From the moment we viewed chuckles, we knew this is where the girls were going. The staff were extremely informative, the environment was amazing, answered any and all of our questions and reassured us throughout the whole process.
We get daily updates regarding toileting, meals and direct contact to the room staff via their app. In the early days, this was so reassuring to know we could pop a message and see how they were getting on in their settling in sessions.
All staff we have encountered have been fabulous. They're friendly, approachable and genuinely show they care.
I would like to know the trick to eating and nap times, because wow they have the nack!
For any parent who have children with suspected ALN, please know the management will be with you every step of the way, and are so supportive.
To all the staff, thank you will never be enough!xx
We're so overly grateful for being able to put our daughter into Chuckles. We are first time parents and we're so nervous about this new start. Our daughter has thrived being in chuckles and the staff are absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have been any happier with our choice. We're sad that she is moving on to school in Sept and leaving these guys behind.
I've never had any worries or concerns when leaving my daughter in their care, and she is always so happy and excited to go in each day.
Chuckles Nursery will always have my highest recommendation!
We couldn't have chosen a better place than Chuckles Nursery for our daughter.
She has been attending since she was 9 months old and is about to leave for reception at 4 years old, which feels like such a huge and emotional milestone for us. From the very beginning, she has absolutely loved going. She adores all of her "Aunties" and always comes home happy and clearly has so much fun.
We had concerns about her speech and spoke to nursery about this. They were incredibly supportive and arranged one to one support for her. The progress she has made has been amazing and I'm so grateful.
We will be so sad to say goodbye. She is more than ready for big school, but I don't think I am ready for her to leave just yet! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chuckles to anyone.
Thank you so much for everything you've done for our little girl! We are going to miss you all xx
My son has attended Chuckles since he was 11 months old and it's a shame he has to leave to go to school as he will miss it so much. All the staff there are amazing with both the children and parents, we have never had any issues. The outside space really sold this nursery when viewing, the kids are outside whenever possible and it's such a lovely area for them to play. My son has progressed amazingly throughout the years and I give all credit to the nursery workers. Thank you so much everyone at Chuckles x
I'm very satisfied with everything the staff has done for my daughter. They are kind, attentive, and truly dedicated to the children's well-being and development. I always felt that my daughter was in a safe and nurturing environment, and I've seen great progress in her confidence and skills. Thank you for your care, patience, and professionalism-I highly recommend this kindergarten!
From the very beginning, the staff have been welcoming, professional and incredibly caring. They create a safe, nurturing and positive environment where children feel comfortable and supported. It is clear how much dedication and effort the team puts into their work every day.
My son is always happy to go to nursery, which gives us great reassurance as parents. We truly appreciate the care, attention and kindness shown to both the children and families.
I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, reliable and supportive setting for their child.
All the staff are lovely and helpful.
I get daily updates on the app and frequently get observations to read with pictures, it's really nice as a parent to be kept in the loop on my child's progress!
We sign at home and since being at Chuckles, my little girl has come on so much and knows so many more signs and words, her speech is amazing!
She eats all her food( some of which she refuses at home) she does lots of crafts and different activities!
Overall I'm very pleased we chose Chuckles and would recommend to everyone looking for a nursery
My baby started at chuckles when he was 12 months and i has loved it ever sicnce. The staff are so attentive and very caring. They are always doing different activities and he has learned so much. They always update the app with what hes been upto, pics, what hes eaten etc. Communication is excellent. I cant thank the staff enough for everything they do!
They have a wide variety of toys to play with and you'd be stuck finding a nursery with better outdoor space. They go outside every day for fresh air which was so important to me.
When I've had concerns about how to get more water or feeding my son the staff have been able to provide guidance for this.
We use their flexible hours - paying for 9 hours instead of the standard 5hr morning/ afternoon or 10hr day.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone - it's great!
As soon as we stepped inside the nursery we knew it was perfect!
Our Son also had some settling in sessions prior to his start date and he settled in from day one, there were no tears!
Chuckles has made our sons first month so smooth and fun, he is always so excited to go in and comes out smiling every time!
The aunties at Chuckles give daily updates and photos via a secure app which has made the transition of us returning to work so much more comforting seeing that he's having a great day!
They're so supporting of all transitions thus far from walking, changing from formula ro cows milk and helping our son with eating with cutlery.
We are so excited for our sons journey with Chuckles, we know we have definitely chosen the right nursery. We can see how they have come so many awards!
Chuckles regularly invite parents to the nursery for sports and activity days and cookery so we get to see and experience some of their days with them.
My daughter has developed so well during her time at the nursery and made so many friends.
From the greetings at the door, the activities that very much organisation and thought goes in to down to the cooks that prepare delicious home cooked meals/snacks for the children. Everything is amazing!!
Thank you all so much for this wonderful journey and part you've played in my child's time with you.
Fantastic nursery. The ladies who work here are professional, approachable and my 2 girls absolutely adore them. Feedback about skills developed are given regularly and any queries I've had have always been responded to in good time. I will forever be greatly for all the great work the ladies do in helping me raise my little ones to be the best versions of themselves.
My son will be leaving here soon to start school, he started here at just 5 months old and all the staff from the baby group right through to preschool have been excellent. He has enjoyed each and every day here, can't believe our nursery journey is nearly over we really can't recommend chuckles enough.
The best nursery.
All who work at Chuckles have been fantastic with our son, he looks forward to going in and has made some fantastic friends during his time there.
The nursery have supported my son's development, from supporting with toilet training in the early days to learning his numbers and alphabet in the pre school, I feel he has had the best start before big school in September.
Chuckles nursery is such a Lovely nursery, the staff are friendly and so caring towards the children and my little girl is always so happy to be in. I couldn't recommend them enough. Knowing your child is in a safe and fun environment is so reassuring and I feel this way every time she's in nursery. She has come on so much since going to nursery and I really believe it is because of the nursery it's self they give her such good support as well as letting her learn independently. I wouldn't send her anywhere else.
Chuckles is without a doubt the best place for my daughter. She really loves every minute there. She does so much every time she is there. They have built such a lovely rapport with my daughter. I feel at complete ease knowing how well she is cared for and because of the trust I have in the team. I couldn't ask for anything better. I am very grateful to each and every member of staff who works there and especially those in my daughters team, Plant Bach.
It has felt like home from home.
They have all been like big sisters. I was so nervous about using childcare but made the best decision choosing chuckles. Always at the end of the phone if needed.
They have been a crucial part of my son's childhood and he has developed so well which is also partly thanks to them.
Absolutely fantastic nursery! I feel very lucky that my two children got to experience many years of chuckles. Nothing is too much effort for staff and they go above and beyond to keep the children safe, happy, and always entertained. The experiences they give the children are great including woodwork, growing fruit & veg, Welsh sessions, cooking, sports sessions, and so on. They are always ensuring children are learning new skills in a fun way. They are great at including parents and host lots of stay-and-play sessions throughout the year. Overall the children are so lucky to have such caring Aunties looking after them.
