Giggles have been fantastic for our little one. The staff have been amazing, very friendly and helpful. Lots of communication and pictures throughout the day so we can see how he's doing, what he's up to and what he's eaten. Lots of home-cooked food plus snacks during the day and lots of toys, events
and day trips to keep him amused entertained through the day.

The nursery has such a warm, welcoming and most importantly homely feeling.
The management and staff are kind, patient, and generous. As well as friendly, professional, and supportive. 
The nursery is always clean and organized with a calm and happy atmosphere. 
The nursery keeps me informed about
my child's progress, health risks, and upcoming events.
The manager and assistant manager are always on top form with keeping parents notified with useful information, with exceeding care as they offer such helpful support in any situation. Always providing excellent care and making my daughter feel loved. Giggles Nursery is responsive to individual requests, such as changes to sleep routines or diets. Always above and beyond!
To also meet the needs of children with special educational needs (SEN) as noted through other existing parents that also have children who attend this setting. The nursery shows respect for children's culture, tradition and religion. Outstanding Nursery!

My little lad loves going here, they do so much with him and he's come on so much since attending, all the staff are lovely and friendly. I get regular updates about his day via the app which I really like so I don't feel like I'm missing out whilst at work. Would highly recommend this nursery.

My little girl has gone to Giggles since the baby room and is now in preschool. The staff are amazing with her and really spend the time to get to know her and her interests. They really are like one big family. My little girl loves going to nursery and always runs straight in. The staff form amazing
bonds with the children and I would not send her anywhere else!

Our son and daughter have flourished over the last couple of years at Giggles!
The staff have become extended family who have provided us with confidence, daily updates (in person and via their app) and made sure that our children have been supported in a fun and safe environment.
The children are
taught social, educational and practical skills in preparation for their transition to primary school.
If you're looking for a nursery in this area, I'd highly recommend Giggles, we can't thank the management and their team enough!

The first day at nursery and the team are amazing.
Really made sure my child was settled in on his test days and today.
I really appreciated all the photos on the app and the artwork and the detailed conversation at the end of the day.
First-time mother leaving little baby for the first time and
they made it so easy.
They were so understanding.
Lovely team.

Great staff, all very friendly and experienced with multiple issues, (my daughter has an unsafe swallow and milk allergy). Always kept well informed on what she has eaten/drank throughout the day. The app is brilliant for constant contact and updates. Lovely clean rooms with lots to explore and outdoor

The best! My daughter has some complex needs that would be considered quite rare that require a lot of understanding and patience, the Giggles staff are amazing, really go out of their way to keep me up to date and celebrate every little win we achieve, always have time to discuss any concerns or progress.
Today my daughter had quite a serious episode and they were amazing, I couldn't have asked for more from them, really comforted me to see she was in good hands, I'm sure she gave them all a real scare but they were great. My daughter loves going to Giggles and has learnt so much since joining in September and they have really helped her in many ways. Huge thank you to all the girls, we appreciate you all.

My eldest started in September last year and the difference in her is astounding! All the staff have helped to settle her and made her feel comfortable, which we couldn’t be anymore grateful to them for! Our daughter has become such a confident, happy little character and we truly believe that’s because
of nursery and the staff within. Our youngest has just started last week and again the transition into settling her has been the best! Nothing is ever too much and they’re forever keeping you updated and making sure they’re doing everything they can for the best interests of the child. I know I’m not the easiest parent, but you wouldn’t believe I wasn’t as the staff are always there to chat and to ensure your needs are also met. There’s no such thing as too many questions or taking too much time as they’re just always there. I can genuinely say they’re family now! I will be so so sad when my girls leave. Thank you Giggles Bramley!

Both my son and daughter attend this nursery, and I can’t begin to explain how amazing all the staff at Giggles Nursery, Bramley are. Both my daughter and son love coming here; they enjoy all their time and have developed/learned more than I thought they would. When my daughter first started, it was
difficult to have her learn colours and numbers, but since attending Giggles Nursery, we now have full conversations and can count to 10, she knows all her colours, and I am so thankful to Giggles Nursery for all the help and support they have given me. I have had support from the staff regarding potty training, and I had my son trained within three days. Thank you all for all the help you have given me - highly recommend them.

Absolutely fantastic nursery. My little girl started nursery at nine months old. As all Mums, I was worried about how she would settle, if the environment would be as it was when I had seen it visiting etc. My little girl started at a previous nursery and at her last settling in session I wasn’t happy,
so at last minute removed her and found Giggles. I took an extra week off work to ensure my daughter was settled somewhere before returning. The staff at the nursery in green room went above and beyond to ensure my little girl was settled and I was reassured. The girls and the manager all made sure my daughter settled in and updated me regularly throughout her sessions. The app is amazing and such a real time app. Today I received a letter to say my daughter will be starting her settling in sessions in yellow room and, whilst I’m sure the staff in that room are amazing too, I’ll miss the green room staff! Such a good bunch of girls, who always go the extra mile!

My son has been here since September and he absolutely loves it! The staff are very friendly and clearly dedicated to their jobs. The senior staff are approachable and everybody seems to enjoy working there. My son always comes home with a smile and either glitter in his hair or paint on him. They do
many different activities with the children. I couldn't be happier.

She is always so excited to arrive and comes home full of smiles telling us what activities they've been getting up to. The staff are all so welcoming and lovely. They keep us updated throughout
the day on the Famly app too. I would definitely recommend Giggles to anyone looking for childcare!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.922)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.922) out of 10 for Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.922 for Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley is calculated as follows: ( (166 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.922

  • 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 Giggles Day Nursery - Bramley is based on 15 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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 15 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.
