Absolutely amazing nursery, all of my children have attended here at some point. I have 2 children with additional needs and it makes my worry go away knowing how well looked after my children are, my little boy is in pre school and I don't want him to leave. My little boy runs into nursery without
a care in the world and that says a lot about what this nursery does, couldn't fault them one bit. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

Both my children attend Hilton Street Childcare Wigan, one in preschool and one in baby room and they both love it! The staff always go above and beyond and my kids think the world of all the staff. My 18 month old always comes out of nursery with a big smile on her face! I have just received the Christmas
crafts they have been doing with the staff and the time and effort that has gone into them is amazing!
My child in preschool talks so highly of all the staff and that speaks for itself.


I can't thank all the staff enough for what they do for my children! We are all lucky to have you all.

Our son has attended Hilton Street holiday club all through primary school and has now finished to go to High School after Summer. He loved every minute of it, the staff are very welcoming, and attentive, and they had great trips for the kids to join in over the holidays, we could not fault this place.
Credit to all of the staff, they are brilliant.

Excellent nursery.
My child has come on leaps and bounds over the past couple of years of attending.
They have a wide variety of activities to keep the children entertained and meals are varied to keep the children interested.
Every morning my child is excited to arrive at nursery and is always excited
and smiling throughout the day.
The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful and always ready to listen to any updates we may have about our child.
We get a full breakdown at the end of each day regarding what activities they have done, what they have eaten etc.

My son joined in the toddler room coming from another nursery. The staff made us as a family feel really welcome and made settling in for my son so much easier. He loved going to his new nursery. After toddlers, he went onto pre school again all the staff in this room were so friendly. All the staff
at Hilton Street are amazing and you can see how hard they work and the effort they put into everything they do the children are all so happy. My little boy loved his time here and made so many friends. I would always recommend this nursery.

My child has (and still does) attended since 6 months old.
They are all a very welcoming and supportive bunch in all the rooms.
My child needed a little more support and I can't fault them.
Always attentive, supportive and my child feels like she's cared about from staff to management to even reception.
1
billion per cent recommended.

Great childcare. I receive daily sheets of what my son eats, done with the day and naps. He comes running out happy every day. Feel like he’s blossomed going here and has no regrets. Great links to local primary schools and after-school clubs which I will be continuing when my son is of age.

As I used to work at this nursery, I already knew the majority of the staff there and couldn't think of a better place to send my little girl. All the workers, old and new, are so welcoming and friendly and show their dedication and care day in and day out.

Thank you to all the staff, we couldn’t appreciate you more! My daughter has come along so much since starting Little Giraffes, and loves everyone there! You can clearly tell they all love their jobs and the kids, nothing is too much trouble!

My daughter attended the nursery at Hilton Street Childcare Wigan from 2018-2021 and now attends their breakfast club before school. Hilton Street were absolutely brilliant and continues to be so now, our daughter loved attending nursery and they prepared her so well for starting school. Management
and staff have always been welcoming and informative and the facilities are amazing for keeping the little ones entertained whilst working on their development.

My Son attended Hilton Street Childcare Wigan from Sept 2017 to August 2021 and then since September 2021 he has used their Holiday Club facilities and he loves it. The staff are brilliant, the facilities are great and in my son's opinion their chicken pie is the best he has ever tasted. I highly recommend
this Nursery and even during the difficult times of covid, they worked so hard and even managed to keep it at bay for a good 14 months. When he started school, the nursery had prepped him really well and he just settled right in. Just all round fantastic.

This is a lovely nursery. The key workers are very hands on and caring. Under their supervision, my two year old has overcome her shyness and talks non stop about the 'friends' that she has made. When I collect her, the staff give me a very detailed run down of her day. It is a happy and well run place.

Outstanding. The staff here are excellent and care just as much for the whole family, as they do the child in their setting. This is the best move I've made for my little one. The hours are excellent and flexible, which can suit most family situations.

My little boy loves going to nursery. The staff are very friendly and my boy has come on leaps and bounds since going to this nursery.
The staff was very reassuring when it was my baby’s first day and settled any anxieties I had.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.485)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.485) out of 10 for Hilton Street Childcare Wigan is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 13 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.910 for Hilton Street Childcare Wigan is calculated as follows: ( (142 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.91

  • b) 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 4.575 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Hilton Street Childcare Wigan is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 113 number of registered child places is 22.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 22.6 = 0.575

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
