We have been so impressed with Woodlands since our son started in September. The curiosity approach is excellent, food is well-balanced and nutritious and staff are friendly and hard-working. It’s a lovely environment.

Wow! You have made the transition of my little boys time into childcare as smooth as it could possibly be. The settling in sessions were organised quickly and the whole team were very accommodating to us as a family. My little boy has settled in extremely well and always seems to enjoy himself while
there. I love the tapestry photos and observations (especially his first few days as it alleviated some of the anxiety I had about leaving him). Thank you to all at Woodlands.

My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery. The staff are always friendly and willing to go the extra mile. The under 2's room provides a variety of learning experiences and the children always look happy! Thanks for providing my daughter a great start to her learning journey.

I am very pleased with the progress my son is making. All staff are attentive and pass on messages. Managers are helpful, approachable and nothing is too much trouble. The curiosity approach offers something a little different and because of this my sons imagination, problem-solving and respect for
his environment have flourished. My son eats well and is willing to try different foods in nursery (I must ask the staff their secret). Above all this, he is happy to come to nursery which in my opinion speaks volumes.

My wife and I are very happy with this nursery. We are confident that they treat our 2 year old son with kindness, patience and great care. The staff resolve problems in a calm and sensible manner, like when our toddler was biting other children. He (our son) has developed into a clever and alert child,
no doubt because of the care he receives at nursery.

Our son receives excellent care. He has learning disabilities and the nursery have embraced the advice provided by his therapy support professionals. They have been led by his needs and have never moved him between rooms before he was ready. Best of all he loves the staff and enjoys being there.

My son enjoys nursery every day he goes, he talks about all the things he does in a day. My son learns so much at nursery and Woodlands tailors his learning to his interests. Every day they play with him which supports his learning and development. Regular catch-ups and parents talks keep me updated.

I am happy overall with the care of both of my girls. I feel the nursery has improved since the new manager started as I was very unhappy before that. I would appreciate more feedback regarding projects/topics for the preschool room but this has been happening more recently with the weekly memos and
on tapestry.

From the very first moment we visited the nursery I was impressed. The staff always have a smile on their faces and we are always greeted with such positivity and the fact they know everyone is amazing! In terms of communication, it couldn't be any better; there is a weekly email, daily written report
card, Tapestry app, daily verbal feedback, as well as emails as and when needed. We love the fact that the nursery uses the curiosity approach, which makes them stand out from other nurseries in the area. The fact that my child has a smile on their face every time we pick them up, gives us peace of mind that they are in the best hands possible.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was concerned about leaving my 1 year old son when he started nursery this month, but his transition into Woodlands Day Nursery has been much more smooth than I could've hoped for, he was offered a number of free settling in sessions which the staff at Woodlands Day Nursery were happy to provide and
in fact encouraged. They understand that it's a better experience for everyone involved if the child is comfortable in the nursery environment. Now he attends regularly and although he's had wobbly periods when he's been teething or struggled to settle for naps, he has otherwise enjoyed his days at Woodlands. His appointed key person and everyone in the baby room looking after him have given him lots of cuddles and encouragement. He has food allergies and everyone has been brilliant at ensuring he avoids foods he reacts to (he has a special coloured plate). I am far less worried about him than I anticipated and it's been a weight off my mind. It's so lovely that the whole nursery experience has been so positive for us.

While our daughter has only recently begun attending Woodlands Day Nursery, we are very impressed with how well she has settled in. The staff, in particular the baby room leader and our daughter's keyworker have been amazing and really put our minds at rest during what can be a difficult time for parents
leaving their baby with new people. Thank you.

Woodlands Day Nursery provides a warm, nurturing, fun, learning environment for my little boy. He loves his key worker and they all seem to genuinely care. The food is always a hit and the toys and decor since recent renovations make for a great environment to play and learn.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.843)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.843) out of 10 for Partou Woodlands Halton Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 9 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 4.943 for Partou Woodlands Halton Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (99 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 105 Ratings = 4.943
  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 4.9 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Woodlands Halton Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 9 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.
