As with all Buttercups nurseries, the team encourage children to learn through play. This allows them to be led by their natural curiosity, promoting development, confidence and independence.

Buttercups develop the skills and qualifications of the team through extensive in-house training programmes and external courses, allowing them to be the best they can be for all children.

My daughter has developed massively since attending Buttercups. The range of activities they put on for the children is excellent, plus they go into the garden every day. The addition of the soft play is an added bonus.
The staff are attentive, friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. Plus it helps
that it is consistent staff. I am pleased we chose Buttercups for our child and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

I couldn't be happier with Buttercups at Teddington. The staff are so caring, not just towards my son but the whole family. The facilities are great, the activities are so creative, for my son this is home away from home. He's always really happy to go to nursery in the morning and is beaming in the
evening having always had a great day. I'm delighted we got a place here and so grateful they've been so super careful almost my son's allergy. Couldn't recommend them more highly.

We could not recommend Buttercups at Teddington any more. Our daughter absolutely loves going and adores her teachers! We know she is in the best care each time we drop her off. We are excited every day to see what she has learnt and can't wait to see her develop and more!
Thank you so much for everything.

Buttercups at Teddington has staff that have true love, kindness and energy for the children. They have treated us and our son with such respect and welcomed us into the school at such short notice - we are so grateful. We feel that my son is really excelling. 4 staff members in particular get mentioned
everyday in our house. He is really happy there. It is safe and clean and is really stimulating his learning journey. Thank you.

We have been consistently happy with Teddington Buttercups since our son, now 3, started there 18 months ago. Staff are all always kind, patient, gentle and interested in whatever the kids are into. They have always gone at our son's pace, settling him into the nursery overall and then at each room
change slowly and allowing him to feel safe and secure. When he was unwilling to engage in messy play they found ways to control the amount of mess to allow him to feel comfortable with it, before increasing it so now he enjoys it with the other kids. The additional events are always well done and much appreciated - I'm looking forward to the Mother's Day tea party! Overall we've been delighted that our son is so happy and speaks so well of his friends and staff at Buttercups.

Both our girls have been through Buttercups (the youngest is still going!) and we can honestly say that the nursery, its facilities and of course, its incredible staff have given our girls the best start in life we could have wished for. So much attention, love, involvement and fun - we have nothing
but gratitude for the entire Buttercups team and we're so happy that we chose them as the place to start both of our daughters' journeys of learning and discovery!

Our son has been at Buttercups for four months now and we're super happy with our choice of nursery. He settled really easily which was a relief, and smiles every morning when we arrive. The staff are all so warm and caring. Also love that the learning opportunities include events from other cultures
like Lunar New Year most recently.

Exceptional team, they truly understand the nuances and personality of every child in their care. My daughter couldn’t be more excited to go to nursery every day, which is a huge relief and makes mornings less stressful.
The weekly meal planning by the onsite chef is a huge bonus, rather than having
a set plan 6 months out.
Their social event calendar fosters great relationships amongst the parents and staff.

Excellent, happy, friendly nursery. The whole team care for the children beautifully and help them develop and grow. They teach the children how to solve their own problems and resolve conflicts with their peers. They give them opportunities to try all sorts of new things. I like how they celebrate
lots of cultures and teach the children about the world. Lovely garden with room to run. Lots of variety in the food. My daughters tell me the food is delicious!

I absolutely love the entire team at Buttercups at Teddington branch. Their wonderful, gentle approach to each individual child is outstanding. The care and love they pour into the children doesn’t go unnoticed and really makes a difference. What’s special is that they truly listen to feedback and want
to improve the experience for every child and parent. I would not want my children to be in any other nursery.

My son has been at Buttercups at Teddington for two years. He loves it and asks to go on the weekends! As well as fun and homely, he learns a lot and has endless fun in the garden, his favourite part of every day. The staff are warm and kind with the children and the nursery includes parents with events.
We have been very happy here and I now have no worries for my baby starting, as I know he will have a great experience too. The external sports coach and French lessons are also excellent and well enjoyed!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Amazing nursery. I was so anxious before my daughter started, especially as she was starting a few months later than I imagine many children start (she was 16 months) and she can be very clingy with me.
Buttercups were brilliant, Within a month she was happy.
Five months on and I couldn't be happier.
The food is nutritious, and the staff are kind, fun and patient with the children. My daughter has learnt songs that they sing to do things like getting her nappy changed, she sings songs they sing for activities at home, and she tells me the names of the other children and calls them her friends.
I was worried about her nap but she sleeps just as well there as she does at home. The environment is fun without being overstimulating and the activities are well thought out for each age group. Even with all those pluses, for me, it's the staff that makes it outstanding, they are all such wonderful caring people who are passionate about what they do.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.986)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.986) out of 10 for Buttercups at Teddington 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 30 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 30 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 4.986 for Buttercups at Teddington is calculated as follows: ( (354 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 359 Ratings = 4.986

  • 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 Buttercups at Teddington is based on 30 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 30 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.
