Don’t know where to start!! Michelle and her staff truly are the best!! They go above and beyond for the children. My daughter really loved her time at in toddler room then moved on to pre school now has graduated ready for her next chapter. My daughter is school ready thanks to Michelle and her team. We are going to miss everyone at Didsbury childminding. We will certainly keep in touch! Thankyou for everything!!

Michelle and her team are brilliant. The team are very attentive and caring, and you can tell they put their all into taking care of the kids.

Sending my children here has had a positive impact on their social skills, confidence and eating habits (previously fussy eaters). Both my children love it here and have a great relationship with the staff.

Another thing we love is how much time the children get to spend outdoors in nature - whether it's at the local park or the forest school. They get fresh air everyday.

It's a great environment and we will miss it when our children leave.

A fantastic nursery, led by an amazing manager. From the baby room through to pre-school they provide a creative, nurturing, and trustworthy environment in which children are encouraged to be themselves. We were drawn to the “childminders” rather than “nursery” feel - the children spend time out and about (scout hut, library, local parks, and all sorts of excursions) and we have loved the ways that this helps the kids grow both their confidence and their sense of community (and direction!). Staff are wonderful, there are regular activities (yoga, Spanish, football, forest school have been regular highlights) but also plenty of time for free play and child-led exploration. The curiosity approach has been great, and communication with the staff is always good. We are full of gratitude - and the highest recommendations - for Michelle and her team.

I wish I could give more stars. DCM isn’t just a nursery, it has been like family for us with my little boy and continues to be for our daughter. They go above and beyond to keep the children entertained, forest school, trips out, yoga, football - I wish I attended! The staff turnover is super low so most of the teachers looking after my son are now with my daughter so we feel like we’ve known them years. They provide a level of wrap around care for school that I can only equate to having a grandparent around to help. I’m so glad my little girl is still there as we’re not ready to say goodbye yet!

Michelle & her Team at Didsbury Childminding have shown so much love & care to our boys over the past 8 years. Both our boys attended from when they were 9 months old till they started school. I've loved hearing about the activities my sons have experienced (and that you may not necessarily get at your usual nursery), such as trips to the park, library, museums, The Lowry, Printworks etc. The Team at Didsbury Childminding are extremely hard working, supportive, dedicated & encouraging. Thank you Team DCM for being such an amazing nursery and "home from home" for our boys! We will miss you!

We can’t recommend DCM enough. They look after the children like they’re their own family. The staff are incredible, so caring, polite, friendly and so highly engaged in the development of the children. Michelle the manager goes above and beyond all the time to make sure both kids and parents are happy. Management keep parents well informed about the children’s welfare, behaviour, progress and development and are so genuinely invested in their care. The kids go on regular trips and outings, have so many activities to keep them busy, and always come home happy, well fed and clean (despite maybe some rogue paint or glitter haha!). We couldn’t be happier with our children being looked after by DCM. From babies right through to pre-school, the care and effort put in by everyone on site is on another level. Even when we’ve had difficult times as a family, we’ve been fully supported with additional care given to the children to make sure they’re always as happy and as settled as possible. Thank you DCM. You really are exceptional!

I am thankful I found this special place to my little girl. It's like my daughter's second home, where she felt safe and loved!
I definitely recommend DCM!
Now we are ready for the new chapter at Reception!
Thank you so much to everyone at DCM, Leah will miss you all!

My daughter attends Didsbury childminding and the care has been phenomenal. The staff are so kind and friendly, they really made my daughter feel welcomed and loved. Her speech and reading has flourished while under the care of Michelle and all her team. The team really go above and beyond to provide extraordinary care for all the children in the setting. I would highly recommend them if you are looking for childcare.
