From the first walk around we went to, all the staff were really friendly and welcoming. They've made my daughter feel safe and encouraged her to come out of her shell. I'm extremely impressed with the nursery facilities and range of activities. they give me comfort by giving updates of her progress and goings on throughout the day. Amazing nursery, amazing staff.

My daughter has loved her time at Tiddlywinks Nursery Clayton. The staff are amazing. As a parent, you always feel safe and happy to leave your child in their care.

The staff are brilliant and treat my son like a king. The nursery always looks amazing at Halloween and Christmas time, as well as being clean and tidy. My son has progressed in so many areas in his learning and development and now loves coming to nursery. The menu is great and I am very happy bringing my son here. I would recommend it to everyone.

When my son first started here, he really struggled to settle in but the staff were really reassuring and within a few weeks, my son loved being here and has done since. He always has a smile on his face and I love the updates I get, whilst he's here. I could not recommend it enough.

My son absolutely loves Tiddlywinks and all of the facilities that they have to offer. He's always asking when he can next go in and has loads to tell me and his mum about his day. Splendid service with caring and helpful staff.
Thank you for taking the time to review the nursery. It is lovely to hear how happy you are with the care you receive. Kind Regards, Tracy.
Tiddlywinks Day Nursery are amazing! My son naturally thrives there and the facilities they have to offer are second to none and encourage learning to the maximum potential possible. The staff are incredibly kind and understanding and actively make time to discuss your child's day, progress and next steps with you personally face-to-face or via the app or telephone. Management are always on hand to provide support too. Most importantly my son is safe, happy, engaged and cared for to the highest degree. He loves his time at nursery and the wide range of activities they do day to day. I'm incredibly impressed with his nursery and Tiddlywinks, as well as all their staff, are definitely deserving of the outstanding rating!
Many thanks for your wonderful review of Tiddlywinks. It is so lovely to hear how you happy you all are with the care that we provide. Thank you for taking the time out to complete this review. Kind Regards, Tracy.
Very efficient and organised pickup. Phoned to let them know I was coming to pick up my child. Then he was coming to reception when I got there. All Covid rules in place. Couldn't fault them at all. Very precise handover about what had happened during the day. Always happy to go in the next day
Kind regards
Tracy
My daughter is 13 months old and has just started her gradual admission this week at the nursery, her key worker is amazing. My daughter is bonding with her already, very friendly and welcoming each day for drop-offs and pickups, she informs me on what they've been doing through the day, what she's had to eat and when she has slept. She is fabulous, as a working mum, it's hard to be leaving your child each day and missing out on things but her keyworker keeps me updated with lovely smiling photos throughout the day. Wouldn't want her anywhere else.
Thank you Natalie for your lovely comments. It is so heartwarming to know that parents are happy with the care that they receive. Kind regards, Tracy.
