Review from K S (Mother of Child) published on 14 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am so pleased I chose Ducklings Blackley, they have proven time and time again that they always put the children first and make sure they get the best experiences during their time at nursery from trips to daily activities. The manager is the example that sets the tone for all staff in professionalism, care and trust, an asset to the nursery. They are a brilliant nursery and every member of staff has clearly been chosen well due to their care, enthusiasm and ethics, cannot praise them enough. The only criticism is the outdoor space that needs updating but I know this is not an easy task.

Reply from Deborah Walters, Owner at Ducklings at Blackley

Thank you so much for your feedback. Unfortunately with not owning the building we do what we can to provide a safe but challenging outside area, which the children appear to enjoy! We are delighted you feel you made the right choice in Ducklings. Thank you for your support.

The communication from the staff is excellent, keeping us informed about her progress and activities. I couldn't be happier with our choice and highly recommend Ducklings Nursery to all parents!

Overall Experience

This nursery has made constant improvements, always looking to provide the best care and genuinely has the loveliest staff. They had their Ofsted recently and to quote the report. Staff have created a calm and tranquil learning environment for children. As children arrive, their laughter fills the air and the atmosphere buzzes with their excitement. That speaks volumes as well as management being incredibly welcoming and helpful, I can't praise them enough!

Overall Experience

Absolutely brilliant nursery. The staff are great. My little boy has been very happy there and will be sad to leave for big school. Lots of activities to do. Great meals. Attentive staff. Best nursery I've used so far, absolutely no problems whatsoever.

Overall Experience
My daughter has only just recently started at Ducklings in the new term and I am very very happy that I have chosen Ducklings for my daughter, it's a lovely little nursery and the staff are all amazing and very helpful, we had a bit of a problem with getting her to nursery as it was all new to her at the start and we were both nervous and the staff were so supportive and helpful helping me find ways and making it easier for me to get her there, the manager even came to meet me in the morning to assist me with getting her into nursery which helped a lot and was very grateful for, she now really enjoys going to nursery and says that her teachers are her best friends, she has also learned so much and developed so much with the help of this nursery and is learning new things and making new friends every day I couldn't recommend Ducklings enough the staff are amazing and have great relationships with all the children.

Thanks so much Ducklings.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Ducklings Blackley since she was 1 and whenever any of my friends are looking for a nursery, I can't recommend them enough! They have been absolutely amazing with my daughter - I couldn’t believe how fast she settled and how lovely the staff are with her. She hops into nursery every morning and has said herself that she loves her ‘school’, as she calls it. The setting is very homely and the staff make so much effort in making sure they know each child individually and really focus on their interests and needs. The staff are honestly fantastic and always keep me updated on my daughter’s day-to-day adventures and developments. I have watched my daughter grow and develop so much since she started at ducklings and they deserve all the credit for how well she is doing! I also 100% trust the nursery and I think that is also very important.
