All staff have been and are amazing with both my children. I can’t fault the nursery or staff at all - my youngest child suffers from congenital heart defects and the staff make sure my son's needs are met to a top standard. Both my children have always been happy to go to nursery and sometimes don’t
want to leave, when it’s home time.

Fabulous nursery, couldn’t thank the staff enough for everything they do for the children. Always very welcoming. The new app is absolutely brilliant to be kept up to date throughout the nursery day. Thank you, Twist Lane staff!

Ten out of ten, I would recommend to anybody! My eldest child attended too so there was no question about my youngest attending. They do a fantastic job and are amazing at keeping me updated on the family app. All the staff are amazing with my daughter and she loves them all.

My eldest attended this nursery 11 years ago for 3 years and my youngest daughter who is 1 goes now. Still lovely staff, cosy home environment, clean and outdoor area is fab! Love it and know my little one will thrive here till she leaves in 2025.

From the first time I stepped foot in Twist Lane nursery, I knew my little girl would love it there. The outdoor learning activities are right up her street. She has been there since she has been 2 and loves all the staff. Nothing is too much trouble for the girls, they are fabulous. When she had Dietary
Requirements the chief made all the food she needed and the girls helped her still feel part of the group.

Both my children have attended this nursery, with my youngest still being there. All the staff at Twist Lane have gone above and beyond for our family so many times and I can’t say thank you enough to them, especially with my eldest who needs constant attention and monitoring. I’m never in doubt of
how well my children are cared for when they are there and both of them absolutely loved/love this nursery and the staff. They are all such wonderful girls.

I absolutely love this nursery, the staff are amazing. They make sure your child is happy and feels at home. All your child's progress is shared on the app, so you can see what activities they have been doing throughout the day. The staff genuinely care about your child's health and progress. I can't
praise them enough.

My daughter has built strong relationships with both the staff and the other children. The staff have shown constant interaction and care, which has encouraged my child to become independent and content. She enjoys attending nursery as it’s a welcoming and nurturing environment for her to grow and develop
her skills and personality.

Excellent nursery with the most amazing and caring staff. My son feels so comfortable around them all and treats them like he would family which is all a parent can ask for. There is never a day that goes by he doesn’t come home from nursery telling me his stories of all the fun and activities they’ve
been doing. He’s always happy and content when I pick him up and sometimes doesn’t want to leave because he loves it there so much. Staff are excellent in communicating between themselves and my son and between themselves and me and his dad. They are always keeping us up to date via the app and attaching pictures which is nice for us to see him having fun with friends and teachers. Couldn’t ask for a better nursery and our next son, due in May will 100% be attending this nursery as well along with any future children. I have witnessed the bond between the staff and children and how comfortable and at ease they make our son feel which puts our mind at rest while we are at work.

The staff engage all the children in lots of different activities. The daily reports on the children at nursery on the dedicated website are absolutely great. We get to see what the children have been doing on the day or days they attended. The children are well fed with a varied menu. They have done
a wonderful job, especially during the last couple of years due to covid.
Can't praise all the staff enough.

We have always been very happy with the care our son has been given when in their care. He has learnt a lot and really excelled in the last 4 years that he has been there. They have always been great at communicating with us and keeping us up to date with milestones etc. Our son has always built great
relationships with his keyworkers and transitioning to different rooms as he's got older, has seemed so easy for him, with the help of the staff. Amazing nursery and fantastic staff. Can't fault them at all.

My two-year-old daughter goes to Twist Lane Nursery and loves it and I would like to say they are the best. All my children have gone. They do an amazing job and the activities they set are great. Especially the one they did the other day, my daughter loved Spa day. Nursery staff set up a room with
treats and lotions and little bowls with water and soap in to put their little feet in to do massages, promote relaxation and pamper them. The staff are all friendly and always happy to help with anything.

My son has been going to Twist Lane nursery for 1 year and 4 months now and he absolutely loved it since the beginning. All staff are very kind, loving, creative and caring individuals. I trust them a lot and consider us being very lucky that we chose that nursery. All the girls love their job there,
they help the kids a lot with their development and also always think of fun activities and help them create such cool memories. I highly recommend the Twist Lane nursery.

What a fantastic nursery Twist Lane nursery is. My son went to this nursery from being 2 years old and now my daughter comes to this nursery and is still there. They are so helpful if you have any enquiries and as well as being there for my two children, they have also been there for me too. Best nursery
in the area.

My son has attended Twist Lane since being 9 months old. I cannot fault any of the staff, their communication with us as a family has always been excellent and they are a big part of our son's life. Would highly recommend it to others.

My son has attended this nursery for just under a year now and the way he has thrived has been amazing. He is much more advanced than some of his peers and I feel this nursery has been the perfect place to let my child grow to his full potential. The staff are wonderful and go above and beyond.

Absolutely amazing nursery! Wouldn't send my children anywhere else, the staff are absolutely lovely and are always there for support. My little girl attended this nursery before she left for preschool and now my little boy attends and they both absolutely love it.

I would highly recommend this nursery, the staff are wonderful. The nursery gives off such a homely atmosphere and was always made to feel confident and comfortable leaving my child at nursery. The staff made my child happy and comfortable even through transitioning to their sister nursery during the
start of lockdown, which was a very hard process as they had just gotten used to a routine of going to nursery. The staff were always there to support and help; even a call away if needed. There was never an issue if days had to be changed for nursery due to work. My child came on leaps and bounds in such a short amount of time, even under the circumstances. One lady who works in the preschool, made a lasting impact as she’s still always remembered by little things she learnt my child. I would recommend Twist Lane nursery over and over to and parents who are unsure of which nursery to choose.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.152)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.152) out of 10 for Twist Lane Day Nursery is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Twist Lane Day Nursery is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.152 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Twist Lane Day Nursery is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 33 number of registered child places is 6.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.6 = 0.152

  • 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.
