80 years of childcare

It was as long ago as 1926 that Rosebank first was converted by a charity from a dwelling house into a holiday home for mothers and children from central Manchester.

Over the years it gave happy memories to many who arrived by train in what then was a place surrounded by fields.

 Rosebank has also been a Children's home until 1991 when it was converted into a nursery school for 3 and 4 year olds. Since then  the large grounds and house have had various extensions to provide more facilities and a wider range of services. When the 3 and 4 year olds were moved to our new Naturegarten nursery then it allowed us the opportunity to re-arrange the premises around the specific needs of babies and toddlers.

The light Garden Room is ideal for babies, whilst the our other smaller rooms provide a homey atmosphere for toddlers.

Our studio is great for circle time, dancing and flexing developing muscles.

Our extensive gardens are well used as well with sandpit and areas for creative play and exercise.
