The Nursery has a great garden which includes a role play, cycle track, sand pit, shade sail, outdoor classroom, nature exploration garden and much more.

The nursery is attached to the reception part of the school, which really helps with the transition to ‘big school’ for the preschoolers. The nursery children also have use of the school field, which makes going outdoors more exciting.

Where to begin? The nursery is excellent! Our son started after he was two years old for a couple of mornings a week. He joined the 'baby' class and was cared for by his key worker. What a lovely lady, he learned to walk and talk with her help and he talks of her fondly.
Now, having been through a
few different age groups our son is in the preschool class. He attends Monday to Friday. He is confident, sensitive to others and he loves learning. His current teacher/leader is energy itself and a true inspiration. She is exactly what our son needs and I thoroughly trust and enjoy our daily debrief.
I would recommend this nursery, the location and facilities are excellent. The staff are caring and highly trained. Our son has gone from strength to strength and has loved his time at the nursery. And this is from a dad who used to sit on the grass outside the nursery with a son who cried and refused to let go and go inside (a member of staff came out and rescued us). Thank you.

A nursery I feel should be chosen because of the people that will be working with your child and that is exactly why we selected bright horizons Twickenham meadway, the staff are so genuine, caring, just lovely people, it’s a bonus that the facilities, including amazing garden, great choices of food
and activities are all fantastic too! Our son is so happy there, had made wonderful connections with the staff and fantastic friends also! They are flexible, have time to talk about his day at pick up, and always friendly! Thoroughly recommend them!

My son has been attending Meadway Under 2's for a few months now and absolutely loves it. They were really understanding about settling him in slowly as he hadn't been around many people with lockdown, but he settled very quickly and now goes straight up to the staff to hold their hands to go into
for the day, and always comes out smiling having had a lovely time. I can't help but peek through the window every time and he's always busy with some activity. I've noticed him to be much more confident around others too.

We have had 2 children go through the Twickenham Bright Horizons from baby room to preschool. We have found the care to be excellent and our children have been extremely happy there. We have come to know the staff very well, and know they have come to care for our children, as our children do for them.

I was very apprehensive about putting my daughter into nursery for the first time, but the office manager and team were absolutely brilliant at Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool. Luckily before Covid struck, I managed to view the nursery. I was super impressed by the rooms,
the team and equipment available for the children. Since joining, my daughter has come on leaps and bounds! She has surprised us all with her progress and we are so proud of her! We appreciate all the support the nursery manager and her team have given our daughter over the past few months to help settle her in. We are so gutted to be leaving, however as a family we are relocating! We will definitely try and find another Bright Horizons nursery for our little one to join. Thank you again!

My child is always looking to attend nursery, happy and feeling confident. Since she started she has improved a lot in her speaking, sociability and learning skills. She is encouraged to be as independent as she can. Staff is very friendly, capable, and looking after not only the child but also the
family altogether. They're always reachable, you always get to know who your child's teachers are and interact with them daily. I feel they respect my child's timings when related to education, socialising and learning not pushing her at all.

I have always found Asquith Preschool room to be inviting, caring and attentive. Time is taken to greet and invite my child at drop off. The staff have been professional and created a 'home from home'. I feel confident that my child is well looked after and is being helped to grow on every preschool
day.

I was very anxious about putting my child into nursery for the first time. The staff did absolutely everything to make me and most importantly, my child, feel comfortable. In the time that my child has been at nursery, her development has been outstanding and we really couldn't ask for more. We went
from three full days a week to five full days as she absolutely loves it and benefits so much from the social aspect to learning and development. A huge thank you to all the staff for their hard work.

We have been very happy with our son's care while he has been in the toddler room. All of the staff are warm and welcoming and we knew they had our son's best interests at heart. The care and affection the ladies have shown has just been amazing and it has been amazing and it has been lovely watching
our son develop great relationships with them all.
The rooms is always clean and well set up and we would highly recommend Asquith Trafalgar Day Nursery.

My children have thrived at the preschool. They've made very good bonds with their carers and have made some really good friends that will hopefully keep for some time. The preschool staff have always listened carefully to my concerns and have worked very closely with us to ensure that the children
feel safe and happy every morning. Now that my children are moving onto school I can honestly say that we have all benefitted from the preschool experience. The children will really miss everyone.

Overall our child has had a good experience at Trafalgar Day Nursery and he has made good progress in many areas. Staff has been good and we have particularly valued those who have been there on a more permanent basis although many others were lovely too. We just felt that they didn't know our child
that well at times. Sometimes I think the class/bathroom should be cleaner.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.832)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.832) out of 10 for Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.832 for Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (169 Excellents x 5) + (32 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.832

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 17 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 83 number of registered child places is 16.6, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
