Overall Experience

Our little girl loves attending Tiddlywinks in Milnrow. When she started in September we received nothing but support from all of the staff, as we are first time parents the idea of nursery was quite daunting at first. From the settling in sessions to attending during the week, our little one was welcomed with open arms and we were notified during the day if there were any issues or just given general updates which we greatly appreciate. This is a beautiful setting that has great facilities to help all babies/children develop to their fullest potential and all staff are welcoming and helpful. We have yet to receive a negative experience at Tiddlywinks. The second our little girl is at the building, she is happy and excited for the day ahead.

Overall Experience
Our baby girl has been at the nursery for almost two months now. During this time, we have found the staff and management to be caring, friendly and responsible. They have tried their best to help her settle in and go extra miles to ensure all events and cultures are celebrated with every child; from playing different songs, printing colouring kits. Etc. they welcome suggestions from parents and provide feedback on little one's progress.

We would highly recommend this nursery, where you can trust your little one to be safe.

Review from Charlotte B (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I moved my two year-old daughter to Tiddlywinks midway through her Nursery journey, she's been at Tiddleywinks for about seven months now and I can honestly say it's Outstanding.

The facilities are absolutely beautiful and so well tailored to the children's abilities and needs, it helps that everything is brand-new and well looked after - I think my partner and I described it as a little baby spa when we first visited.

We've had nothing but good experiences with how experienced the staff are, the consistency of the staff, how attentive they are to each child and also us parents. It really just feels like a well rounded positive experience for us as a family.

When our daughter developed a continuous rash, straightaway this was dealt with through tracking, a conversation with the chef who tailored her diet and daily updates of what this allergy could be. It's resolved.

They go above and beyond and they deeply care about each of the families. We're so grateful. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience

The ladies are absolutely wonderful with my son.

Hes really getting settled now. They do lots of fun, interacting and educational activities and I absolutely love my updates on the app.

Love that they encourage and most of the time are successful in getting him to try lots of different foods, something i struggle with at home.

The nursery itself is beautiful, and lots of outdoor space to play.

The girls always make time to say hello and talk to the parents also, with great handovers everyday.

Review from Andy B (Father of Child) published on 24 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Ever since our daughter started going to nursery we were excited for her. But the experience we got from looking around was amazing.
Our daughter then started tiddlywinks and from day one she has loved it.
The staff are all lovely, warm , caring , approachable and most of all, treat our daughter like their own.
That in itself speaks volumes.
Our daughter always has a smile on her face during drop off and pick up and the observations we get sent on the app.

I am really happy we chose tiddlywinks instead of any other nursery.

Review from Mathew W (Father of Child) published on 25 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My little girl is nearly two and absolutely loves going to TiddlyWinks in Milnrow
She's always so happy when we arrive and full of smiles when she comes home, which says everything. She has clearly built a lovely bond with the baby room staff, and often says the names of the staff at home.
The nursery is a warm, caring atmosphere, and the outdoor area is fantastic, especially the little race track with tractors, which is her favorite. She also really enjoys the home-cooked meals, and it's great knowing she's eating healthy, nutritious food.
We were also really impressed by how seriously TiddlyWinks takes safety, all staff have paediatric first aid training, and there's even an anti-choking device on site, which gave us extra reassurance when choosing nursery.
Her Grandad attended a stay and play session, and he was made to feel so welcome by the team. It was lovely for him to see how confident and happy she in her surroundings.

We honestly couldn't ask for a better nursery, Thank you!

Overall Experience

My little girl has attended this nursery since April 25, she absolutely loves coming to nursery, she loves all the messy play activities and she is always playing with something different. She has built amazing bonds with her keyworker and also another member of staff, I was so nervous for her to start nursery but she's in safe hands and I couldn't wish for a better place for her to attend.

Overall Experience

We absolutely love Tiddlywinks Milnrow! Our baby girl is always so excited for nursery days and we couldn't have hoped for better people to leave our little one with. All of the staff are so caring, nurturing, professional and approachable. They are so thorough in their knowledge of each child and making sure everything is up to date. Things such as weaning are taken into consideration so carefully, to make sure each child has exactly what they need. As a first time parent I was anxious at the thought of my baby girl starting her nursery journey so young, but as soon as we stepped through the doors at Tiddlywinks Milnrow we knew it was the best decision we had ever made. I am so excited to watch my little one grow and flourish on her journey with her amazing key person and the fabulous team of nursery practitioners that she spends her time with.

Reply from Sophie Thomas, Nursery Manager at Tiddlywinks Nursery Milnrow

Thank you for your kind comments about our nursery and the care your daughter receives. I will be sure to pass your lovely feedback onto the team - it truly means a lot to us. It is a pleasure to care for her and we look forward to continuing our partnership with you and watching her grow and thrive.

Overall Experience
I'm absolutely over the moon with Tiddlywinks Nursery!
The staff are incredibly kind, helpful, and consistently go above and beyond for my little boy. The nursery environment is completed to an exceptionally high standard - it's immaculate, perfectly designed for young children, and filled with amazing, learning-focused toys.
The food provided is fresh, delicious, and offers a wonderful variety. My little boy is thoroughly enjoying every meal and trying new things.
He's encouraged to learn, play, read, explore, and use his imagination every single day. The arts and crafts projects he brings home are fantastic - creative and thoughtful.

I truly don't have a single criticism. I'm so happy with every aspect of the nursery and feel incredibly lucky to have found such a special place for my child.

Overall Experience
I have two children at Tiddly Winks Milnrow, I cannot put into words how pleased I am so far. The manager and a specific member of staff and the rest the team have gone above and beyond to ease their transition to a new nursery setting.
The communication is outstanding, I feel completely at ease with my boys being there, and they are both really enjoying nursery days.
The facilities are exceptional and plenty of outdoor space/playing frames for the boys to run wild! Everything is done to an incredible standard both inside and out.

I cannot recommend the nursery enough!
