DS will be starting in September as i have to go back to work. He will have just turned 1. I am dreading it and wondered if anyone knew of a good place in Preston?

its ashleigh on marsh lane in longton
it is soooooooooooooooooo fab i cant recommend it highly enough. the staff are all older and i'v had kids there for 4 yrs now and the staff have hardly changed at all. which is good.
they dont take under 1s though. they do grat stuff,...last few weeks they have been watching chicks hatch from eggs..
its lovely. go and look.

Hi Jody

There is a Busy Bees one on the site of RPH which a couple of colleague's (I work in Preston ) children go there and I have heard good reports. They definitely take babies there.

longton · 01/04/2008 20:11

oh you are all coming out of the woodwork now
where are you all? do you meet up at all? waves shyly (blush)

Lulumama · 01/04/2008 20:12

we had a meet up last year,and i tried to arrange another one, but only 2 people could definitely come, so did not do it in the end

longton · 01/04/2008 20:14

Lulumama · 01/04/2008 20:15

DS loves splashworld, we love botanic gardens ! will let you know when there is a meet up. i have met up with Wotz in botanic gardens a coupel of times now, and taken the DCs on the train and round the mini golf

ceebee74 · 01/04/2008 20:51

I'm always up for a meet-up - although I am quite upset that Lulumama didn't mention that she had met me (twice) - obviously an enjoyable experience then

Go and look round the nursery at the hospital and see what you think

Unfitmother · 01/04/2008 20:51

Just found out she's gone back to her job as she didn't get any children

try this

LissyDuffy · 01/04/2008 20:51

Mine is at small wonders near the uni. They have been lovely, if a bit over cautious about informing me every time she falls over (shes one, falling over is what she does!)

longton · 01/04/2008 20:51
