They smile and well come us
The nursery is clean the kitchen is clean
The food is so delicious
My baby is allergic to cows milk so they take care of my baby and feed him with care
My baby he don't speak they teach him few words so when he comes back home he always say new words
My baby wakes
up in midnight telling me I want to go to nursery! He always say his teacher names
When I bring him back from the nursery he sleeps on the way to home once he wakes up he say more nursery more nursery he screams he wants to go to nursery
And my baby attached to me too much I breastfeeding him two years and one month he sleeps in between my arms in my bed so the nursery, they are patient and they let him love them which makes me happy
And the most important thing is they clean his nose better than other nursery they leave kids nose dirty
Finally thank you for everything I highly recommended this nursery

Special review for one member of staff in particular in the baby room. Has helped make my daughters adaption to nursery setting very smooth. This member of staff has always been my daughters go to staff member and she has also helped my daughter slowly warm to the other staff members too. Thank you.
For
two members of staff in particular in the toddler room, they continue to help develop my son everyday and even on trying days, they are always on hand with advice and guidance to help my son overcome his learning to control his emotions and actions.
Thank you too all.

Nursery staff are always nice, friendly and helpful. They have gotten to know our child really well and seem to genuinely care for their well being. It is always nice to hear from them about their day at pick-up time, and what new activities they did with the children.

Baby started since he was one and he is turning three this summer.
He has developed so well and feedback from his 2 year review was very positive. Wide range of activities to encourage early learning of numeracy and literacy.

My son absolutely loves this nursery. The staff is amazing here - they have been brilliant with supporting us during toilet training. They have always put in extra efforts to keep the children happy and engaged. My son learns new things every day and comes back home happy - what more do I need! Having
the ability to track his day via app is also an asset. Besides, the food is freshly cooked, is nutritious and balanced. Kudos to the staff and keep doing the good work.

Amazing staff, both my kids have attended this nursery. The youngest as early as 8/9 months. They have been amazing from day one. They’ve guided me through parenting both kids and putting me to the right people to speak to when problems arise. These ladies are phenomenal. They have my 100% trust. I'm
already dreading when my son has to leave.

The staff at west Twyford nursery do an impeccable job. My daughter has been attending the nursery for 6 months now and I can see the dedication, care and how it’s made a fun environment for the kids and also how comfortable my daughter has become with the staff which makes me feel at ease. Also, the
app is a great asset with being able to see how she is doing at nursery throughout the day and pictures always bring a smile. Honestly, I can’t thank the staff enough as a happy mother who was very anxious in the beginning but is now completely at ease!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.861)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.861) out of 10 for Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - West Twyford is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.861 for Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - West Twyford is calculated as follows: ( (157 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 Hungry Caterpillar Day Nursery - West Twyford is based on 15 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 40 number of registered child places is 8, which has been reached with 15 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.
