Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We're so happy with our experience at Day nursery .The staff are warm, caring, and really take the time to get to know each child. Our son has grown so much in confidence and loves going every day-he's always excited to tell us about the fun activities and new things he's learned.


The environment

is safe, friendly, and full of opportunities to play and explore. We feel lucky to be part of such a supportive and welcoming community!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending Twinnie day nursery since she was 3 years old and I can only praise the staff.
They have many activities happening for the children (such as dance and drama lessons and had futebol previously) as well as activities for them to see the firefighters and exotic animals.
My daughter loves her teachers and all her little friends and also is a fan of their food (cooked by the chef who apparently does delicious foods according to my little one), their menu is varied and full of healthy choices.
The nursery keeps parents informed about the children's progress with routine academic reviews and will also provide information on how to support the children in their learning at home.
So far it has been a great experience with this nursery. Staff is lovely and kind as well.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Twinnie day nursery since he was 15 months old. I want to give a special mention to the manager and the entire team who have taken such great care of him. Over the years, we've seen tremendous improvement in his development.


The staff are very communicative and always keep

us updated through the app. Whenever we send a message, we receive a prompt response. They also offer extra classes that my son absolutely loves, including activities like football, drama, and dance.


It's truly a wonderful daycare that supports children's growth and development. I highly recommend it. Once again, a heartfelt thank you to all the teachers and the management team for taking such good care of my son.

Twinnie Nursery is absolutely amazing! Both my girls went there and now my twin boys are there. The staff is so friendly, the babies are always happy! I have never picked up any of my children with either dirty clothes/dirty nappies/nappy rashes etc, something which a lot of my friends complain of at
their respective nurseries! Very clean and the kids are exposed to so much stuff that you would ordinarily not be able to do at home ie messy play! I would highly recommend this nursery!

My child has been in the nursery since Jan 2024, He does struggle with his speech but has slowly been coming along whilst being at nursery, the staff are all very friendly my so. Always leaves happy.


I think more detailed reports more regularly would be great to have more understanding of our children's

development more often.


The manager is always really helpful and the staff are always really caring towards the children.

Review from E N (Mother of Child) published on 28 December 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
Overall, the staff and management are professional and helpful. Activities (drawing and painting) are regularly organised.
We provide here are some areas for improvement:
1- the indoor and outdoor spaces are a bit small for the number of kids attending the nursery. The nursery feels overcrowded on
certain days.
2- the pushchair storage room is too small, roughly 3m2 to store more than ten buggies.
3- more importantly, for a few months, the entrance door of the nursery does not lock well.
We would be grateful if this can be fixed at the earliest convenience. We acknowledge that there are intermediary doors before being with the kids; however, the overall security will be improved with a functional entrance door.

I would 100% recommend this nursery. All the staff here are friendly, compassionate and you can clearly see that they have a true passion for looking after children. They go above and beyond. My child has attended this nursery since April 2022 and I am so grateful for the staff's support in helping
my daughter achieve the best of her ability, improving my child’s confidence, social and verbal skills. They also post daily photos/news posts on their Nursery app, which kept me updated with my child’s activities through the day.
Thank you for all your help!
We will miss you all.

Twinnie Day Nursery has literally been my son’s second home. Every individual staff member goes above and beyond to ensure my child is at his happiest. The care and love they show to all children is amazing and I cannot fault them one bit.
My son has learnt so much from everyone and being in an environment

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.689)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.689) out of 10 for Twinnie Day Nursery (Belvedere) is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 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 4.689 for Twinnie Day Nursery (Belvedere) is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 164 Ratings = 4.689
  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 Twinnie Day Nursery (Belvedere) 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 53 number of registered child places is 10.6, which has been reached with 13 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.
