Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The team at Bright Horizons have provided exceptional care for my son since he joined earlier this year in the baby room, after we relocated due to work purposes. Whilst I was happy with the quality of care at our previous setting, I quickly realised how the care at BH was far superior in many ways!
All the staff are very friendly and welcoming, and they always make time at the end of the day to talk to me about my son's day. He has settled in really well and made a lot of friends here and I feel at peace that he is surrounded by kind and dedicated people to care for him as he progresses through the different stages at this setting. I can really see how his confidence and social skills have thrived whilst attending BH Twickenham. I also love that they offer plenty & various outdoor opportunities for fun and learning too. Updates and photos via the app are very regular too which is nice to receive whilst I'm at work. Thank you BH team for all the hard work you do!

My son has just left bright horizons after being there for 2 fantastic years. Michelle and Natalia are incredibly professional and all the staff there have been amazing. Great out door area for busy bees. I would recommend this nursery as we had a fantastic experience with Meadeay.

I am so happy with the care my two children (ages 4 and 2) receive at this wonderful day nursery and pre-school. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed into a warm, friendly atmosphere that immediately put my mind at ease. The staff are incredibly caring and dedicated, creating a nurturing environment
where learning and fun are seamlessly integrated. The outdoor space is fantastic-plenty of room for the children to play, explore, and burn off energy in a safe setting. The long hours, from 7:30 AM to 6:30 PM, are extremely convenient for our family, and it's reassuring to know my children are in such capable hands. I also appreciate the continuity of staff (my child first start coming here in 2021), as it fosters stability and familiarity for the children.


I feel confident that my little ones are safe, well looked after, and thriving here-thank you to the team for all their hard work!

Absolutely fantastic nursery. My son has severe allergies and I was anxious about sending him to nursery. He's been at Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway since August 2024 and I couldn't be happier with the care he receives there. The staff are professional and caring, and my son is very happy there.
Most importantly, the nursery caters for my son's allergies and takes great care to ensure he is kept safe.

I cannot be more happy with this nursery. I have had my two children there since they were 10 months old each and one of them is in preschool now. The nursery is well-led and it's a place where children come first. Staffing levels are always at a good level and senior staff are very experienced. Their
focus on activity, challenge and inclusion is brilliant and both of my children love being there. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a nursery with lots of flexibility, especially for parents who work shifts.

We absolutely love this nursery. It is a purpose-built building so it is beautifully light with lovely, spacious rooms which are colourful with loads of different activities and toys and plenty of outdoor space. The staff are such a highlight, they are all so lovely. We are so pleased we moved our 14-month-old
son here from another nearby nursery and he is visibly so much happier being dropped off here. We love that you can drop the children and pick them up again right in their room so you can see what's going on, this wasn't the case at our last nursery. Couldn't recommend more highly!

It’s such a great nursery - the nursery staff are always going the extra mile! We’re so happy to see the development of our son going to Bright Horizons Meadway. The staff are very friendly and attentive, providing daily updates on progress and activities. The grounds are locked so we feel that safeguarding
is guaranteed. The nursery has a wonderful garden with lots of activities and the children are encouraged to make the most of the outdoor space. Once a year, the children can watch little chicks hatch from their eggs, and children can enjoy planting vegetable seeds and see them grow into full vegetables. Our son has made many friends in this nursery, and we know that he loves going in the morning and spending time with friends and being entertained by numerous activities with his lovely carers.

Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway is a brilliant nursery that my son absolutely loves! Staff are very helpful, friendly and understanding towards our needs/feedback and always have a smile on their faces! My son has really warmed to the staff and has so much fun that he doesn't want to leave at the
end of the day! The facilities are great and I'm happy to see all the varied activities the children do on a daily basis on the nursery app. The app is also a great way of keeping up to date with what my son is doing throughout the day in real time. The nursery provides a high standard of childcare and the experienced staff that are there are amazing! It has been lovely to see my son's development during his time there. The parent events put on by the nursery are also great and a good way to meet other parents.

We visited many nurseries before we made our choice. This nursery is just right, striking the right balance. Our daughter hit the ground running with her key person and the team is friendly and caring. We're yet to see our daughter come home unfulfilled. Continuous feedback allows us to focus on specific
areas of development and the same works in reverse. The team is eager to know our daughter's breakthroughs and are keen to develop them further.

Our daughter has been attending Bright Horizons Twickenham Day Nursery since she was 15 months old and she will be leaving in the summer to start school. My husband and I are both very pleased with the care from the staff she receives. I am impressed with the activities (water/sand play, building blocks,
crafting/painting, observation of eggs hatching...) and topics (different holidays, planets, health and safety, recycling, phonics, measuring ..) that are prepared for the children. I love the stimuli she receives as I feel it opens her mind and starts playfully preparing her for school starting in the fall (I love you 20 kilometres long #measuring). We both look forward to seeing what she did in the day, which we can follow on the parent platform.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.705)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.705) 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.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.922 for Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool is calculated as follows: ( (142 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 154 Ratings = 4.922
  2. 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 4.783 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bright Horizons Twickenham Meadway Day Nursery and Preschool is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 16.6 = 0.783
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
