Reviews manager of daynurseries.co.uk, Amanda Hopkins said: 
“We would like to congratulate Chuckles Nursery on being rated by parents as a top nursery in Wales! Being rated so highly by family and carers of children that attend the setting is a huge achievement.

"Our award is valuable recognition from parents and carers that this nursery is offering their children an excellent standard of care and a stimulating environment, which will help boost their development and hopefully create a lifelong love of learning.

We hope these awards give parents that much needed guidance in choosing the right nursery for their child.”

Director of Chuckles Nursery, Lisa Owen was delighted.

She said: "This is the 8th year in a row that we have won this award. Its an amazing award because it is based on reviews from the parents whose children have attended Chuckles and they write them as their child leaves for school, so we know they mean every word.

“We link the Day Nurseries reviews to our website so people can read them knowing they are authentic. Our team are dedicated in their roles and professional and passionate about the care they provide and they totally deserve this recognition.”
