Great place for a child to progress their skills. My child goes twice a week and to my surprise, I can see improvements with her reading and talking. I'd highly recommend sending your child here!

Staff are absolutely lovely, my little girl has just started and they have made sure she is comfortable and settling in well, the manager is fantastic too. Nursery room is always clean and set up fantastically, with plenty of playing outside too.

Giggles is the first Nursery that my son has attended and while he loved it immediately, like any new parent I was nervous about sending him. However, the staff have all been fantastic!
The nursery itself is lovely and my boy loves to tell me about all the things he has done, and even if he doesn't
the app Giggles uses is amazing at keeping me updated.

Absolutely amazing nursery, my son loves going and even though some mornings he's not in the mood and cries. He always gets given a cuddle till he settles down and then goes off and plays till he's picked up. Couldn't have asked for a better nursery for my son and will highly recommend to other parents.

Lovely new nursery in an ideal location for me, the nursery has been great with communication and has kept me updated on things throughout the opening of the nursery, best starting date and settling sessions for my son, as well as answering all my questions promptly. My boy has only been here for a
little while but he always comes home excited which makes me happy as he seems to have had a great day. His key person is great with him and makes me feel at ease. I would recommend this nursery to others.

I was anxious about my son starting nursery especially after the Covid pandemic, but the nursery is something they should all be proud of, brand new, clean and filled with lots of fun activities for the little people. The staff are always very friendly and always available to answer any questions you
have and also to reassure us that our child is settled and happy.

Review from Sheree P (Mother of Child) published on 10 October 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Giggles nursery is outstanding. I was really nervous about sending my daughter to nursery but they made me and my little girl feel so welcome, they provided every bit of information I asked to the highest and they are all exceptional at what they do. I would recommend Giggles just purely on the fact
that they are all amazing people and really friendly they are an all-inclusive nursery which means they provide everything from nappies to wipes to bottles and formula and milk, anything your little one needs they provide, which I think is exceptional as being a busy mum I always tend to forget the simplest things so knowing she has everything there takes one less thing off of my mind. My little girl has been there for maybe a month now and she has learned so much over the past month it’s incredible. Thank you Giggles, your all amazing.

I was really nervous starting my little girl in nursery as she is my first and also a covid baby but everyone at Giggles were fantastic. They were extremely helpful and put me at ease as well as taking time to find out about my little girl. Couldn’t recommend it anymore! They also keep me updated with
pics and updates throughout the day.

My son and I absolutely love the nursery. My son can never wait to go and is sad when it’s not his nursery days! The staff really care about him and make his days at nursery so enjoyable. The app is a fantastic thing too so I can always check up on him and see what he’s doing. In my opinion, this is
one of the best nurseries I’ve come across and cannot thank you all enough!

My 2-year-old attends Giggles. He has always been home with me and due to covid not been with anyone since he was 10 months old due to covid, it was a scary start for me leaving him but I know overall it will do him the world of good. I love the family app and pictures that are posted so I can see what’s
happening on the day. The food is traditional which is what he loves. The nursery offers opportunities to him that I can’t so overall he has the best of both worlds.

Brilliant nursery, friendly staff and my son absolutely loves it. Every time I’ve been welcomed politely asked to come in and see my son as he finished. He always walks out with a massive smile on his face. Lovely place.

My two little boys started Giggles last week. I was a little apprehensive as I was really happy with their previous nursery but decided to move as the location of Giggles was more convenient for me. I can honestly say I’m really impressed and so glad we made the move. The staff have gone above and beyond
to make the boys feel comfortable and welcome at their new nursery. The facilities are amazing the rooms are big and bright with lots going on. The outdoor space is great too. I get regular updates on their daily activities. I’m really excited to see what the future brings for my boys as they continue their time at Giggles.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.796)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.796) out of 10 for Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 14 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 4.946 for Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley is calculated as follows: ( (159 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.946
  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 4.85 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley is based on 14 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 = 3.85
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
