The care, comfort and attention provided to my baby is amazing. I feel confident when I drop my baby at the nursery.
The staffs are very professional and always perform their duties with full responsibility.
23 March 2026
I chose Tiddlywinks for my son after his original nursery closed. He started here just before his second birthday and I wish he'd move sooner! From his very first day I felt that he was safe and cared for and he has been thriving ever since. The staff here listened to our concerns, reassured us and
have supported his development exceptionally. Each and every member of staff has made an effort to get to know us and our child, and it genuinely feels like we're dropping him off with family. I'll be devastated to move on from Tiddlywinks when my son moves to reception.

Our daughter has been at Tiddlywinks Ancoats for the past 18 months, starting in the baby room, through the tweenie room, and now into the preschool room. I can honestly say it has been a fantastic experience and our daughter absolutely loves it! She has really come out of her shell here with the
support of staff across all rooms.
At 2.5 years old she knows her numbers from 1-12, understands two languages, speaks well, knows her colours and shapes, and has very good emotional regulation. I feel that the staff at Tiddlywinks have really helped support her growth in all of these areas which is fantastic!. The app is great and is constantly updated throughout the day. The facilities are great, very good food options, and then there are day trips and stay and play sessions where the parents can get involved.
Honestly we couldn't be happier here :)

The staff seem to know each child's individual needs and treats them with a friendly caring approach, from the nursery nurses, cook and cleaning staff, it's a well run, professional happy and well organised clean little safe place.
There's always a relaxed atmosphere we're the children seem happy
to be, if you have any concerns all the staff are approachable and more than happy to listen and help.

We're so happy with our experience at this nursery. The staff are warm, caring, and genuinely invested in our child. It's a safe, nurturing environment with engaging activities, and we've seen such lovely growth in our child's confidence and development. We feel completely reassured leaving them
each day and would highly recommend it to other parents

My boys have been at this nursery for 2 and a half years only eldest who is 3 is showing signs of autism I could not thank C enough for everything she has done for my boy she's been his comfort whilst attending always supporting him they've built such a strong bond together which makes me feel so
much at ease as a mother knowing there's somebody who understands him and his needs in a different setting than at home. Not only has she supported my son in the best way but she has also supported myself when I've struggled emotionally and mentally. She's supported me in ways from home life struggles with my sons needs to even supporting which school would be best for my son to go to, she's been there whenever we both have needed her I wouldn't have been able to do anything we've achieved with him so far without her, I will be forever grateful for C and I'm sure my son feels the same at 3 as he always mentions C at home too. Thank you so much C for being our rock.

We have two children in Tiddlywinks Ancoats, attending this nursery since they were babies. The nursery is located in a pleasant green space, with its own large garden and playground. The team is very engaged and enthusiastic, professional and with vast knowledge of children's development processes
and needs. We are very happy with this nursery and the boys enjoy their time there.

My daughter loved to go to this nursery. This was her first nursery ever. She went there for over 16 months and she absolutely loved it, and so did we. Her development was amazing. Her interactions with other children, speech and language progress and even activities that she did - it was all
superb. We were given a full detailed handover at home time every single day.
It's been a month that my daughter has left the nursery because we moved houses and this one is really far now, but there haven't been 2 days in a row when my daughter hasn't mentioned her key worker's name and asked for her. In fact she keeps mentioning multiple people from there. She moved up from Baby room to toddler room and made friends everywhere.
Superbly amazing staff. It was a wonderful experience. You can depend on them to take care of your child and keep them safe.
I also attended a first aid session at the nursery which was very helpful.

All staff have been absolutely amazing with both my kids, helped them settled really well and they love being in nursery, just goes to show the love and attention that goes into each individual child. Super friendly and accommodating yours and your child needs. Thank you.

Such a wonderful nursery! I feel so happy and confident having my little girl with you. From the very first day, I felt a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and I knew I had made the right choice. The staff are incredibly kind, caring, and professional, always ensuring that every child feels safe,
happy, and valued.

My son has a great time at nursery, evidenced by him often running in and is happy to get dropped off. His talking has improved considerably since coming to Tiddlywinks, as has his confidence and social skills. There are always plenty of staff around to look after him, and they all know even if
they're from separate rooms, and he doesn't mind who he is handed over to in the morning. Whenever I attend, they are usually playing in a group, and are often playing outside. There's a wide variety of meals provided, and he is offered food we would not think to offer him at home.

We are extremely happy with the care and attention our child receives at Tiddlywinks Nursery Ancoats.The staffs create a warm, supportive atmosphere that encourages our child's growth and happiness. Our child loves going to Nursery each day, thanks to the caring staff and the fun, stimulating
activities they provide.
20 September 2024
The team at Tiddlywinks Nursery Ancoats are fantastic. My second child has just begun in the baby room and they've been more than welcoming and supportive in getting him settled in. He loves it! I chose this nursery after such a fantastic experience here with my first child and their standards
remain as high as they were then, during the COVID period.
Highly recommend.

Had a warm welcome from the staff. Great experience with the staff. Very welcoming and friendly. The process and procedures were clearly explained by the staff. There is enough parking in the compound.

We've had the best experience with this nursery my daughter comes here and they have been amazing with her. All the staff are absolutely lovely and will always greet me with smiles on Pick up and drop-offs.
Our son also attended this Nursery one year ago but has some difficulties, we were
previously turned away by another nursery as they said they couldn't tend to his needs. When I got in contact with Tiddlywinks for a possible place for my son I spoke to the manager who assured me that my son was more than welcome at the setting. The Nursery went above and beyond to help him settle in. The staff took the time to understand him and get to know him and his needs, which started to show in his behaviour as he was so happy to attend. He has now moved on to primary school however the staff will always ask how he is.
I can not fault this nursery and all the staff!
Thank you for being amazing with my children and I will continue recommending this setting to all my friends and family.

Can't speak highly enough of the nursery. My daughter was quite upset at first but now skips in. Her development and social skills have come on so well.
Really appreciate that all members of staff learn all the children's names too, even when they work in different classrooms they always make you
feel welcome.

Tiddlywinks is an amazing nursery. My son loves his teachers and they are also very friendly and welcoming. Amazing nursery manager with a good sense of humour. My son started from the baby room, it's amazing how mature he is now, he started being a lot more independent from the activities he
partakes in at the nursery. Delighted to have put him there.

Tiddlywinks provides a welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff who genuinely care about our daughter's development. The outdoor space offers ample room for exploration, complete with chickens adding to the charm. Our daughter adores three members of staff in particular for their attentive care and
engaging interactions. Overall, it's a fantastic environment for young learners, our daughter loves it and we feel very comfortable entrusting her care with her nursery family.

My son is a very clingy and shy person, the nursery staff are really good to him, such that his settling-in process was smooth which I didn't expect to be so easy. All their staff are bubbly and you can tell that they really love the kids and its not just a job to them, they are an amazing bunch.
The only downside is they don't really update on a daily basis what the child has done updates are either not done or they come days or weeks later other than that this nursery is superb and I love how the staff are so dedicated to the kids, as a mum I know they are a good bunch especially when your child comes home and naming and imitating the teachers he has engaged with during the day in a good way and he is looking forward to the next day. Would recommend this setting a thousand times.

This is an amazing nursery with very caring staff. My little boy is very active and they let him express himself and encourage it, which is all part of his learning and development. He settled in really well and the staff are always very welcoming and kind. My only comment would be, there is room
for improvement in their learning, particularly on speech development for the babies, this is an area that could be given a little more attention. Overall, a great a nursery and I will totally recommend.
