My daughter has only been with the nursery since February time, however, she absolutely adores it and all of the staff, it’s always such a friendly environment and all the staff have a lovely chat with you at drop off and collection, it’s such a close nursery and I love the fact my daughter asks me
every day to go and play at nursery! I love it and it makes me feel so at ease.

Reply from Rebecca Woollam, Owner/Manager at Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School

Thank you so much for this! Your little one has settled in so well and has made so much progress with her eating. She's a bright little cookie so lovely to be able to challenge her a little too.

After viewing many nurseries I settled for Kinder Giggles for both my children and I am so glad I did. From viewing the nursery I had a good feeling about it straight away the staff was so informative, helpful, and kind. Every member of staff is brilliant you can tell they really care about the children.
I also love the daily updates to see what the children are up to. My daughter has just graduated to start school and I am honestly so sad I wish I would have started her at Kinder Giggles from being a baby. The nursery set up a beautiful graduation party for the children and they really made a big effort. It was so lovely. I would definitely recommend Kinder Giggles.

Reply from Rebecca Woollam, Owner/Manager at Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School

Thank you for such a lovely review and for choosing Kinder Giggles! It means so much that parents love what we offer. We are always sad to see our little ones fly our nest and take those big steps to school and will really miss her!

My son has attended here for around 18 months and it was the best decision we ever made! Every single member of staff is brilliant and friendly and my son loves coming. They do something different every day and the food is all homemade and healthy, you are kept updated throughout the day with what they
are doing and what they have eaten through the app. It's also in the perfect location for the train station to Manchester which makes pick up and drop off so convenient for my commute which is another bonus! Would recommend this nursery to anyone, thank you Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School!

My daughter has attended Kinder Giggles for over 2yrs. The manager and the team of staff have provided my daughter with a safe environment to flourish and I'm so happy she's made lots of friends and enjoys coming to Nursery. It's such a weight of a parent's mind when their child is able to grow and
develop and be happy to attend. I'm ever so grateful for the manager and staff to also guide me with some issues to better understand what my daughter needed. I will be sorry to leave in September and my daughter has said she doesn't want to go to big school as she loves Nursery. I'm glad they now offer after school club so she can still attend when necessary. Can't praise this Nursery enough when you see how happy the children are and what they learn you will too.

My son has been coming to this nursery for the past couple of weeks now. He absolutely loves it he’s come on so well. The staff are brilliant, can’t thank them enough they have helped me with the weaning which terrified me. But thanks to the staff he’s doing brilliantly with his food.

Our eldest child has been going here for nearly three years now, and our youngest started when she was around seven months old. Since they have been going they have both progressed so much; intellectually and socially. They are in a very caring environment and staff are always happy to help you with
any concerns you have in regards to your child. Would definitely recommend.

Reply from Rebecca Woollam at Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School

We are so happy both of them are so settled here. Thank you for choosing Kinder Giggles.

My daughter attends the nursery and they have been amazing. She took a while to settle but the staff knowledge and care was amazing! They did everything to help her settle and now she never wants to come home. She loves nursery and the app is amazing. It let's me know what she is up to and how she has
been all day.

Excellent nursery. All the staff are lovely, my twins love it and have come on so much since starting in July. So glad I chose this nursery for my boys. The app they use is brilliant, it tells you everything throughout the day.

My son has got used to the place, he walks straight in when I drop him off. The staff are wonderful and helpful. The app tells me everything he’s done, which for me is a big thing. I’m glad I chose Kinder Giggles.

Excellent nursery. Very friendly staff. My son has come on leaps and bounds since attending Kinder Giggles. Got to be one of the best in Tameside.

My daughter started this nursery as an 11-month-old baby and has blossomed into a confident, happy toddler of 2 and a half years. She loves coming to this nursery and has made great connections with all the staff and key workers. She is developing every day and I get to see what she has been up to through
the day via the app the nursery use. They have regular updates and you can comment on anything you want and they respond right away. They have a big outdoor area and lots of things for the children to do inside and out.

We love Kinder Giggles. All the staff are lovely and makes the experience stress free. I was so nervous to leave my little girl for the first time but my daughter loves nursery. She's always happy and well cared for. They are great with dealing with allergies too. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Amazing staff. My daughter going to Kinder Giggles has helped her develop more than I ever thought. Not only am I completely at ease leaving my daughter at this nursery, but my daughter jumps around with excitement when she knows she's going to nursery!

My two girls both go to Kinder Giggles. They've only been at the nursery for a few months but they've grown and flourished in a way that they didn't at their last nursery. They've both formed really good bonds with the staff there and my eldest in pre-school has really come out of her shell and grown
in confidence. They both seem to be constantly learning new things and I always know what kind of day they've had because of the app that the nursery use to keep me updated. It's really nice to see photos of their day. I would 100% recommend this nursery, it's such a lovely family feel.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.942)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.942) out of 10 for Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.942 for Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (179 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.942

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kinder Giggles Nursery & Pre-School is based on 16 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 68 number of registered child places is 13.6, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
