Carol and Julie and the other girls are just amazing, my daughter joined when she was 2 and a half and has come on in leaps and bounds they have such a great setting here and Amelia just settled in straight away, she didn’t want to come home most days. I’m so happy I found this nursery and they have been the best thing for me and my daughter and I can’t thank them enough xx

Ahh, thank you so much Philippa. It's been a pleasure and we know Amelia will be amazing at her new school xx 😘
This is an absolutely outstanding childcare setting, providing brilliant care on virtually a one to one basis. My son came on so well having moved to Wiggles & Giggles from a much larger and less personal setting. He is positively thriving here and his learning has come on tenfold. Julie, Carol & the staff care so much about the children, there was not a doubt in my mind that this was the best setting for my child to be and cared for within. I would recommend this nursery to anyone reluctant to leave their child, outgoing or anxious children or anyone seeking the best care for their child.

Ahh, Thank you so much Coral. Your little one is a pleasure to look after xx
Our daughter attended wiggles and giggles from being around 10 months old until she was two and a half. Naturally, I had all of the usual parent worries about returning to work after maternity leave and placing my daughter into childcare for four days a week. However, any concerns I had were very quickly forgotten about because she settled in so well right from the beginning and the whole team at Wiggles were so great.
Our daughter absolutely loved going to nursery and it made all that guilt about working and putting her into childcare disappear. She made some lovely friends and developed massively during her time there. Her speech developed very quickly and we had a lot of comments about how well she spoke for her age, and I felt the wiggles team contributed a lot to this. They do so many activities with the children, our daughter was always coming home with different creations and things she’d made whilst at nursery.
Carol and Julie are exceptional and I couldn’t have asked for better people to be looking after our daughter. It really was like they were extended family. They went above and beyond, were always available to speak to or message if needed, if she was ill they always made the effort to check on how she was even outside of nursery hours. They even came along to our daughter’s christening, to which we only invited close family, but they felt as though they were.
We were very sad to have to leave the setting, and only did so when we moved house and the longer commute for us became too difficult, but in fact we kept this up for a year after moving house as we were so reluctant to move our daughter from such a lovely setting.
Julie and Carol also went above and beyond during lockdown 2020. They read books and sang songs to all the children before bed over a specially formed WhatsApp group that they organised. They did this every weekday evening before bedtime for the entirety of lockdown and during their own personal time. This meant so much at such a difficult time and our daughter really looked forward to story time/song time with Carol and Julie every evening. This also kept everyone’s spirits up and meant that it didn’t feel like we’d lost contact during the extended time away. I felt this really did encapsulate their commitment and dedication to the children that they look after. Even after our daughter left the setting, she has been back for visits and Carol and Julie continue to keep in touch. I could not recommend this setting, and in particular Julie and Carol, highly enough. They really are outstanding.

Ahh, thank you for the lovely review.
We look forward to seeing Harper again soon and hopefully finally meeting Reuben x
Wow well what can I say about these 2 amazing individuals, Carol and Julie has supported, nurtured, encouraged my little girl to be the amazing little individual she is today. My little one spend 2 years with them both and she loves every minute, the home form home environment with the added learning is a perfect setting for your little ones to grow. No words can express my gratitude for what these 2 wonderful ladies have done for my daughter and I highly recommend them to anyone.
I can’t recommend this setting enough. My boy started here at the age of one and he loved it. It’s got a lovely home environment but with the benefits of professional set up like a nursery. Julie and Carol are very friendly and accommodating and my little one happily jumped into their arms every morning. They do lots of activities, if we didn’t have to move due to location my boy would of happily stayed here till school. First class provider!
My Little boy joined the setting when they first set up and he was only 7 months old. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect setting for him. They are great in every way and he has loved it from day one and made lots of memories and friends along the way. They have been so accommodating with work hour changes and Julie and Carol just work so well together and really do love their job which reflects on the days with the children! My little man will be starting school in just over a month and I will be very sad to see him leave the setting. The activities, facilities and food is awesome!
My children have both attended Wiggles from early ages (10 months and 1 yr +) and we have been so delighted with the home-from-home environment provided. The attention to detail with the meals, activities and keeping parents updated with daily news and events is excellent and so reassuring. I particularly liked the balance between providing a homely setting and providing new and challenging activities. Julie and Carol genuinely care about the children and they have been really flexible and accommodating when we have needed extra hours at the last moment.

Dear Alice,
Thank you for lovely review. It s a pleasure to have your gorgeous children.
Our two children started here in November 2013 after a short spell at a nursery and we couldn't have been luckier to find such lovely people to look after them!
Carol and Julie have been amazing from the start helping both children to grow and develop so much! They have enjoyed various activities, groups and trips out. Particularly the baking (me too!) and the fruit and vegetable picking from the garden. I loved reading the daily diaries and frequently seeing their learning journals too!
Sad to leave but will hopefully still see them around
