I am absolutely delighted with Tiddlywinks. My 11-month-old settled in quickly thanks to the warm, caring staff who make us feel instantly at ease. They are incredibly attentive, patient and genuinely love what they do. It shows in every interaction. The nursery environment is clean, safe and filled
with engaging age age-appropriate activities that support early development. My baby has become more confident, curious and happy since joining. I really appreciate the regular updates and photos throughout the day; it's so reassuring to see our little one thriving. The communication is excellent and the staff are always open, friendly and responsive.

Thank you to all the staff at Tiddlywinks, you have been amazing, last year my son attended this nursery and now I have my niece who attends there.

Brilliant nursery! The staff are very kind and keep you updated about your child through the app and on collection. The nursery is well planned out, bright and colourful on the inside, and has a nice play area outside, too. The staff plan fun activities for the children every day, to help with development.
Overall, it's a great nursery!

My child has had a very positive experience at nursery. I have seen significant improvement in his speech and social skills since starting. He has made strong relationships with his key workers, and all staff have always been very friendly and welcoming. No concerns at all and would definitely recommend
it.

This nursery's teaching and caring standards are the best in the community. Their arms of support for the children do not only work during the nursery terms but go the extra mile to update parents on what and how to keep the children safe, entertained, and educated.
Staff are exceptionally good at
what they do for the children on daily attendance.

My daughter has just started nursery and I could not ask for a better place to send her. My little girl has the best key person who really cares for her and has really helped my baby girl. She has already come on so much and I can already see her confidence grow.

My daughter's learning has improved so much and we hope that if this continues to progress in nursery she will be confident and well prepared for primary school in September 2024. The facility is always clean and presentable for the children daily.

I love the friendly and polite environment first of all in each and every member of staff. I feel a positive attitude everywhere which is the first need of every child. If the teacher's attitude is positive then they will teach positive things to the child whatever they are teaching.

always have a warm welcome for the children's parents. Very well equipped and always take care of the health and safety issues. I am very happy with it.

I am overly impressed with my son's development even though he started 2 months ago. I receive regular updates from the staff with pictures of the daily activities unlike the previous nursery, which was not very good at. The staff have been amazing with my son and created a rapport with him which helps
him engage further.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.874)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.874) out of 10 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Crumpsall 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.874 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Crumpsall is calculated as follows: ( (188 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.874
  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 Tiddlywinks Nursery Crumpsall is based on 18 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 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4, which has been reached with 18 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.
