Review from Alzin P (Father of Child) published on 3 March 2026 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are very happy with our experience at Teddies Nursery. We have seen clear improvements in our toddler's learning, particularly in language and communication, and he is much more confident expressing himself. The staff are caring, attentive and friendly and the environment is warm and well organised.
Frequent opportunities offered to parents to be involved in the children's activities too. The app for communication is very convenient.
I feel like a couple of times, over the course of a year, we were called to bring in extra accessories for our child, though they were already present in his bag. This could have been avoided.
Bottomline - would recommend Teddies
Reply from Lyndsey Cahill, Manager at Teddies NurseryThank you for your lovely review, we feel having our families involved as much as we can is a great for us to work together to provide the best learning opportunities for our children

Teddies has been very welcoming and everyone has taken great care of my son. He initially took some time to settle but now he genuinely looks forward to going in the mornings. He remembers the names of his key workers and loves to shower them with hugs and kisses. I love that he is also spoken to in
Urdu at times as it is very important to me that he grows up bilingual. Finally, he has learned lots of new skills including using cutlery

We couldn't be happier with Teddies nursery. From the very beginning, the staff have been so warm, welcoming, and supportive, which made settling in such a smooth and positive experience for our 2-year-old. It's clear how much they genuinely care about the children.


The activities are always fun,

creative, and focused on learning through play. We've seen such a big improvement in our child's confidence, relationships with others, and especially their vocabulary and interactions. It's amazing to see how much they've grown and the milestones they're achieving.


The app is also fantastic. It keeps us informed about day-to-day routines, activities, and our child's progress, which gives us real peace of mind while they're at nursery.


We're so grateful to the wonderful team at Teddies for creating such a safe, happy, and nurturing environment. We would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Reply from Lyndsey Cahill, Manager at Teddies NurseryThank you so much for your kind words, we are so glad as a team to hear that you have had such a positive welcoming to our setting and that your child continues to thrive

Our 16-month-old son has been at Teddies since September, and we're so happy with it! Staff are super friendly, and he's safe and clearly happy. He's made loads of progress - more confident, getting independent, and even took his first steps soon after starting! They offer a great variety of meals
and textures, which has really helped him explore food. Would totally recommend.

We've been with Teddies since June 2025 and we've had no regrets. The staff in our child's room are amazing and caring.
We're happy with the feedback at each pickup and developmental progress on the app.
Thank you ladies for all the wonderful work you do.
We've had a great time here with no worries.
There
was just one incidence of improper documentation on the app but that's been sorted.

My baby has been attending this nursery for some time now, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the care he receives. The staff are incredibly caring, nurturing, and attentive, and they create such a safe and welcoming environment for the children. The atmosphere is always warm and positive, and
it's clear how much love and effort goes into everything they do. Leaving your baby in someone else's care can be daunting, but this nursery has always given me complete peace of mind. I'm so grateful to the amazing team for everything they do.

This nursery is great! My son loves coming each day and has formed wonderful relationships with both the staff and his peers. The staff are dedicated, taking the time to get to know him, his likes, and dislikes, even if they aren't based in his room. They go above and beyond to ensure his needs are
met and his learning is progressing. The manager is fantastic, always visible and approachable, and ensures that both parents and children feel valued. The nursery celebrates cultural events, making sure all children are involved, and they host regular "stay and play" sessions, inviting parents and grandparents to join. It's a warm, inclusive, and nurturing environment where my son is thriving, and I couldn't be more grateful!

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Teddies Nursery Oldham. The staff are incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely care about the children's well-being and development. My children have settled in great and it's clear they feel safe and happy there.


The activities are well thought out, encouraging

learning through play while also promoting social skills. I've noticed a big improvement in my children's confidence and communication since starting. The staff keep me well-informed with regular updates, which gives me great peace of mind.


The nursery itself is clean, well-organized, and filled with engaging toys and resources. Outdoor play is also a big part of their routine, which I really appreciate.


I highly recommend Teddies Nursery Oldham to any parent looking for a nurturing, supportive environment for their child.

I do think they need to make the outside space much bigger so the children have more space but still a fabulous nursery.

My son has been at teddies since he was 9 months old and he is due to start school this year.
So he has been in all the rooms and stages and been supported by pretty much all the staff members.
He is always happy and well cared for. The ladies work hard to teach him new things in a fun way.
He always
eats well.
Everyone is always kind and friendly and I can see they genuinely care about him.
I will be really sad when he has to leave for school this year as the 4 years he has been here have been great!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.886)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.886) out of 10 for Teddies Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.886 for Teddies Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (409 Excellents x 5) + (40 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 455 Ratings = 4.886
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Teddies Nursery is based on 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 38 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
