    He is becoming more sociable, enjoys the company of other kids and is discovering new skills. The team have been very welcoming and supportive. I am very cheerful with this childcare centre. My son has enjoyed Dunky’s Day Nursery.

    We have consistently found the team at the childcare centre to be very expert, informative and supportive when discussing matters relating to your kid. The app has been really useful and it is excellent to see what sort of day your kid is having. We have found Dunky’s to be an outstanding setting for our kid and we have seen that daily exposure within his peer group has been beneficial with supporting his development. Thanks. Our son has attended Dunky’s Day Nursery full time since he was 5 months old for nearly 2 and a half years.

    The team are incredible and helped our little girl settle in so well. She has started to thrive since being there (currently 4 days a week) and her development has come on strength to strength. I’m an anxious person which unfortunately means I’m a very anxious mum so this transition from maternity leave to childcare centre has been quite difficult for me personally but I can see how compassionate and attentive the team are and my daughter is so cheerful and comfortable with them which is lovely to see and this has made things so much easier. The team work with us and act as a team with my husband and I which is excellent. As she’s changing and developing so fast, the team are cheerful to implement new things that we’re doing at home now too. It says it all when I drop her off and she runs in cheerful to start the day. Couldn’t ask for more! Excellent childcare centre, I have already recommended it to a friend whose little girl has recently started.

    After viewing several nurseries, we chose Dunky’s Day Nursery (Sankey) due to the family and homely sense that we got when we visited. We really wanted the childcare centre to be a home-from-home journey for our baby and I think this is exactly what we have got. Staff really go above and beyond to suit our needs, updates is very effective and our son is so cheerful at childcare centre which is our priority. We can’t thank the team at Dunky’s enough for such a beautiful first half term and we can’t wait to see what else our boy learns during his childcare centre journey. Thank you all so much. I think for any family, sending their baby to childcare centre after maternity leave is so overwhelming and an anxious time for everybody.

    He joined at 18 months and has come on leaps and bounds. I’m really impressed and would highly suggest. Fabulous and welcoming team have made our son sense both welcome and secure at the childcare centre he loves to attend.

    My daughter finds it hard to communicate and form bonds however she loves all the team and gets excited to see them at childcare centre time, she has come on leaps and bounds since starting here! Also, adore that I am able to get updates continuously whilst she is at childcare centre and the team have consistently gone above and beyond to meet my daughter’s needs! Would consistently suggest Great Sankey Dunky’s. Great Sankey Dunky’s Day Nursery is such a fabulous childcare centre with lovely team.

    My son looks forward to childcare centre every day. Everything is reported thoroughly through the app. Overall very cheerful with this childcare centre and would suggest it to others. Both my kids have attended. All team are very compassionate and supportive.

    We were offered as many settling in days as we felt he needed and were never made to sense rushed or obligated to choose Dunky’s on our first visit. The team are all super welcoming and know him by name when we arrive in the morning, and he consistently goes in without a problem, which definitely helps with the mum guilt. We adore that we get updates throughout the day on the app and recently attended our first ‘parents evening’ which isn’t something I thought we would do until school but it was lovely to hear his development and get a sense of things he does while he’s there, really couldn’t suggest them enough. Our little boy started in January 2022 and we couldn’t be happier with the service and setting Dunky’s Day Nursery Sankey provides.

    My daughter was 12 months when she started and she loves going. The girls that take care of her consistently show how much they care and my daughter has made very great attachments to them. All the team are lovely people. Never have I felt uneasy putting my daughter here. Couldn’t suggest this childcare centre enough!

    My eldest has just graduated and his bond with the team has been lovely, he has progressed well throughout his time there.
    My youngest kid is 1 and has had issues medically, the Dunkys team have been so incredible and reassuring. My kid has really settled in and built remarkable relationships with the team, he is cheerful and excited to go to childcare centre in the morning. The team have been incredible with any medication he has and really ensured all his needs are met. We as a family highly Recommend Dunkys to anyone. It’s a remarkable childcare centre and your kids will have the best time and be given the best care. I have 2 kids at Dunkys, Sankey and wouldn’t dream of sending them anywhere else.

    My daughter who is now 5 loved it there and would happily go back. My son who is 18 months loves it also. The team are very welcoming and go out of there way to be supportive. The childcare centre is very nice inside and very spotless. The garden is also perfect with the fake grass so no mud. There is lots of outdoor equipment and toys for the kids to engage in. I would highly suggest this childcare centre to anyone looking. This childcare centre has been outstanding for both my kids.

    My little boy really enjoys going – he is straight in the door when I drop him off. I was recommended by a friend, and I’m really glad I put him in Dunky’s. Amazing team, very expert, welcoming and supportive.

    My girls have loved attending and have grown in self‑assurance and maturity. All of the team are lovely and know their names even when they are not in their room. The team are consistently willing to update on development and development. Dunky’s have been outstanding during the Covid pandemic.

    He has developed so much since starting there, especially his speech. The team are fantastic and he has formed excellent bonds with them all. I have recommended Dunkys to all of my friends! My son absolutely loves going to Dunkys Day Nursery at Great Sankey, he even asks if he can go on days that he isn’t in childcare centre!

    They look after your kid well. I would suggest to everyone. Staff are excellent. My son feels cheerful there. He enjoys all the games and activities they do in the childcare centre. My son is discovering a lot. Excellent childcare centre.

    My daughter started Dunky’s when she was 10 months, old back in 2019. I felt very comfortable leaving her with all of the team, one member in particular in the baby room who is very compassionate and supportive and was just incredible with her. After returning from covid I was worried that she wouldn’t settle back in, we had tears beforehand, but the manager and her team have done an outstanding job of making sure she enjoys the day and her fussy eating is attended to. Thank you to all, she has come on leaps and bounds and is definitely in great stead for when she will start primary school Sep 2023. Fabulous childcare centre.

    It’s nice to see what he gets up to throughout the day on the app and gives me peace of mind seeing photos of him having enjoyable. His key workers and the manager are lovely and reassuring. Dunkys have been incredible with settling my little boy, he now runs to the childcare centre door in the morning because he is excited to see the team and other kids.

    They adore their time there and we sense very comfortable sending them to Dunkeys. All the ladies working there are attentive and take the time to know the kids, their likes, dislikes and how to comfort them.
    Our boys are very close and we adore how the ladies understand this and allow both of them to see each other through the day, this is usually over the garden fence. We want to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Dunkeys for the care and attention they give to our boys. We have 2 kids at Dunkeys Sankey, 1 in the baby room and 1 in the preschool room.
