This nursery is amazing my son has been coming here since he was 10 months old and does 4 days a week here. The staff are all so lovely and take extra care to take care of his needs. I get regular updates through the app which helps reassure me throughout the day, also receive lots of pictures each week which is really nice to see what he has got up to and he is always so happy in the pictures. He often comes home asking to go back to nursery to see his friends and the staff in the room. He is constantly talking about them. The transitions he has had from each room have all been really smooth for him, their activities always cater to their age ranges and feel like my son has learnt a lot since being at giggle tots Couldn’t recommend enough

I highly recommend this nursery. My grandson attends 4 days a week. He comes hone really happy mentioning the staff members names. He has learnt so much within a year of being there and I am very grateful for the time and attention he receives.

Bad experience , I sent my child here and they came back with a vape. The management have caused generational trauma for my child. They do not want to come back here. My child screams as if they saw a ghost in there. Sometimes the kids are left in the room by themselves. My child once came home with bruises cause a staff member dragged him across the stairs “by accident”. Sent my child to learn his motor skills but the only skill he learnt was how to hold a knife. I would not recommend coming here at all. The giggle in giggle tots is a fake perception of the nursery when it’s making me sad rather than giggly.
