  • Buttercups at Teddington, Teddington
Welcome to Buttercups Teddington. This, their newest nursery is conveniently positioned on Teddington High Street and provides a cosy, home-from-home environment. It incorporates Wizard House, the new home for preschoolers, a fabulous self-contained Montessori hall, on the same site.

Buttercups Teddington has a Buttercups-themed Soft Play Room for the children to build their motor skills in a fun and safe environment. The Dance Studio is a fabulous space to get moving, with music and multi-coloured lighting whilst the Art Room is filled with materials to encourage creativity. There is also a large garden packed with toys and natural resources to explore.

In Wizard house, an authentic Montessori education is provided for preschoolers, that nurtures natural curiosity, independence, and love for learning. This dedicated Montessori hall has been specifically designed to meet the needs of their young wizards, with everything at their height, separate areas for different activities and flooded with natural light.

Qualified Montessori Teachers use focused Montessori sessions enabling children to be independent, confident and curious learners.

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. The team adopt a variety of teaching approaches including Montessori and HighScope and they incorporate as much time as possible to engage with nature and the great outdoors.

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.

If you'd like to see the nursery for yourself, please get in touch to arrange a tour.

My child has been so happy since joining the nursery.
She is always excited about going to nursery and telling me how kind and lovely the teachers are. I have never doubted that she is being cared and looked after well.
I appreciate the teachers' kindness and caring minds.

I am pleased with the overall care and standards experienced by my daughter and as a parent, during the time at the nursery.
The nursery has taken a keen interest in the development of all the children which has provided a very good learning environment for all the children.

Our daughter has been at the nursery for 3 years and we are very happy with it. She looks forward to going and always had lots to talk about at the end of the day.
The nursery feels homely and the staff are very good and caring. Our daughter enjoys the variety of activities they do each day. I would
recommend this nursery.

My daughter has been at Buttercups for the last year and loves it. The staff are fantastic, the environment is great and she can't wait to get through the door each morning. From her Spanish lessons to learning about the solar system, Buttercups have made learning fun for her, which I am delighted about.
I can not speak highly enough about this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter started at Buttercups a few months ago. She is very happy there and to date, I have been delighted with pretty much every aspect of the nursery.
The size of the nursery means getting to know the staff and other parents/babies/children is much easier than at larger nurseries. The garden
is lovely and they make a real effort to get all the children outside every day. The staff are wonderful and genuinely seem to care.

Review from Maeve M (Mother of Child) published on 15 June 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our two young sons attended Buttercups day nursery in Teddington for 2 years. During that time the staff were always loving and caring towards them. They did many different activities on a daily basis and generally were very happy, settled and content both with staff and other children.
The garden
was an excellent space and well equipped with toys and for our eldest they helped him to read and encourage him to 'enjoy' learning, leaving him very ready to enjoy reception.


I trusted them completely with my children and would certainly recommend the nursery to other parents.

My child attends nursery 4 sessions a week and absolutely loves it. He throws himself into his carer's arms every morning and is happy and content when we pick him up. Each day there is a new activity for the children to explore and enjoy. The nursery recently hired a new manager, and I personally think
it's for the better. Communication is excellent now, and they are very responsive to input.

My little one started at the nursery from only a few months old and she enjoys every day at the nursery. She surprises me every day with something new learned from the nursery, like new words, new games, new songs. They got really nice and caring staff.

Fantastic nursery with a warm welcoming and homely feel and a fun garden space. My daughter goes in happily every day and loves her time at nursery. She's doing very well with her colouring and pencil control as they are now working on letter formation. She looks forward to Spanish club every week -
a great club.

Review from Emma (Mother of Child) published on 15 February 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my daughters have attended the nursery, the eldest now having left to go to school. They settled very quickly and easily, always looked forward to 'nursery days' and came home with new creations daily, be that pictures, art work, baked goods or new songs they have learnt! My youngest adores the
garden and the activities they do in it as well as the free play time when she loves running around. She describes her nursery friends as 'best friends' and looks forward to going in to see them! We have decided to keep my youngest daughter there rather than moving her to a school 'pre-school setting' because she is so settled and progressing very well. I wouldn't have any hesitation in recommending them.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.987)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.987) out of 10 for Buttercups at Teddington is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.987 for Buttercups at Teddington is calculated as follows: ( (308 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 312 Ratings = 4.987
  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 Teddington is based on 26 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 65 number of registered child places is 13, which has been reached with 26 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.
