  • Victoria Place Day Nursery and After School Club, Twickenham
Victoria Place is an independent nursery, providing a safe and warm home-from-home environment where children are supported in their wellbeing, learning and development. As a small intimate setting, all staff get to know the individual children and build strong bonds with them and their families from the start.

The highly qualified staff provide a safe, happy, caring, secure and stimulating environment for your child.

Victoria Place is set in the heart of Twickenham, close to the river on historic Church Street and very close to Twickenham Station as well as many main bus routes which serve the surrounding areas of Richmond, Twickenham, Teddington, Kew and Kingston.

The setting makes use of the beautiful surroundings by organising regular visits to the local park and green spaces as well as arranging outdoor workshops including activities like growing vegetables, the great outdoors, making bird boxes and exploring minibeasts in their very own private garden.

Our son has been at Windsor Kindergarten for 3 months now and in that time we have seen a dramatic improvement in his development. The team at Windsor Kindergarten are great, everyone knows our son well and he gets on with all of them very well.
There is a varied and balanced menu each week, and although
we don't have any dietary restrictions I am confident these would be accommodated if we did.
I couldn't recommend Windsor Kindergarten more, and I am thrilled with the service and care they offer.

I cannot speak highly enough about Windsor Kindergarten. Right from the home visit, we were welcomed with open arms by the warm and caring staff. Their dedication to providing a fun and nurturing environment is truly commendable.
The facilities at the nursery are great. From the engaging classroom
to the outdoor play area, it's evident that a lot of thought and effort has gone into creating a space where children can thrive.
But what truly sets this nursery apart is the staff. Their passion for early childhood education shines through in everything they do. They go above and beyond to ensure that each child feels valued and supported as they embark on their learning journey.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery, and that speaks volumes. Every morning, he eagerly bounds through the doors, excited for another day of fun and learning. It's heartwarming to see him develop new skills and confidence under the guidance of such dedicated professionals.

Reply from MRS PAWLAK, Manager at Victoria Place Day Nursery and After School Club

Thank you for such a heart warming review. We truly love what we do at Windsor Kindergarten, no two days are the same.

My son has attended Windsor Kindergarten from the age of two. He is happy and looking forward to every day in the nursery and I have been very impressed with the care and the overall experience with the centre. The staff/carers are very well prepared and they open the doors every day with a smile, welcoming
the children with joy. My son has learnt and progressed incredibly in this nursery, there has been constant feedback and support from the staff. The food is warm and healthy and the nursery is clean with a great outdoor patio where my son plays and develops his motor skills with other children. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough, we were very lucky to have found such a devoted staff to care for our son.

Lovely nursery which has a warm, inviting and cosy environment for the children. The staff are wonderful, receptive and interested in not only your child’s development but also listening to any concerns you have as a parent.
My son enjoys his time at nursery and always comes home happy and full of
stories. It is wonderful to see him grow and develop.
Thank you!

My daughter started at Windsor Kindergarten at the beginning of this year. She’s the youngest one for now at the setting and it is absolutely amazing watching how quickly she settled in. All the team are amazing, we are getting updates on what they’ve been doing and is brilliant to see all the activities
and the adventures they’re doing on their outings. My daughter has learned a lot in a very short time. We love this place and we recommend this nursery 100%

We sent our daughter to Windsor Kindergarden a couple of years ago and have watched her flourish since. We recently sent her younger sibling too. They love the outdoor activities, group singing and cake making in particular. The teachers have built a very strong bond with our children and they look
forward to every nursery day.
The environment is very caring and personalised in contrast with other settings where you can feel it is all more like a business

We have been so thrilled to have found a kindergarten that provides such excellent genuine care with a nature-focused curriculum. Our daughter has blossomed at Windsor Kindergarten over the year she has been there and we are so grateful for all the staff and the wide range of activities that they provide.
It has been such a comfort to find a home away from home for our daughter.

We are very happy to have found Windsor Kindergarten for our daughter. She’s strived in all aspects of her development within months of starting. She’s now moved on to the older group and her transition has been made so easy by the staff that we didn’t notice any change at all. The nursery is always
keeping parents up to date and responds well to any enquiry. Our daughter loves going to nursery so much that we’ve increased her days of attendance and her little brother will most definitely be attending once he’s old enough.

We are absolutely delighted with the nursery and especially the staff looking after our child. We have watched him grow significantly in the time he has been at Windsor Kindergarten. The carers really understand and adapt their play, instructions, and care to get the best from him. The structured activities
are excellent with lots of time outside and on visits locally which is brilliant. We have regular feedback and good communication from the management team too. Highly recommend this nursery especially if your children like the outdoors, exploring, building, and learning through play.

I absolutely love this nursery! Staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, approachable, and accommodating. My daughter is autistic and the nursery has been unbelievably supportive. The staff is well educated and kind. The communication is excellent and swift. My daughter has flourished and is treated
with respect, she is being included in all activities and is getting extra support and funding due to staff being on the ball and open-minded. I definitely recommend Windsor Kindergarten!

I knew nothing about this nursery prior to visiting it 1 year ago. My daughter has complex needs, physically very limited, she has difficulty feeding and wears a hearing aid and cochlear implant and is non verbal so I was extremely concerned how any setting would manage her needs. I can not say how
much I have been blown away with how all the staff at Windsor Kindergarten have embraced my daughter and included her in everything and really got an understanding of her developmental needs and were able to support professionals and us parents in her development. They have been amazing. I can not recommend them enough. We will miss them greatly.

My son has had a wonderful experience at Windsor Kindergarten for close to 2 years. The facilities are spacious, and the location has access to many parks. The staff are great with outdoor activities and creative play. Learning is a focus as the children develop and the kindergarten is very committed
to communicating on how children are progressing.

My son changed from a nursery that he was used to and liked a lot, it was a worrying time for me, but Windsor Kindergarten welcomed my son so well that from day one he loves going to the nursery, he goes and get back home happy every day, he also in this period it had a spectacular development. I am
immensely grateful for all the love and affection Windsor Kindergarten has given my son. I'm sure that this period he will take as a happy memory of his life.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.950)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.950) out of 10 for Victoria Place Day Nursery and After School Club 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 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 5 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 4.950 for Victoria Place Day Nursery and After School Club is calculated as follows: ( (57 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.95

  • 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 4 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Victoria Place Day Nursery and After School Club is based on 5 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 = 3.5

    • 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 50 number of registered child places is 10. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 10 = 0.5

  • 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.
