wide variety of different cuisines. All food is cooked fresh onsite by the chef and the nursery use local suppliers to buy fresh produce. The senior management team are very approachable and knowledgeable which puts our minds at ease as we know the nursery is in good hands. Give this place a try! If you are looking for a nursery that doesn’t feel corporate then this is the place you’re looking for. Friendly, caring, polite and professional.

    Both of my children have thrived at Monkey Puzzle. The quality of education and care they receive there is outstanding. The staff are all warm, nurturing and enthusiastic. There is an excellent balance between education and play, so the children do phonics, maths, learn Spanish, learn about cultural and religious events, do yoga, but also have lots of time for imaginative play, art and craft. The food is excellent, healthy and varied. There is very good communication between the staff and parents, and we get daily updates and photos of their activities as well as regular updates on their progress and development. My children have been so happy and settled at Monkey Puzzle and have formed strong bonds with both the staff and the other children. I highly recommend this nursery.

    My little girl has been at Monkey Puzzle for 2 and a half years now and she has always loved it. The staff are excellent, very caring and really take the time to get to know her and teach her in the way that works best for her. The food is fantastic – so varied and she eats much better at nursery than she does at home. The app they use to send pictures, updates and other general information to us is brilliant. It really settled my nerves when I first sent her in when I started back at work to be kept up to date at any point during the day and I still check this now. We have been so impressed with how much our little girl is learning, she comes out with new songs and Spanish every week, – it is lovely to see and it has also helped her grow into the confident little girl that she is today. We couldn’t recommend Monkey Puzzle highly enough.

    We love Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery – our little boy is thriving there, we feel comfortable handing him over each morning and he comes out with a big smile on his face at the end of each day. The staff are all amazing. The chef has introduced great tastes and flavours too so our little boy is a great eater as well!

    Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery has been the most perfect environment for our son to grow up in. They have supported his development in every way and he’s learning so much. He is excited to go to “school” every day and has a lovely network of friends to play with. He’s been through three rooms now and every time he has been allocated a key worker who he has developed a great relationship with. All the staff are so kind and friendly. They really prioritise the children and their care and safety and I really feel like he is nurtured there. We love it.

    I have only positive things to say about Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery. Communication between staff and parents is excellent, the nursery is beautifully designed and maintained, and you can really tell the staff care. Our daughter only started there in April, and she settled in beautifully, going in with a smile every day. The staff took the time to get to know her and help her adjust, and we can send her in without any worries knowing she is safe and happy. A truly wonderful nursery.

    My son has been attending Monkey Puzzle since he was 9 months old and is now in the preschool room. He has been very happy there in all the different rooms. The staff are wonderful and the daily feedback we get on the app is brilliant. I always feel completely happy that he is well cared for and looked after. They do an excellent variety of activities with the children and the meal variation and variety is excellent too. I would 100% recommend this nursery.

    Our little boy has attended Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery since the end of March, he has settled in so well and has the biggest smile on his face when we get to nursery each morning. The staff have been amazing with him and have built lovely relationships with him in a short space of time.
    He has come on so much since he started at Monkey Puzzle, the staff work on personalised targets and we receive regular updates with his progress.
    We love seeing the updates with photographs and information about what the babies have been up to each day. They regularly go out on trips around the local area. We love Monkey Puzzle and are so glad we chose this nursery!

    Our 2 year old loves Monkey Puzzle Altrincham. She talks about her friends there all the time and is obviously very happy.
    The staff are wonderful and the children go on trips to the local parks and library which they thoroughly enjoy. There is a focus on learning and education but also on the children having fun.
    Knowing our daughter is content, makes us, as parents, completely delighted with the care she receives at Monkey Puzzle Altrincham.

    Before our son started with Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery. I was nervous as I didn’t know what to expect or how he would adapt to this big change. The managers couldn’t have done anymore to answer all my questions and put me at ease. The staff are all so lovely and caring and our son settled into the nursery environment really well.
    He’s moved to the next room now and is continuing to thrive. I love getting the photos and updates on the app to see what he’s been up to, especially in the early weeks and months I found this very helpful and reassuring. I can see a real bond between our son and his key worker which as a mum is so lovely to see. Communication has always been very good and the owners are very responsive and understanding. We really like that the activities change regularly so he’s getting to try lots of new things every week, he has so much fun!
    I am so happy we made the decision to join the Monkey Puzzle family and we have recommended it to new parents already.

    My son has been at Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery for 3 years now, (he will be attending school a year early come September) but in these 3 years we have watched him grow up to be a well-rounded, happy, articulate little child.
    He loves the nursery, the staff are so welcoming and caring that we have had no issues or worries about his days at all.
    The environment at Monkey Puzzle is perfect for nurturing those early year developments.

    Our child loves attending Monkey Puzzle in Altrincham, she has always been very happy and settled there and looks forward to going. She has made a lot of her first friends at Monkey Puzzle and loves all the staff.

    Staff are friendly and genuinely care about the children – my son calls his key worker his best friend. I am informed about daily activities with detailed updates and pictures. The environment is always safe and clean. I have never had any issues in the 3 years my son has been at Monkey Puzzle. The food is fantastic and is regularly reviewed and updated to make sure it’s as varied and nutritious as possible. I have such peace of mind when I drop off in the mornings.

    I can’t ask for more. My daughter always enjoys herself there and clearly has a good connection with her key worker and several other staff members.
    The app is updated regularly so I can always see how my child is doing, what she’s had for dinner every day etc.
    Her time there has also clearly helped her development as she often comes home with words, songs, actions etc that she has picked up.
    When the weather permits the staff often take the children to local parks.
    It’s my first child so I don’t have any experience to compare with but what I have experienced has far exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Monkey Puzzle to anybody who asked me.

    Monkey Puzzle Nursery is the best nursery in this area I would recommend it to anyone. My daughter learns many things and the nursery teachers are so hard work and kind.
    The management is so good and we are so happy with this nursery.
