Pivotal found me the perfect tutor for my 9 years old autistic son. The past year has been very difficult with all the challenges that the pandemic brought. As parents we were concerned that his homeschooling had been insufficient, especially once I returned to work and was teaching online, from home. There was also negative impact on his learning due to inconsistencies at school. His tutor is very experienced, warm and personable. She was able to build a relationship very quickly and reignite his passion for learning. Pivotal we’re able to advise me on which tutor would be best for my son and I have not regretted trusting their advice. I would certainly recommend Pivotal Home Tutoring.

Our daughter Alex started nursery one month ago on 1 March when she had just turned 1 year. She was very emotional on her first couple of sessions, however the staff were very professional, kind, helpful and supportive. Honestly I cannot praise them enough! Alex’s English language is not her mother tongue and she struggled a little bit by not understanding anyone. So apart from all these new faces, new environment, the language everyone had been speaking was unfamiliar as well. Her key worker put some baby songs on tablet for her in her native language which immediately had a positive impact on her and consoled her. They have also been doing the utmost to adhere to her fully plant based and refined sugar free diet. At last but definitely not least Alex has been given great support with her potty training. As she has been potty trained since 7 months old we thought it would be helpful if the nursery staff could support her with this as well. Alex as well as we as parents put a lot of effort in potty training and we felt that if we are not supported from nursery all our efforts as well as Alex’s achievements will be in vain. So when we firstly met with Pauline, the nursery manager, and raised this subject she reassured us that this as well was something they could do for us! We felt relieved and very happy! Now one month later Alex is doing amazing with potty. We would like to take this opportunity and once again thank Karen, her key worker, who has been fantastic and very dedicated to continue potty training Alex!! As all parents do, we also wanted the best start for Alex and during our first meeting with Pauline we realised that Twinkles Nursery can provide exactly what we hoped for and what we wanted for our daughter! In the same instant Pauline said “ We do our best to keep baby routine exactly as it is at home and to change as little as possible so she is happy here” I thought that’s it , that’s the place I want my child to spend her days when not at home! I instantly felt relieved and happy that these people will take care of my daughter in the same way I would. I think this is exactly what every parent wants to hear, isn’t it :-). I am pleased to say Alex is very well settled now and is having great time at Twinkles!

We truly appreciate the care and attention to our baby's development that this Montessori gives. I always feel that the staff and management are passionate and try to do what they can for our child's learning. We enjoy seeing the range of activities he gets to do via updates on the app. Very happy we chose to take him to a Montessori.

Twinkles White Rose is just amazing, from the facilities and the placement, to the staff and the activities. It is placed on office building site and you can only get to it through security barrier that is accessed through intercom. The staff were amazing and I have never thought that they will manage to make my daughter settle in as quick as they did. My daughter born in 2020 in full lockdown she has not had interaction with people and she was scared and shy and she would be so attached to me that no one could pick her. Alice has done an amazing job, she is wonderful. After just 2 days of nursery, on the 3rd my daughter she did not cry after my at all. Amazing work. The play area and the toys are just amazing and they have an amazing outside area for the kids to play. I am very happy with the nursery.

My daughter has been coming to twinkles since she was 9 months old... she has just turned 2 and looks forward to coming to nursery which is great to see how much she enjoys her time at Twinkles. The staff are really friendly, Jess my daughters key worker is amazing!!!!!


-Danielle

We went through a couple of nurseries in which we had negative experiences before we found twinkles. They have been amazing from day dot and our son has excelled and blossomed as an individual. I had anxiety leaving our son after the previous experiences elsewhere but the staff go above and beyond to make sure both parents and children are comfortable. The garden area is huge so great for outdoor explorers. Handover on a morning is easy with no tears or screams and he always comes out on an evening with a big smile which always makes life much easier. They are also the only nursery I’ve seen that serve full and proper meals, especially tea as our little one loves his food so he was previously always coming home starving but not anymore. He’s definitely settled way better than we could have wished for in the 6 short months that he has been there.

From the minute I enquired about a place for my little boy at Twinkles, I got such a great impression. The nursery itself is lovely, full of activities and colour. They have a great garden area too with plenty to play with and learn about. I always feel kept in the loop when my little boy is there and never have any concerns. His diet is great and he always eats well at Twinkles. The staff are fantastic and to say how shy my my little one tends to be, has gained a great bond with all of his Key Persons so far.


-Natalie Wilson

I recommend this setting to parents, the staff is lovely and very caring toward children. My son is very happy there and he has fun.

Loved the nursery since day 1. They‚A very welcoming and understanding and caring. They have different activities every day and clean. Helped my child develop in so many areas and her language is better. Their meals are very good and the value for money is outstanding. Just would love to have more time spent outdoors with the kids.


-Mother of Child

I just wanted to write to say a big thank you. My son Leo loves coming to your nursery and sees you all as family. He is so happy and that's because of the wonderful caring staff, providing a safe and nurturing environment. I've found that all staff are warm and friendly and encourage the children. I feel able to go to work knowing that Leo is safe, happy and well cared for. I felt it is important to let you all know what a fantastic job you're doing and how much Leo loves you.

Hi, My munchkin been going to Montessori since more than a year now.. since then I must say she makes us feel so proud of her vith her knowledge Of talking, understanding, and learning day to day without making us worried. During pandemic as well , It was remarkable effort by Pradeepa and her all staff by keeping all the children busy with uninterrupted activities by organising weekly zoom call. I personally thank Pradeepa and her staff and will definitely recommend this nursery for children’s best development.


-Mother of Child

My daughter started Hounslow Montessori since she was 13months, the manager and all the staff has taken care of her without us working about her at all. We definitely recommend this nursery. The manager and the staff are doing a great job with learning to safeguarding we throughly are so pleased with this nursery. Also during Covid 19 lockdown, the nursery has been in touch with us every week via zoom call, all staff participated and engaged with my daughter and her other friends, they also introduced activities for the children to get involved with. The manager and the staff have been sending us amazing homework packs for My daughter to work with. We as a parent have had the best support during this pandemic time. It’s sad that we have to end our journey as my daughter starts reception in September, but we will always keep in touch. Thank you ever so much for all your hard work.


-Mother of Child

My daughter has attended KiddieCats for two years and is due to start school in September. The staff are warm, caring and approachable and go above and beyond to ensure the children‚Äôs happiness. My daughter is leaving Kiddie Cats confident, happy and ready to start school in September. Kiddie Cats have always been flexible and allowed me to make changes, even at short notice. They ensure the children have access to a wide variety of activities throughout the day and I love that they go outside as much as possible. They also take the children out for walks and do visits in the local community e.g. to the library or garden centre. The pandemic has made it even more apparent how dedicated, flexible and caring all of the staff members are as they have gone out of their way to ensure the children‚A safety and happiness. A wonderful setting which allows children to flourish and be school ready!


-Mother of Child

-Mother of Child

My son is going to this nursery from when he was 14 months old . He love it from first day. The settling was going very quick and eficiente for the child . Staff are very calm and friendly are going to extra mile for the child comfort . They are very kind to all the children’s and very well trained to help with children’s development. Are a lot of Montessori opportunities from where children’s can get more opportunities to learn about real live . My son is loving to go and have fun with his friends in here and also to see his favourite career and for my surprise is he everyday is coming home and is telling me he did different things with different people . That means he is loving everyone of them in a special way and his connection with them is very strong . Thank you so much for reading this long feedback but is worthing to give a try with your children’s to enroll them in this place and you will not be disappointed.


-Mother of Child

My daughter Nimrit started this nursery a year ago now. She has learned and transformed beautifully. I really appreciate the way thr staff is so close and caring towards my daughter n other children During the lockdown all my daughter wanted was to go back to nursery she absolutely love everyone there. I am grateful n glad that i choose this nursery for my daughter. I would definitely rate 5 stars to it although it deserves 10 stars.


-Mother of Child

Great teachers and my son is always super happy after I pick him up. I would recommend to everyone this nursery! We appreciate and big thanks to everyone in this tough time.


-Mother of Child

My son started Hounslow Montessori recently. Pradeepa and her staff are very lovely and caring. They give us a lot of details about how our son is progressing etc. The settling in session worked well. My son was very happy and have already bonded with the staff. He seems happier and more confident with his speech. Very professional and flexible. Great nursery for child development and someone you can trust.


-Mother of Child

I have 2 older children that went to an outstanding nursery, but Kiddicats puts them to shame. Staff are friendly, warm and are always open to discuss any issues we have straight away. Most of all my child is extremely happy there and safe and as a parent that is the most important thing to me as a parent. Through this whole Covid 19 pandemic we were always kept in the loop about changes. My son has been going there for almost a year and i couldn't have been happier. I would definitely recommend this setting. Working in a school setting myself, i can see where Kiddicats go beyond their call of duty.


-Mother of Child

Brilliant setting, both children have attended one still does currently as is very happy, always happy to attend and always has stories to tell and has built up good relationships with the kind and caring staff. Always happy to accommodate where possible at short notice. Would recommend without hesitation. I like that the staff are a little tactile with the kids and treat them as family is the best way to explain it. None of this we can't hold kids hands, can't put plasters on etc. Just basic common sense which is rare in today's day, but a welcome change and something that really sets the setting apart from others. Definatley does not feel like a clinical educational setting, feels more homely which definatley benefits the children. My eldest who is now nearly 7 is very confident and i credit kiddecats for this and she would also say 'It was amazing' and regularly asks if she can go back someday.

The information contained in Kinderly makes it much easier to access the evidence to make informed judgements instead of scrutinising paper files which vary in quality and are time consuming. In my view this product is excellent and will be highly beneficial to all Early Years practitioners and very supportive when conducting inspections. Ray - Ofsted Inspector Kinderly Together offers a system where you can record and share your observations of the children, clearly see areas where children might need additional support, highlight progress as a setting and it's visually pleasing. Not only has Kinderly helped to improve communications with parents by sharing experiences between home and the setting, it's fantastic value for money. I would definitely recommend Kinderly if you are looking to improve your setting’s approach to learning journeys.
