About this day nursery

Twinkle Tots in King's Lynn offers a warm and welcoming environment for children aged 0-4 years, operating all year round. The nursery received a 'Good' rating in its latest Ofsted inspection on 5th September 2025.

Children are embraced by enthusiastic and attentive staff, fostering strong bonds and a sense of security. The curriculum is broad and engaging, designed around individual needs and interests to promote independence and a wide range of learning experiences.

The nursery places high importance on children's physical health and well-being, incorporating physical activity sessions and a dedicated growing area in its outdoor provision, where children can experience growing their own food.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders and staff use robust observation and assessment processes to support children's development. Children's progress is assessed and used to identify areas for additional support, ensuring that children's needs are identified quickly. Leaders and staff adapt the provision to best meet the needs of the children, such as additional physical resources in response to a child's preferred play and learning style.

Outdoor space

A growing area has been added to the outdoor provision so that children can now experience growing their own food. Children enjoy challenging themselves on physical equipment and by building their own obstacle courses. Staff support children to consider risk by using gentle questioning and posing ideas about what might happen from their actions.

My daughter has been attending Twinkle Tots since she was 5 months old. They have taught her so much and encouraged her growth and development in all areas. She's been able to move up through baby, toddler and then nursery, and has been proud to graduate recently. The lovely ladies have helped her to see the excitement in her next chapter and built her confidence for what is to come. She will miss Twinkle Tots dearly though, as will I. Being a working parent they have been able to offer me so much flexibility and understanding. Particularly in summer months when my work is very demanding. Communication from them is very good and it's great to be able to see my daughter enjoying her days. Thank you to all the staff, you are amazing 🥰

My daughter has been attending Twinkle Tots for a few months now. After removing her from another nursery, I was anxious about her starting somewhere new and experiencing the same problems. The team made it so easy, the communication from her key worker has been amazing and she loves going. Her development has been fantastic and she is continually learning new skills which is displays at home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to others.

My daughter has been attending twinkle tots since April, she absolutely loves it! Would 100% recommend this nursery. All the staff are so lovely and my daughter is always so happy on the morning of going to nursery and cannot wait to run through the doors to go play and see all her friends she’s made. I also love the fact that they keep you updated on the app and they sometimes post photos and activities they do while they are there so we can see what our little ones are up too 🥰 Can’t recommend twinkle tots enough! Overall wonderful!

We couldn’t be happier with our choice of sending our little girl to Twinkle Tots. From day one, the staff have been incredible welcoming, nurturing and attentive. Our little girl has blossomed socially and intellectually thanks to all the staff at Twinkle Tots with the activities and curriculum provided and the progress she has made there is remarkable. The setting is always offering engaging learning opportunities and she looks forward to going to nursery every day, talking excitedly about her friends and the wonderful staff. There is no doubt I will be sending my son when ready to this setting also!

My daughter has had a few issues with leaving me over the last 6 months and everyone at twinkle tots have really helped ease the process. Offering advise on how to handle this and sending updates to me so my mind is eased that she is okay. Phoebe talks about her friends at the nursery, which are never children, always the carers! She’s a little obsessed! But it shows me that they work brilliantly with her! Thank you twinkle tots. Xx
