ALL our staff are trained and are kept up to date in Paediatric First Aid.

For the 36 years that Elm Cottage has been caring for children we have always believed that every member of our team should be trained in and kept up to date in paediatric first aid, this is something we have felt very strongly about and has been implemented since first opening in 1989.

We now work with Millie’s Trust regularly and are proud to also provide support for our parents/carers with evening paediatric first aid workshops across our nursery settings.

Elm Cottage

Established in 1989, Elm Cottage has proudly supported families with trusted, high-quality childcare for children aged 3 months to 11 years. We operate Ofsted-rated nurseries and out-of-school clubs across the Stockport area.

Our Hursthead of School Club and Holiday Club first opened in 2005 and continues to offer a welcoming, active, and supportive environment for children. Located within the school grounds, we have our own building, and access to the , outdoor playground, and spacious playing fields and Forest area — giving children plenty of room to play, explore, and thrive.

 

Paediatric First Aid

At Elm Cottage, we believe every child deserves to be cared for by fully trained staff. That’s why every member of our team is trained and regularly updated in Paediatric First Aid — a standard we’ve upheld since we first opened in 1989.

We’re proud to partner with Millie’s Trust to keep our training current and comprehensive. We also extend this support to families by offering evening Paediatric First Aid workshops for parents and carers across our nursery settings.

Ofsted

We are proud to share that in our latest Ofsted inspection (2025), we were awarded a MET – the highest possible grade for out-of-school club providers. This reflects our commitment to quality, safety, and providing the best experience for every child.
