Kids Allowed's new, purpose-built facility, developed by Peel Land and Property, is located within the retail, leisure and office space that also includes the Trafford Centre.
The 114-place nursery is the eighth nursery for Manchester-based Kids Allowed, a group which employs over 450 members of staff and provides places for around 2,000 children across its settings.
The new setting features a green roof system which enhances local air quality.
Solar photovoltaic panels have also been installed on the roof to provide the building with a supplement of clean, low carbon energy.
The building has achieved the highest Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) A rating as well as a BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) rating of ‘very good’, ranking the building in the top 25 per cent of new UK non-domestic buildings for environmental performance.
