May 24, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has attended giggles since September and she loves it. She has made so many friends and every evening she will fill me in on all the fun things her and her friends and the staff have been doing! They update parents throughout the day via the app with activities the children are doing and what they will be learning about that week. It took a while for her to settle in but the nursery did everything they could to make sure she enjoyed it and settled in eventually. Her favourite activities at nursery are the wake-up shake-up they do each week which involves getting the children active and dancing. I would recommend this nursery never had any problems and nothing is too much bother for the friendly staff.

June 22, 2021 at 12:00 amHonestly, I couldn’t recommend Giggles Day Nursery enough. From my first initial show around, I was put at ease. The manager was so friendly and the whole setting had a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff all welcomed me, straight away interacted with my little girl, and made us both feel comfortable. Giggles use an app which is AMAZING! I get regular video and photo updates. I can see how much my daughter has eaten, slept, and drank as well as nappy changes. The nursery has amazing resources, outdoor areas and is very clean. The high-quality level of care and detail you receive on your child’s day is just phenomenal. The staff have built an excellent relationship with me and my little girl, they take such good care of her. I couldn’t be happier or recommend Giggles enough. Thank you so much for everything you have done for my daughter, she has progressed so much!

June 23, 2021 at 12:00 amThis is by far the best nursery in Leeds! My daughter absolutely loved it there! Fantastic staff who genuinely care about the children! The manager is always so helpful and friendly and always dealt with any questions I had swiftly. My daughter’s nursery nurse taught my daughter how to walk (she was premature and delayed in her development). My daughter came on in leaps and bounds since starting this nursery! Can’t recommend this nursery highly enough!

October 21, 2021 at 12:00 amMy children have been in this nursery since it first opened in 2017, I have seen it grow and change and adapt with the times, as well as undergoing a management change. The care and facilities are both excellent, and the care staff are extremely competent and supportive, I cannot fault the care one bit. However, I have been disappointed on numerous occasions to hear staff members talk in a very negative way about how they were treated by upper management (not the current setup). There also seems to be a very high staff turnover, I see members of staff I have never seen before too frequently for my liking, so consistency may be an issue. The current management setup is very approachable and friendly towards parents, and they deal with any issues promptly and effectively. Overall I am very happy with the service I have had as a parent and my children have been really happy there for a long time.

December 23, 2021 at 12:00 amCould not recommend enough, my son loves everything he does, he comes home and discusses everything and with which member of staff he did what. His development has really improved and I am one happy mummy.

December 29, 2021 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been at Giggles for over a year now and she absolutely loves it! Always asking if she is going to the nursery. The staff are brilliant and so is the care. My daughter has come on so much with her letters, numbers, shapes, motor skills and overall confidence. She is definitely ahead for starting school. I cannot recommend this nursery enough. It is number one in my opinion.

January 4, 2022 at 12:00 amMy daughter has been coming to Giggles full time since September 2021 and we all love it! Her speech has come on leaps and bounds and I put it all down to her getting to do so much interactive play with her peers under the guidance of staff. She adores her Red Room workers and tells me what she’s done and who she has played with every evening.
I really like the app as I can message the Red Room directly with any questions/answers and I get the updates throughout the day on what she’s doing or eating.
Knowing she is having the best time in this setting makes me so happy.

January 4, 2022 at 12:00 amManagement and staff at Giggles are really friendly and willing to help where they can.
My son loves attending and even asks to go on his days off!
They provide useful resources, which keeps me updated on my child’s progress, day to day activities as well as what they’re eating.
I love how they include extra physical activities such as Rugby Tots, which my son loves!

January 13, 2022 at 12:00 amAs a nursery nurse myself I found it very difficult to find a nursery I loved for my son. I knew as soon as I walked in I wanted him to go to Giggles. My son has a severe speech delay and receives additional funding. The staff at the nursery go above and beyond to support him. The manager is always open to talk and support. Giggles always accommodate when I need extra sessions. My son is always happy to go to nursery and all staff know exactly how to support him.

January 13, 2022 at 12:00 amGiggles have been fantastic with my little girl. All staff members are approachable within the setting.
My little girl had a speech delay, she is a fussy eater, she suffered from nerves/anxiety from using nursery toilets
All of my concerns and issues I addressed with the manager and she was fantastic at addressing each issue making sure all the staff were reading off the same page so we had consistency. She drew a plan of action up and we kept in touch to review my little girl’s progress. The manager was great at listening and reassuring me and advising me on what would be the best course of action.
Staff helped her with her speech, she has come along so much since she started at Giggles. The staff always share her achievements and give feedback.
I highly recommend Giggles, the staff go above and beyond and I’m so glad I have such a good relationship with the staff as they do with me.
Thank you for all you do for us, your efforts are greatly appreciated.

February 15, 2022 at 12:00 amWe have been with Giggles since it very first opened its doors in 2017 my then 5-month-old daughter had her very first day in the baby room. A year later our little boy started in the baby room too.
From the first day, it has been a wonderful experience.
There was a period of high staff turnover which at the time concerned us but this has settled.
Nevertheless, the consistency in the childcare was unaffected and every single day has been filled with love, happiness, amazing activities and genuine interest, knowledge and understanding of every child they care for. They work together with parents to achieve the child’s full potential and for this, I am so grateful. Both my children are happy, confident and caring. I know this is because of the time and effort that has been put in by all the amazing staff.
Even when transitioning to school the time, effort and collaboration with the school are above and beyond.
Thank you Giggles you truly are special.

December 30, 2022 at 12:00 amGiggles Day Nursery, Gipton is really an outstanding nursery, as my boy has been filled up with a lot of energy, joy, curiosity and happiness at the end of every day he has been here. There is a range of toys in all rooms, which makes my son really happy to be here. Although he moved to England for just around two months, he has gotten used to a totally new environment much faster than I was afraid of before, thanks a lot to the dedicated childcare of Giggles Day Nursery Gipton.

July 27, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter only goes once a week but she absolutely loves it and talks about her day all weekend. She’s settled so so well and has an amazing bond with the staff. She’s made friends. The staff were amazing helping us with potty training and helping us sort out her separation anxiety. The communication is fantastic. We can message via the app and have an answer within an hour. Overall I’m so glad we chose this nursery for our daughter and I can’t wait to see what the next year brings for her

August 1, 2023 at 12:00 amMy child has really thrived since joining. She will be transitioning to primary school this year and has really had an amazing year with Giggles. All staff are warm friendly and welcoming. I cannot fault the nursery at all the staff really do go the extra mile to help your child succeed.

August 2, 2023 at 12:00 amMy daughter started when she was 8.5 months old. The staff are fantastic, very friendly and obviously enjoy working with young children. Her welcome to nursery really settled my nerves and although she had a couple of days when she was getting upset, the staff are so experienced about settling children this didn’t last long. The communication between nursery and parents is great and I love seeing the updates on the parent app. My daughter really enjoys going to Giggles Day Nursery and enjoys all the activities, it’s really helped with her development. Thank you to all the staff for supporting my daughter.

August 14, 2023 at 12:00 amThe staff at Giggles are all absolutely lovely and you can feel reassured that your child is in good hands. The staff feel like family and have helped both my children come on leaps and bounds. It’s amazing watching them grow in confidence and skills.

August 14, 2023 at 12:00 amI was worried about my son starting nursery as he never really liked to be away from me so I was scared he wouldn’t settle. It took a few weeks for him to settle and then he loved nursery more than ever! He even asks to go to the nursery on a weekend! His development has come on incredible! He can talk so much since starting nursery when he could only say a few words. The management and staff always keep parents in the loop by sending photographs and messages on their development. The nursery staff are lovely and I’m glad I chose Giggles for my son. Overall, I am going to miss my child attending giggles nursery but look forward to his future at big boy school

August 15, 2023 at 12:00 amIndeed excellent care, love, and simply good service. I will definitely recommend Giggles Nursery for any parent who needs peace of mind and to know that your child is under good care. Their activities, learning material and technology are fantastic. Thank you Giggles.
