Review from Claire W (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Fantastic nursery, they communicate throughout the day so I know that my children are safe and they feedback each pickup.
The meals they provide are amazing and they always make sure that my CMPA child has a suitable alternative.
The staff are amazing, warm and friendly.

Were so happy that we chose Dunkys Warrington!

What a wonderful place to start your child's education, from the moment they walk it it's a sensory heaven. My grandson loves the rabbits and he's coming on leaps and bounds, the staff are so friendly and approachable and I will be sure to recommend them to anyone needing childcare .

Review from N C (Mother of Child) published on 1 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can't say anything bad about this nursery. I took my baby to a show around having no expectations of starting him straight away as I’m a very anxious parent. He started the following week and I just love everything about it. The rooms are laid lovely, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. I would 1000% recommend this nursery. I worked at multiple nurseries myself but this nursery definitely stands out.

Overall Experience

The staff were very welcoming, they made the whole admission process very easy. My Child's meal was put into consideration, especially for the fact that he is picky with his meals. I look forward to a very fruitful academic year. Cheers Dunky's Day Nursery Warrington WA5

I am very happy with the nursery! The staff offer a friendly, caring approach to looking after my son! The daily activities are helping my son to socialise, and having lots of play time. I am happy that I have chosen this place as I feel my son is in safe hands.

My child has settled in so well here since joining at 8 months old, he has made amazing bonds with all of the staff and is always so happy to arrive in the morning. The staff are all a credit to the nursery and you can tell they really care about the children.

Review from Kailey B (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Cannot think of a better nursery in Warrington, kind, caring and committed to the best quality care for our little ones! When my son started at Dunkys the staff were amazing with him and after only four months of being at the nursery, we had enough evidence to diagnose my son! I would like to say thank you to my child's key worker, she is absolutely amazing with my son and has an amazing understanding of his sensory needs and his behaviour. Also to the deputy manager for coming to Team Around the Family meetings and well as hosting them in the nursery. The manager also sat down with me and spoke me through forms to help with my son. She has been amazing. Myself and my son are going to be so so sad when he leaves this year. My only judgement is I didn't start him at Dunkys sooner!

Reply from Tracy Towns, Nursery Manager at Dunkys Day Nursery (Warrington)

Thank you so much, Kailey, for your review; it was a pleasure looking after him.

Overall Experience

Nothing is too much trouble for the ladies here. We did a few extra settling-in sessions as my little boy wasn't overly keen on leaving me at first. Now he's happy when we pull up outside. They've been so good with us!

Review from Clodagh D (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My ten-month-old has been attending for the last month and she has settled in so well. She suffered quite badly with separation anxiety before starting but all the staff have been so attentive to her and she's now so happy when she arrives in the morning and has really taken well to her key workers.

Being able to receive the updates on the app throughout the day is amazing as it means I can check in with how she's getting on through the day and on pick up I get a nice update of what she's been up to. So happy with the decision to put her into Dunkys!

Overall Experience

Exceptional nursery and staff. I have two daughters here and can’t imagine them anywhere else! My eldest was a completely different child, within a few months of starting here her language is brilliant and her understanding of the world has grown massively. One million per cent recommend this nursery!

Reply from Tracy Towns, Nursery Manager at Dunkys Day Nursery (Warrington)

Thank you Meisha for your review it is a pleasure to look after both of your girls.

Overall Experience
I have had my two children in Dunkys. My oldest one has just started school and all the staff in Dunkys did a marvellous job getting him ready for it. He settled in school very well and he is outstanding in phonics, maths and any other areas. Thank you so much Dunkys staff.
I'm so glad my baby is going there now, he loves it as well and all the staff are looking after him really well and his development.

Really good nursery overall to put your children in. Management will also help you with anything you need.

Review from Peter G (Father of Child) published on 22 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to this nursery since 10 months old. We struggled at first but since she turned three, it's much easier. She likes the staff and we like them too as they are friendly and supportive. I will be very sad when she leaves for school. They arrange a lot of things to do every month so all of our children are entertained and occupied.

Overall Experience
Both my boys have attended Dunkys Day Nursery - one is now in his first year at primary school and progressing very well thanks to the great platform the nursery gave him.
My youngest still attends Dunkys and loves going to nursery.
The nursery offers great facilities and the staff go above and beyond their duties by volunteering some great events for families and supporting charities.

I have been going to work knowing my boys are in good and safe hands.

Review from Sarah W (Mother of Child) published on 20 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has spent just a short time at Dunkys Warrington and settled in immediately. The second day he walked straight in and hardly looked back which is wonderful to see for a parent. It showed me he felt comfortable and welcome by the staff. When we talk about the school he says he wants to go and that he has lots of fun with both his friends and the staff. I love seeing the updates on the app and the Christmas Fayre was a fantastic day of fun and activities as a little reward for the children. Everyone works really hard to ensure the nursery is the best it can be. A big thank you to all for making the nursery a safe and warm environment for my little boy.
