  • Buttercups at Chiswick, London
Buttercups Chiswick is conveniently located next to Gunnersbury Park tube station and is situated in a 4-storey Edwardian townhouse where each age group has their own dedicated room. The preschool children enjoy the whole top floor with Montessori classrooms. As well as the small but well-stocked garden, older children get to enjoy the mini forest at the nearby sister nursery in Chiswick Lane.

At Buttercups, they believe that a well-cared for team results in well-cared for children. They are committed to making sure staff feel supported, rewarded and challenged and continually develop the skills and qualifications of the team through in-house training programmes and external courses.

The nursery adopts a range of teaching approaches, including Montessori which emphasises children's ability to learn through play and make their own decisions, promoting their independence and confidence as they begin their learning journey. They also encourage children to spend as much time outside as possible, integrating plenty of opportunities for outside play and encouraging a love for nature.

The team look forward to welcoming you to their nursery.

Wonderful staff. Very welcoming, helpful, and the children have a great time and learn a lot. When we leave our children for a full day, we hope that the child is happy and learns a lot, and we really appreciate the regular daily email, detailing what has been learnt, and also their flexibility, as
needed.

Having just completed settling with my one-year-old daughter, I cannot recommend Buttercups enough. Every member of staff has been absolutely wonderful to ensure a gentle transition for my little one, going at her pace, to ensure success. All members of staff have been incredibly informative after every
session, which has been informative and reassuring. It's hugely apparent that they really care about the children in their care, providing a safe space to learn and grow. I can't wait to see my daughter flourish at Buttercups and want to thank everyone for such a positive experience so far.

Buttercups at Chiswick is an extraordinary nursery. The staff are outstanding. They are very professional and love the kids to bits. Their structure, activities and meal programme is brilliant and both of my kids have loved every minute of it.

Both my son and daughter attended Buttercups. Sending them there was by far one of the better decisions I've made as a parent. Every day I drop my kids off, knowing that they will be in great hands. The staff are warm and well qualified. The food is fresh and healthy and the training curriculum is engaging
and fun for the kids. I highly recommend Buttercups to anyone considering them!

The best nursery we could ever hope for. The caring team that really loves our daughter. One room leader, in particular, is the best and another member of staff is the best key person my daughter could ever hope for. Buttercups Grange Road would also not be what it is today without another member of
the team in particular. Thank you!

My son has been at Buttercups for 18 months and I’ve already enrolled my newborn for when I return to work. The staff are so caring and kind, always have time if you have any worries or concerns and my son has thrived in their care. He loves going and always talks about what he gets up to, the teachers
by name and surprises us constantly with what he’s learned. We feel so reassured and confident leaving him in their care each day. Thank you!

My son has attended Buttercups for 6/7 months now and I’m so glad I chose Buttercups Chiswick for him. I was a bit anxious when it came to leaving him but a member of staff did nothing but reassure me and update me regularly to ensure I felt comfortable.
My son now runs through the doors at nursery
and has really good relationships with all of his teachers not just his key worker. In the last 6 months, his development has also done soo well, his confidence has also Improved.
Thank you all for providing my son with a safe, warm and happy environment.

Our daughter has been here for over 18-months now and she loves it. She has developed so much since joining, and there has been very clear and marked progression as she has moved up through each of the classes.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Due to the unsettling situation during the last year and a half, my daughter has moved to four nurseries, Buttercups being the last one. Since she started there she has settled really well and quickly, she made so many friends and she learned so much it's incredible how she flourished. She has the space
and support to become a great version of herself.Her teacher has always been aware and on top of things, has great communication with us and genuinely cared for my daughter. Everyone in the nursery is caring and nurturing to my daughter. We had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend Buttercups Nursery. Thank you very much.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our little boy joined Buttercups at Chiswick last September, just before we went into the second wave of lockdowns. To say it's been a turbulent time for the world would be the understatement of my lifetime, but the consistency and quality of care that he has experienced has seen him flourish from a
shy little two-year-old into a kind, (mostly) calm, curious and precocious nearly 4-year-old who seems to charm everyone he meets and who meets every hiccup or surprise in life with confidence. We are so grateful to the staff for looking after us all so well during this time. His learning is phenomenal - I'm not sure what he'll do in reception, he seems to have mostly got the hang of those final early years foundation stages already! I think they have instilled confidence, creativity, kindness and perseverance that will stand in him good stead for life, and I only wish we'd brought our older child to Buttercups so that she could benefit also. Thank you - we will miss you!

Our family's experience with Buttercups at Chiswick has been one hundred percent positive. Our daughter goes in each day with a big smile on her face and it is reassuring to know that she is in such good hands, with staff that genuinely care for her. As parents, we are grateful for all the regular updates
we receive on her activities and progress.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.896)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.896) out of 10 for Buttercups at Chiswick 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 12 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 4.896 for Buttercups at Chiswick is calculated as follows: ( (129 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.896
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Buttercups at Chiswick is based on 12 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4, which has been reached with 12 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
