Astbury Lane Nursery in Congleton is one of our family-run group of eight nurseries. Our team believe in relationships first and foremost and from the moment you arrive to visit until the day comes for you to leave your child in our care and every day after that, you will experience first hand the care, security, trust and warmth that is central to our culture and ethos.
The indoor space at nursery has been lovingly restored and redesigned to provide an exceptional early childhood environment that reflects just how young children play and learn and with spacious car parking, bright, airy rooms and a fantastic outdoor space for all ages, we can offer families a secure and stimulating setting where children can thrive.
We were delighted to be awarded OFSTED Outstanding at our first inspection in August 2018. We believe this reflects our ethos about children and our passion for early years.
You really do care for the children as if they are your own. Nothing is too much trouble. I love the activities that you do with the children. The facebook updates and the daily diaries used to communicate are great.
My first impressions were very positive. Everywhere was clean and smelled beautiful. Both the 0-2 and 2-4 rooms were very well decorated and resourced. Ellie loved exploring both rooms, and really enjoyed getting to know Emma.
Individual care and attention is given daily. Great activities, great food! Staff always notice children’s individual interest which is fantastic. Friendly and welcoming staff that have a wonderful rapport with the children.
Our team make nursery a wonderfully inviting and exciting place to be. Understanding this unique phase of your child’s early years means they are there to support you through each stage of parenting.

The nursery environment plays a vital part in children’s well-being. We believe that children should feel a sense of belonging at nursery and so everything about the rooms, resources and furniture we use is designed to encourage independence and foster childrens’ self confidence. In keeping with our overall philosophy and approach to early years teaching, the environment too is influenced by a range of early years approaches, including Steiner, Montessori, High Scope and Reggio.
One of the first things you will notice is that nursery looks inviting and enticing to not only children, but adults too! Provocations for learning and play are everywhere to be seen and child sized furniture and resources tell children that this is a space for them. Somewhere to play, imagine, create, experiment and be together.
