But now he’s really surprising us all with the amount of new words and sentences he’s saying daily!
The staff here are fantastic, very supportive, caring and just overall really lovely people.
My son really didn’t like going to his old nursery, he would cry every day on the way there, but not at Tiddlywinks; he bounces in every day with a smile and waves me goodbye.
The best nursery around!
It had been the best experience both for myself and my adorable one. I am so glad we signed my daughter up at this nursery. It helps my child to understand words and the world, making teaching and communication easier for my family.
I can't recommend this nursery enough. They have been absolutely fantastic with my son. He has attended the setting for over a year, after having a dreadful time at his previous nursery. He settled so well and I felt comfortable leaving him with the very capable staff from day one. The parent app keeps you updated and you can see photos of activities throughout the day. He is well-fed and all of his needs are more than met. He has so much fun and speaks fondly of his time at nursery. Children are stimulated with different activities, all of the other toddlers seem very happy there too. He talks about his friends and the staff when he comes home. They have lots of time outside as well, which my son loves. They have brilliant facilities and lots of different areas for the children to explore. The nursery is clean and smells nice, unlike some nurseries! It's very calming in the reception area, making children feel comfortable and relaxed.
My little boy loves coming to Tiddlywinks Day Nursery Ancoats, literally jumping at the door. They handled the transition to nursery really well and reassure you with updates on the app throughout the day. All staff are friendly and very competent. I would highly recommend.
Tiddlywinks Day Nursery Ancoats has a fantastic team. They are very helpful and provide a lot of information about the nursery so we can stay updated. My son has been going to nursery for four months now and he is loving it. He has become very active since he has begun going to the nursery. The manager is very sweet and is always happy to help. I am very thankful to one member of staff for taking such good care of my son. Overall, I am very satisfied with the service up to now.
The staff at Tiddlywinks Ancoats are doing an absolutely amazing job taking care of our little girl. They have managed to make the transition really smooth both for us and for her by giving the best care and attention every single day. We can't recommend this place enough, thank you for what you are doing for all the children.
I have had the opportunity to see all of what my child has done. They have taken the time to explain what she likes and how she is growing. It's been a very open conversation and the help the staff have given her and the bond she has with them is amazing. She loves coming here because of the care and interest all the staff have for each of the children.
My daughter has come along loads since starting nursery. A fantastic service.
Great staff, lovely nursery.
Excellent nursery with lovely keyminders.
Myself and my son have had an excellent experience whilst he has been at Tiddlywinks. Staff are very friendly and always listen to any concerns you have. My son has progressed extremely well whilst here. He eats well whilst here, always comes home happy, full of stories to tell.
My son adores coming to Tiddlywinks Day Nursery. He has great friendship groups and has fantastic relationships with all the workers at the nursery. He has developed so much since being at Tiddlywinks. It is a fantastic nursery.
Fantastic place with great staff, very friendly.
My son has a very good time in nursery. He just started a few weeks ago and has settled down very well. He loves his personal carer and other friendly staff.
Pleasant experience was offered a drink and asked to go to the baby room where it was quieter. Keyworker was knowledgeable about my childs development.
I am happy with my daughters development. I think she has achieved a lot with positive support from her teachers. She talks positively about her teachers. My daughters speech is really good. She handles a conversation and I am so proud of my little girl. I want to also thank the teachers for her potty training. I have spoken with her teacher with regards to her next steps for her development.
Highly recommend Tiddlywinks. My son has additional needs with a learning and development delay and also a speech delay. The ladies at Ancoats have helped him come along in all areas and helped him reach his goals. He really loves going and gets excited when we arrive at nursery, which is a relief for me and my partner as my son does find it difficult in new places and with new people. Thank you.
I really appreciate the meeting, I like everything they are doing for my child and the explanations. Thanks a lot.
Both my children have attended this nursery and I wouldn't trust any other nursery to take care of them to the same high standard. The staff are kind, caring and professional. The activities are varied and the food is great. My older child is now at school and she still talks about this nursery with fondness and loves visiting to collect her brother. I have every confidence in recommending this nursery - they are excellent.
We are very happy with my sons progress at nursery. He has come on leaps and bounds over these last few months.
