Tiddlywinks has provided both my children with a safe/fun place to learn and connect with other children - the staff are amazing. They are caring and warm with the children. Best nursery in Manchester.
Tiddlywinks have been amazing with my child; they have helped him so much with his learning.
This is my first experince of using a nursery, and I am blown away. I cannot fault one thing. The staff are caring and sincere, and I know that my daughter is in the best hands.
My son loves coming to nursery every day. The staff are all very welcoming, loving and kind. They go above and beyond to give the very best care and education. Their partnerships with parents are excellent; they keep me regularly updated on daily matters as well as my son's learning and development. My son has developed amazingly since attending this nursery, his speech and language have improved profoundly. The management is excellent and is always involved with the children too. This is a fantastic nursery and I'm so glad my son attends here.
My son recently started at Tiddlywinks and has improved with his speech and social skills a lot. The staff are lovely and very approachable.
My son started nursery this September, initially it was very tough crying here and there but with the support of the amazing teachers at the centre, my son has settled very well in the school. Thank you teacher for your wonderful help and amazing support. Every member of staff makes sure every child is safe and well-taken care of. With their warm reception, every parent is assured their child is in good hands.
I am very happy with Tiddlywinks nursery, Higher Blackley. My daughter has settled well with the support of all the staff. She has learnt to make new friendships and communicate.
Great experience at this nursery. Our baby loves it and has developed leaps and bounds. She has had a good structure to her days and has been able to learn songs, dance, read and learn colours, etc. As parents, we have been offered support in sleep training. Overall, we are happy with our baby's development and progress. The parents' app has been great.
The nursery has been very helpful and supportive with my son. I am glad I brought him here. they have been very understanding, my son is starting to improve a lot with all his skills, most especially communication. The support of the nursery combined with mine has done a lot for him. Thank you all for your support, and thank you for your understanding.
Very good nursery to send your child to. Every member of staff makes sure your child is safe and very good for children to learn as well. Everyone is just really outgoing, and really nice.
My child is happy.
No concerns.
My eleven-month-old son has been going to Tiddlywinks for two months and he has settled in very well. He now goes in three full days a week from half days. I can see he really enjoys it. He wants to go and play and the other children shout out his name to play with them when they see him. He is well looked after by the staff and his friends. He has become more confident, trying to talk and walk, thanks to the staff. They treat the children like their very own. It's a very loving and caring environment.
Friendly, helpful staff. My daughter likes nursery a lot.
Amazing nursery! My daughter loves it here, the staff are lovely and provide an excellent level of care and teaching. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since being here.
My daughter came to Tiddlywinks back in 2011 and had the best time so there was no doubt where I wanted to send my son. He loves it here and we feel very happy with everything.
Tiddlywinks is an amazing nursery for both my son and daughter. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Really nice atmosphere for the children.
Extremely happy with the care my child receives. He loves coming to the nursery and has formed close bonds with the staff here. Everything is organised and clean and I love seeing the observations and experiences he has each day on the parents' app.
