This is an exceptional achievement for a childcare setting, as it shows they are going above and beyond minimum requirements, in terms of first aid training, to help keep children safe.

As a parent, placing your child in a setting that is endorsed with Millie’s Mark provides reassurance that all childcare practitioners know what to do in a paediatric first aid situation.

It further acknowledges that children’s safety is at the forefront of the provider’s mind when they care for your child.

Juice were proud to be one of only 3 settings across Trafford (and the ONLY one in South Trafford!) to achieve the highest, Platinum status, at the inaugural Giving Voice Awards, in recognition of our team’s dedication to ensuring the very best outcomes for the children in our care, in terms of their speech, language and communication development.

We have subsequently been invited to become a Mini Me Yoga hub, being recognised as a centre of excellence, where well being is key to all that we do.
