The key carers in the room are so caring and show great dedication to my niece and nephews needs. They are in separate rooms, and yet all staff are aware of the children’s needs and stage of development. When dropping them off at nursery, they run-in with a huge smile on their faces, they are always
welcomed with warmth from all staff, and all staff are approachable at all times. When collecting them from the nursery, the feedback is always in detail, and the children look like they have had a great day and this also shows when they get in the car and they talk about all the things they have been learning.

Excellent care provided and individual attention paid to all children. I have recommended this nursery to friends who now attend.
The staff are friendly and helpful. I think it’s a family orientated nursery as all the staff know every child’s name.
Reply from Jennie Mansell, Manager at Tiddlywinks Nursery BuryAw, thank you for your lovely comments Jenny, its great to get new children from recommendations from our parents.

Fabulous nursery. My daughter has been coming here since she was only 12 weeks old. The staff are so caring and nurturing, we have found this nursery to be exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it. The Parent Zone App is amazing and allows you to see what your child is doing throughout
the day; also what they are eating, drinking, nappy changes and sleep. We really missed it during Lockdown but are delighted to be back.

I instantly fell in love with Tiddlywinks after viewing it in January 2020 for my 2-year-old daughter.
After viewing other nurseries, non compared, and we are so pleased our daughter loves it just as much.
She is always happy and enjoys her days there telling us on pick up 'I had lots of fun at nursery
today', which warms my heart!
It is always so clean, and the facilities they have for the children are second to none.

I think Tiddlywinks Day Nursery is excellent, my daughter who is nearly 3 years old, they have kept me up to date with my daughter's progress of how well she's doing and keeping me up to date with everything on Parent zone. I would definitely recommend Tiddlywinks Day Nursery to other parents.

Tiddlywinks (Bury) is a great nursery. It’s neat, clean and well maintained. Rooms are spacious, ventilation good and has a good indoor and outdoor play area. Staff are welcoming and warm. I really like their app - “Parent Zone” in which one can look at their child’s photo, video and gather information
about their stages of development. Along with this, one can regularly know what they have eaten, what they have been playing and updates on nappy changes and sleep timings. It’s quite comforting. I’m a happy Mum and would recommend it to everyone.

Excellent nursery the staff are lovely, my son is so comfortable around them. I’m never worried about leaving him as I know he is so well looked after. He was poorly last week and they kindly went out of their way to send a get well soon card out and to say they missed him which myself and my partner
found so touching. It also put a massive smile on his face. On his return to nursery, he was so pleased to see them all. He has come on so much since he has joined Tiddlywinks.

My son was very unsettled at first but he has come a long way since starting. The staff are very helpful and smiley. The manager is very involved, she knows how he has been during the day and helps where she can. My son has already come a long way and it has only been a month. The staff try and keep
you up to date with photos during the day, which is always lovely to see. Would definitely recommend!
Reply from Jennie Mansell, Deputy Manager at Tiddlywinks Nursery BuryAw many thanks Sob for the lovely comments, they mean the world to us and your son is settling really well.

With having a poor experience with a previous nursery and being concerned with my child's well being, we moved to Tiddlywinks. It was the best decision we made. Our daughter's development has come up leaps and bounds and she loves it. Very happy.

My son started the nursery in September 2018, I was so impressed with the friendly staff and the facilities in the building. My son took to his key worker straight away and was so welcoming. My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting, I'm so happy with the progressions he's making here. Excellent
nursery.

Absolutely fabulous, I would strongly recommend this nursery. My son had a bad experience at his last nursery but has really settled. Tiddlywinks are excellent in meeting the needs of all children. My little boy gets really excited to see his key worker and talks about what they have been doing at nursery.
Staff have worked their socks off with toilet training my son, and he has become a lot more confident with this.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Tiddlywinks Bury are absolutely amazing. Initially, putting my son into nursery terrified me as he was extremely clingy with me, after viewing the nursery I was so happy with how clean and organised the nursery area was but also how staff there put me at ease. They were friendly, professional and they
were helpful in answering every question and concern I had. Whilst my son has been attending Tiddlywinks he has become independent and has developed faster than I thought he would - he turns up to nursery so excited and happy. Every time he attends I am regularly updated regarding what my son has eaten, when his nappy has been changed and his development progress. I enjoy seeing regular pictures via the app. The staff are amazing with my son especially the team leader who my son has a special bond with. I highly recommend this nursery and brag about it to all my family and friends!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.890)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.890) out of 10 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Bury is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 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 4.952 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Bury is calculated as follows: ( (242 Excellents x 5) + (8 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.952
  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 4.938 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tiddlywinks Nursery Bury is based on 21 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 112 number of registered child places is 22.4. 21 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.4 = 0.938
  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.
