About this price
How funding is applied, how the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- Working parents of children aged 9 months to 2 years can usually claim up to 30 funded hours a week. The working-parent hours depend on each parent meeting the minimum earnings rules and earning under £100,000 a year. This nursery stretches funded hours across 51 weeks of the year. You've selected 30 funded hours.
- This nursery applies up to 10 funded hours per day, stretched across 51 weeks of the year. With your selected funding, 22.4 hours are covered each week. Hours beyond this, including the early and late parts of the day, are charged at the standard rate.
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

An amazing nursery/Preschool. Both my daughters have such a good time here and they learn so much from the lovely staff and the other children around them. Even when my eldest comes with me to pick up her sister from the Baby room, lots of the ladies there remember her and take a minute to make her feel special: the fact she still knows and adores them all too speaks volumes. Can't fault them at all!

The staff are extremely helpful and both my children absolutely love and adore them. My son has recently been diagnosed as autistic and the nursery and staff are so supportive of not just him but me as well.
Exemplary nursery, every single member of staff are joy to be around. My child enjoys every minute of Twizzle Tops South Woodham. My child has allergies and they are incredible with making sure they have the correct procedures in place and a variety of foods they can enjoy rather than being second...
My daughter's key worker is a kind, caring individual who puts the needs of the children above all else as well as being so fun and making sure nursery is a wonderful place to be.
I am beyond happy with the care my child receives - safeguarding is excellent, extra activities, updates and involving the families are fabulous, varied food, time on the farm, friendly and incredible staff. I could talk all day about how much I recommend this nursery.
My little girl loves going here and never looks back at the door. The staff are a delight and make me feel so at ease leaving her. She seems to eat really well here too and we love the events the nursery put on for families too.

Our son loves Twizzle Tops Nursery and so do we. The children are either playing outside on the farm in their wellies or doing arts and crafts inside or dancing with the entertainment. Every day the staff make it so fun and enjoyable for our son. The best decision I ever made moving my son to this...
The staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. I am always asking for tips on how to help our son sleep better or asking questions on development and they always make time to help.

They have all found things that he enjoys and made him feel so welcome. He has turned a corner and is joining in activities and settles quicker than when he first started. I can't thank you ladies enough for everything you do and I look forward to seeing my son develop even further in 2025.

I think the only thing is that on the app there is no way to contact his key worker, we have to contact the nursery and sometimes this isn't possible with our busy schedule.
The staff all seem really friendly and welcoming. The nursery has always been clean and welcoming with lots of activities for the children to do when we have visited.
We can't wait to see how he gets on when he does more days.

Hands down the best experience I could have wished for. There is so much at Twizzle Tops from the amazing staff to the farm trips and their fantastic family fun days. The staff make it for me- when we first joined and I was unsure they were so happy for me to call and check in even sometimes calling me to just give me updates on the progress of the day! They made my little girl so welcome and supported me through all the difficult steps like potty training to weaning off the dummy.
Wow thank you so much for your 5* review. We have absolutely loved looking after your little one and we look forward to creating lots more fun.

My son attended Twizzle Tops this September 2024, as being a first-time mum I was apprehensive and anxious of leaving my child for the first time in the hands of someone else's care. The staff assured me that if there were any concerns regarding my son I will receive a phone call straight away, and sure enough they called immediately if he had a little accident, or if he was too poorly and to be collected. They also reassured me that I could call at any point in the day to see how he was, which put my mind at ease. There was a phase of the app not being updated, however this now seems to be resolved as I love to see what he's been up to throughout the day. I love how they always take the little ones out for some fresh air for the day, activity/playtime. Our son now loves going to nursery, he's developed so much in such a short period of time. The staff have been incredible with putting my mind at ease, and the support, the care they have for the children I will always be thankful.
Thank you so much for you 5* review. Your little one is doing fantastic and we look forward to seeing them flourish with us.

My daughter loves it there as did my older daughter before she went to school. The staff are always so friendly and cheerful and take great care of the kids. There are always pics and details of all the activities they do and the farm location is so great for them to get to play at.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We have loved looking after both of your little ones.
They do so many different activities and arts and crafts and have many family days, which are great.

In my opinion the best nursery there is. After an awful experience where I had to remove my child from a setting with immediate effect due to a safeguarding issue, I had to find a new nursery. I visited Marsh Farm and noticed the nursery. I made contact to enquire for a placement and explained the situation we had just been through. The manager gave me a call and we arranged some settling-in sessions and a start date. We had the sessions and we have never looked back. I cannot thank them enough, they are absolutely amazing people who made my child feel safe, loved, welcome and have taught him so much. The children spend days on the farm being able to use all of the activities there, which is absolutely amazing. I am not local to the nursery but have happily travelled and will do the same in September for my other little boy. Amazing Staff, Amazing Nursery. 5 Star From Me.

A fantastic nursery with wonderful staff. Our son absolutely loves going to nursery every day and it’s because of the amazing team at Twizzle Tops. The communication is great and they always keep us up to date with activities through the app and we can see what he is doing through photos. He always looks like he is having a great time which is wonderful to see. His development has also come on leaps and bounds. The facilities are great with it being on the farm and we love that the children can go out and enjoy the activities and see all the animals which they do regularly. We wouldn’t want him to be anywhere else.
N.B. I only put value for money as satisfactory not because we don’t rate the nursery or think it’s worth the money because I think nursery fees in general are overly expensive and the government need to do more sooner. The fact we get a membership included in the cost is a great bonus however in comparison to other nurseries.
Thank you so much for your amazing review. We absolutely love looking after your little one
Couldn't be happier with how well the girls in the baby room have helped my little boy settle in since September! He holds out his arms to be taken in and comes out beaming. I love the updates on the app too, so nice to know what he's up to and what amazing food he's eating!

My children adore attending Twizzle Tops Marsh Farm. They have varied days, full of fun and are always excited to go and to tell me what they’ve been up to when we pick them up. They are learning so much! Having moved from a London nursery setting, the opportunity to have lots of time in the fresh air and visiting the farm animals is priceless. The staff are all incredible. Patient, caring and always have time to let us know how the children are doing. You can see they love what they do, and love the children they care for, which is so important. Twizzle tops is a real gem!

My son loves to go to nursery and he always has a big smile every time he goes in. He has the fun and the learning a boy of his age should have.
Thank you so much for your 5* review. It has been a pleasure seeing your little one settle and we look forward to seeing them grow throughout the nursery.
My daughter has loved Twizzle Tops at Marsh Farm since her first settling-in session. She is happy, eager and confident to go, we've never had a moment's hesitation. She asks every day "Is it my nursery day?" and gets so excited when it's a "yes". It was really helpful to her to see the same face...
My daughter has loved Twizzle Tops at Marsh Farm since her first settling-in session. She is happy, eager and confident to go, we've never had a moment's hesitation. She asks every day "Is it my nursery day?" and gets so excited when it's a "yes". It was really helpful to her to see the same face every day going in, particularly in the earlier days and the ladies I have met seem very lovely and kind. I love the diary updates on the app and love photos being posted of what my daughter is up to - it makes my day to see her, how happy she is, and the fun she is having. She has learnt so much and comes home every day telling me different new things. She is so much more confident in herself and socially as well. I love that she gets to bring home things she has done, and how proud she is of them, for example, paintings, baking, colouring etc.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so pleased that you are happy with the service that we provide and look forward to supporting your little ones through their time with us.

Hi, my name is Lauren and I work in the Pre-School room at Twizzle Tops. I really enjoy working with the younger preschoolers and teaching them lots of new things.
