Friendly and welcoming environment for our daughter who attends this nursery. She is always happy to attend and very happy with her key carer. Would be happy to recommend this nursery to others in the area.

Review from D D (Mother of Child) published on 18 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child has thrived since joining Tiddlywinks's last year. Her transition between rooms has been a positive experience and she has grown in confidence. I have a great relationship with the staff and if we need to discuss anything they are always on hand. I know my daughter's safety, welfare and general early years education are in brilliant hands.

I have recommended this nursery to local mums and would continue to do so. My child has developed fantastic relationships with her key workers and we work collaboratively to make sure my daughter is achieving her full potential. She loves her time in nursery and I'm so happy.

My daughter loves going to nursery. She has been at Tiddlywinks for over two years. The staff are very competent and friendly. They clearly care for the children and enjoy spending time with them all day. My daughter has recently been on a trip to China Town and loved it. We are expecting another child and will definitely be sending them here.

Amazing nursery with equally amazing staff. My daughter has been here for 3 years now and loves every single second of it. My daughter has bonded so well with the staff over the years and has made so many friends. Tiddlywinks has helped to bring her on and I'm so grateful.

Cannot recommend this nursery enough. My daughter has attended since she was 2 years old and has come on leaps and bounds while here. She is now 4 and loves coming to nursery! The staff are excellent and care so much about the children! I will be sad when she has to leave for big school but I know because of tiddlywinks she will be ready to go!

Review from N Q (Mother of Child) published on 7 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Prior to sending our son here we visited several nurseries in the area, it wasn't until our Tiddlywinks visit that we knew we had found the right one. Our child has been attending since he was 13 months old, he is so settled and happy so much so it's hard getting him to leave at the end of the day. He has also made some really close friends and we love him being there. The staff are lovely and really personable to the point that staff who don't even care for my son will say hi and call him by his first name. Finding the right nursery is so important, I would definitely recommend Tiddlywinks. It would be even better if the outside area was bigger, especially for foundation/pre-school, however I don't feel like it inhibits my child in any way, they just have lots of energy to burn!

Review from Olivia W (Mother of Child) published on 14 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

What a fantastic nursery! My son has only been attending for 6 weeks or so and I can already see him developing and thriving. The staff are so supportive, with their 'settling in' period tailored to what your child needs. My son has built a good rapport with his main carer, which is very reassuring as a first-time mum. The curriculum set by management goes beyond requirements so I know it is the best place for any child to flourish and succeed would 100% recommend.

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend this nursery enough, it is absolutely amazing! All members of staff are so welcoming and caring and I feel so comfortable leaving my daughter in there care. Since my daughter has attended this nursery her development and learning has improved so much and she really enjoys going. Nothing is ever to much for the staff and they always do a very good handover and communicate everything to you. It has such a warm feeling and atmosphere in this nursery and I know my daughter is in the best hands. The staff are happy to help and support you with anything you need and the manager is always around and happy to help! Highly recommend, such a safe place for children xx

Review from Samantha Y (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional care and support my child receives at Tiddlywinks nursery Bury. From the moment we walked through the doors, the staff have been warm, welcoming, and truly dedicated to creating a nurturing environment.
The team go above and beyond to ensure each child feels valued, safe, and engaged. Their attention to individual needs, combined with a well-structured routine, has had a hugely positive impact on my child's confidence and development. The activities are both educational and fun, fostering creativity, curiosity, and social skills.
Communication with parents is excellent, with regular updates on progress, activities, and special moments. It's reassuring to know my child is in such capable and caring hands. This collaborative approach ensures that my child receives consistent support.

I highly recommend Tiddlywinks Nursery to any parent looking for outstanding childcare. The dedication and passion of the staff make it a truly special place.

Overall Experience
I would strongly recommend Tiddlywinks Nursery to anybody. Both of my children have attended the nursery ( one still currently attends) and I wouldn't send them anywhere else- it is absolutely brilliant.

My son is always so happy to go into nursery and the girls in the baby room always greet him with a warm welcome and big smiles on their faces.

Review from Oliver L (Father of Child) published on 4 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter's nursery has exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we enrolled her, we knew we had made the right choice. The environment is fantastic, with vibrant, colourful spaces that inspire both creativity and learning. The nursery is a place where our daughter feels happy, safe, and excited to attend every day.
The staff are exceptional, always going above and beyond to care for the children. They are incredibly attentive and nurturing, ensuring that each child's needs are met with warmth and kindness. It's clear that they genuinely care about the children's development and well-being. Our daughter has flourished under their guidance, and we've seen remarkable progress in her social and cognitive skills.
The management team is equally impressive, consistently offering clear communication and support for both the parents and staff.

It's more than just a childcare place, it's a warm, loving, and enriching environment where children truly thrive.

Tiddlywinks Nursery Bury has been amazing for my daughter, I can't recommend it enough. I've never had any issues with her starting over a year ago, starting in the baby room and the staff were so good with her and made the settling in period much easier. I love that it's such a clean and modern place where I know she is safe as all the doors are locked so no children can wander off. She's learnt so much being there and that's down to the wonderful staff!

Review from Leanne M (Mother of Child) published on 3 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
An absolutely lovely setting.
From day one, regular continuity and familiarity with all staff members, which I believe is key for development within early years.
My child has been here for over a year now, we relocated from another local outstanding setting, which wasn't living up to expectations due to constant staff changes and class sizes - I wish we'd been here from day one.
All the team genuinely care for the little ones and go the extra mile, the nursery is incredibly accommodating and friendly.
My little one has some lovey bonds with the team.
The personalised app to show the individual children's activities, food log - really anything necessary/useful/helpful, is fantastic. It allows you an insight into your child's day.
There is the option to take the children out on day trips now and then (ie parks/museums), equally you can opt out if you wish.

I genuinely don't have a negative thought - my child loves it here and I know all his friends do too. 100% would recommend.

Overall Experience

Such a wonderful nursery with welcoming staff from the moment you walk into the building until the moment you leave. The children appear happy and thriving with clear bonds and attachments for staff caring for them. My nephew runs into nursery with a big smile on his face and the handover when I pick him up is so detailed, even though they have an app for parents to refer to their child's day.
