Day Nurseries Owned by Partou in Cambridgeshire

I removed my son (1 years old) from this setting due to a reported breach of safeguarding. The nursery deliberately wouldn't share any information regarding the alleged incident(s) and cared more about their reputation than my child or as a parent my own distress with the situation. I can't recommend this nursery and since starting another nursery we have realised quite how poor it is (for example in addition to the safeguarding incident we didn't receive a photo of my son for over a month - I get them everyday in their current nursery). This was a lovely nursery before private equity took it over, now it is souless and management in particular seem to have little care for the children.

I have had two children who spent many years at both the nursery and preschool site. They have loved their time and always been excited to attend. They have a strong connection with staff over the years and have always been well looked after and cared for. My third child is about to start and we are looking forward to many more happy memories.

Such a good experience walking in with Marley showing me all the play, friends and teachers. The BBQ and cup of tea was perfect. Thank you for the invite.

All satisfactory, pricing a tad high. Good to see agency staff levels down... might sort out the cost...

Great outdoor space, lots of activities available for the children. Looks forward to coming and always seems to have a good day.

Wonderful to spend time with my son and see the environment he plays in - clearly having so much fun! Thank you for setting up the stay and play for fathers!

Having experienced multiple childcare settings in the Royston area, we can confidently say that Partou Bumpkins has provided the best overall experience for our child and family. The combination of excellent care, dedicated staff, and enriching activities makes it a fantastic pre-school that we would happily recommend to others.

My daughter attends the pre school site and loves it. The range of activities available each day is fantastic. She especially loves being outside at Nature Rangers, learning about fire safety, Having lunch out side is another thing she likes.

She loves asking questions and Vanessa is her go to for answers.

Jasmine is an excellent manager and communication from the nursery is always very good.

My child joined bumpkins from the age of 2 and has absolutely thrived since joining, he was at a different setting before and the difference in care, learning and facilities is just worlds apart. The team at bumpkins care so deeply about the children there, and will spend time and energy learning about your child and how to get the best out of them. Recently my child has struggled at drop offs and they've worked with me to help improve this by crafting a routine personalised to him, I couldn't ask for more from a childcare setting. They always take great pride in the activities that they set up for the children and my child always comes home excited to share what he has learnt.

The forest school is also absolutely fantastic and such a great resource. Would highly recommend!

My little boy started in March 2026, I can't quite believe how well he has settled in. As a first time mum, it has been so reassuring to know that my boy is taken care of so well, and in a safe and clean environment. The staff have been so welcoming and communication is excellent, I always get full feedback on pick up. My boy is stimulated throughout the day with different activities and is always learning. I love that they spend time outdoors any time that weather permits. Finally, I can't leave a review without saying how fabulous the meals are! Thank you!

The team at Bumpkins made our settling journey seamless and comforting. They're always responsive and give detailed updates at the end of the day. My child is happy at pick up time which is very reassuring. It's been lovely seeing her get comfortable with the staff at the nursery.

Our son is so happy at Bumpkins and we couldn't recommend them more highly. The staff are really caring and kind and it's wonderful to see that our son has made strong, positive bonds with all staff members. Care is clearly very personalised and staff are dedicated to helping each child develop personally. Each day is very varied and careful planning time is clearly undertaken to ensure activities are targeted at different skills or areas for growth. We're astounded by how much our son has learnt during his time at Bumpkins so far. A wonderful nursery.

My daughter has attended Bumpkins since August 2024 and has loved every minute. She has great relationships with staff and has formed some lovely friendships. They offer a safe, loving and nurturing setting and she is so happy there each day which is the best part. The teams have been wonderful in supporting our daughter when needed and we can't thank them enough.

Highly recommend this nursery and the lovely staff.

It is useful that there is flexibility with pick up/drop off and that you are able to come into the nursery itself. I love that I can see my little one playing before he notices me! The stay and play afternoons are a nice touch. Overall the openness of the nursery is very comforting.

We very strongly recommend the nursery and look forward to sending our second child there when they're old enough!

We are so pleased our son was able to get a place at Bumpkins, as we have used them in the past for our older son. The staff are wonderful and have really helped our son in so many ways, have always gone above and beyond and most importantly he seems so happy when he is there which speaks for itself. I can't recommend them enough.

My daughter Aurora is very happy to be dropped off each morning, there is always a welcoming and friendly person for me to leave her with. She eats and sleeps well and always comes home in good spirits. As a first time mother I have lots of questions which the team are very patient and helpful when answering. They have given me lots of good advice. I would certainly recommend bumpkins.

Bumpkins feels like a second home, and I'll always be grateful for the love and care my daughter received there. I would highly recommend it to any parent looking for quality childcare.

My child always seems to have had a great day and does a variety of activities. I would like more updates on the app regarding photos and progress (EYFS). But every day the range of activities and end-of-day report is positive and full of activities. The range of food available is excellent.
