My review doesn't really have a time scale on it, it's just been since my son started there. The staff go above and beyond for both children and parents. My son's room girls have been supporting us both at nursery but also at home. They always have an alternative if something isn't working, and just
so supportive and encouraging with him. When the nursery changed over from previous owners, my biggest fear was the staff would be going too. Well, I'm glad they didn't.

We absolutely love Tiddlywinks Nursery. Both our girls currently attend, and both have settled so well. Our youngest daughter was born during the lockdown, and it was such a relief when returning to work to know she was going to a place where the team would care for her with love, and she would be having
fun every day. She loves it just as much as I knew she would.
Our eldest daughter is in preschool, and she loves going to the nursery every day, she is learning so much and loves playing with all of her friends. As a parent, it is reassuring to know she will be ready for school both academically and socially when the time comes.

From the moment I first made contact with the office, I was reassured that they would be able to provide the right environment for my children to flourish. They have proven this 1000%!!


The ways in which they have brought my children on in all areas is exceptional, every member of staff within the

setting is an absolute credit to their profession and very dedicated to shaping young minds. They get to know the children as individuals and learn how to enable their growth to their maximum potential.


I would absolutely recommend the setting to everyone looking to enrol their children as they have proven to lead the way in child development. I am able to go to work knowing that my children have the best possible care and the perfect setting to thrive.

My daughter attended the nursery until she started school in September and my little boy has attended since he was five and a half months old. I could never run out of positive things to say about the nursery. If you simply want excellent child care and friendly, supportive trustworthy staff at affordable
prices then this is the nursery for you, I couldn’t imagine my children going anywhere else!

My daughter absolutely loves coming to Tiddlywinks Day Nursery Walmersley. She adores the staff and is happy to toddle in on her own. The staff are really friendly, helpful and go above and beyond. My daughter has a great bond with most of the staff, she comes into contact with not just those within
her room. Thank you again to all the staff that have provided a home from home feel.

My daughter loves it here and we can’t thank the nursery enough for everything they do for her! This month of February was my daughters third birthday, so they made it so special and let us take a cake in and the parent app showed us what she was doing all day with her friends! Such a great idea! My
daughter is so settled and has now started pre-school, so she is looking very grown-up! The staff are great with her and she has friends for life to go up to school from there! We are so happy that she is and can’t thank you all enough! I would recommend this nursery to anyone, even if they had the extra time to travel. Thanks again.

I would not send my child anywhere else! I have always recommended this nursery to family and friends, as they are such an amazing team. From management to key workers you just cannot fault them. If ever I have a query the manager, without fail will respond back to me the same day. The team have really
gone above and beyond to support my niece who has additional needs and supported us as a family. Your advice, support and great care does not go unnoticed. You truly are superheroes.

My daughter has been with the nursery for nearly two years and we have watched her blossom into a bright independent young lady. She has blossomed and is continuously developing new skills from arts and crafts, to the basics of speech. The main thing we notice as parents is that she is always happy
when we pick her at the end of the day. The staff team are very friendly, helpful and always go the extra mile. There are plenty of activities and my favourite thing is the parent app as I get to see pictures and my daughter's daily updates whilst I’m at work. I would recommend this nursery!

Our daughter has been with the nursery since she was five months, she is now almost four years. She loves it and learns so much. Her speech and language have come on so much over the last twelve months, we particularly noticed a difference when she returned after the recent lockdowns. She was very nervous
and reserved after so much time at home but after a few weeks back at nursery with the lovely staff, she skips in now and never stops chatting. Our little boy has just started too at age one and he loves it, there is a big smile on his face all of the time. All the staff are lovely, helpful and friendly and the manager has been so helpful and patient with me and my never-ending questions. A lovely nursery, fantastic staff and a great place for little ones to learn.

My little one loves it here! After a rocky start with a different childminder, I was concerned about how she'd settle but after a few weeks, she was so excited to be coming to nursery. We had quite a long break due to lockdown 2020 but when she returned in September, to an older room, it was like she'd
never been away. Super excited every time we turn onto the road and full of chat about what she's done whilst there. Really lovely that all the staff know her, as well as us as parents and how they get as super excited for her achievements as we do.
It feels like she is spending time with family which I just love.

It’s been such a pleasure to see my little girl flourish in the care of these wonderful ladies! They’ve done an outstanding job at changing hands and truly made me so proud of all their hard work during a pandemic. The ladies are very knowledgeable and informative and know every child inside out. I
love how happy, content and excited my little girl is to be in their care. The love they show to each child shows in the way my daughter talks about her friends, staff and her environment.

Our son has been here for over two years and we couldn't ask for more from a nursery. He's progressed so much with all the help and care he receives from the amazing staff. He's so excited for nursery every day and the staff make sure every day is special. If our son has ever had any problems, the staff
have always done what they can to ensure he's been well looked after and done whatever they can to help make sure the problems solved. I would recommend Tiddlywinks Day Nursery Walmersley to anyone looking for a great nursery that looks after each kid as they were their own.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.951)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.951) out of 10 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Walmersley is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.951 for Tiddlywinks Nursery Walmersley is calculated as follows: ( (353 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 370 Ratings = 4.951

  • 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 Tiddlywinks Nursery Walmersley is based on 31 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 120 number of registered child places is 24, which has been reached with 31 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.
