Playtime in Shepperton is an amazing nursery, I can't recommend it enough. My eldest has been there since she was eight months old and is now two and a half. She has come on leaps and bounds since starting and all of the girls who work there are so welcoming and kind and have so much patience with all
the children. My nine month old has recently started at the same nursery and like her sister has settled almost instantly. My girls love Playtime and so do I!

My daughter started Playtime in September she was only 9 months old.
The staff were excellent and made me feel happy to leave her.
She has learnt lots of new things while being at nursery and is very happy when I drop her off and collect her.
I am very happy with the nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since introducing the curiosity approach at the nursery, I have seen huge development changes in my little 2-year-old. She loves the set up at playtime, all the wooden toys, real-world objects and being given the option to explore and learn in her own time/way. The staff are warm and friendly. My little
one talks about them and her friends all the time at home.
It was the garden that sold Playtime Nursery to us and I am so glad it did.
They are out nearly every day. Couldn't ask for more.

My daughter has been going to Playtime since she was 6 months old and is now 4. She loved going to nursery running around in the garden and soft play and exploring all the different areas with pre-school.
My daughter always eats her dinner as they provide healthy cooked meals.
She has made lots of
friends and has a special bond with her key worker.

Could not have had a better experience. My son is still in this nursery and we have had nothing but positives from Playtime Nursery - Shepperton. Management and staff are all very welcoming and attentive, ensuring the best possible early stages of life. A refreshed look and upgraded tech epitomise the
direction in which they're headed! Keep it up!

Playtimes is a wonderful place of learning and fun.
My daughter has been attending for over one year. She comes home every day happy from a day learning and playing with her friends. She is always keen to tell me what she has learnt about numbers, letters, shapes and how to speak French. The team
at playtimes work very hard to ensure the children are well looked after.

I wanted to put pen to paper to express how absolutely delighted I am with Playtime Nursery. I have 2 children so they are in different rooms but the staff couldn’t be more pleasant, friendly and genuinely care for the children there. They are informative and give thorough feedback on my kids' day with
them. I’m very happy to recommend Playtime Nursery.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Playtime Nursery is the perfect environment for my son. It has a large soft play and garden which allows for a real variety of play and change of scene during the day. All the staff are really friendly and they all seem to know my son's name and say hello to him even if they don't work in his room or
with him directly. The rooms are good sizes for the age of the children which was one of my reservations on other nurseries in the area and the new recent renovations have made the nursery feel a lot fresher and brighter. The menus and food are also really varied and healthy which I like. My son always eats all or 2 of every meal and snack. Also very happy with the new manager as of this year. She is lovely.

Our son started at Playtime Nursery - Shepperton 6 months ago after moving from abroad with no English language skills and very shy at the age of 2 1/2. Today the improvement is remarkable. He speaks English, has lots of confidence and his cognitive development has soared! The staff were exceptional
in helping him adapt and showered him with love and affection.
He loves going to nursery and is a very happy little chap!

We have been so happy with the service provided by Playtime Nursery - Shepperton. It was my son's first time at nursery and the staff made the transition so much better than I had anticipated. Their caring and professional manner has made my son's experience such a happy one. He thoroughly enjoys school
and the facilities available.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been extremely happy since joining Playtime Nursery - Shepperton, she started one day a week and now does two. The lady who runs the babies room is calm, reassuring and helpful. My daughter loves her, she has now moved to the bigger babies room and is still happy. She toddles off in
the mornings without looking back. I have recently recommended to a mum with a new baby. The only comment, if I were to offer a suggestion, is the billing system which is very old fashioned and needs updating and simplifying for those parents who are not full time. But overall very very happy with Playtime.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter is 3. She has spent 2.5 days a week with Playtime Nursery - Shepperton since she was 8 months old. The service they provide has grown with her, from cuddles and weaning though to walking, getting the courage to go down the 'big slide' and the trials of toilet training. The staff have always
shown a great balance between caring, discipline and a great sense of humour. I'm very happy to have them as part of her upbringing.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.303)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.303) out of 10 for Partou Playtime Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 12 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 4.636 for Partou Playtime Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (96 Excellents x 5) + (44 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 143 Ratings = 4.636
  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 4.667 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Playtime Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 12 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 + 0.1 = 4
    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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.667
  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.

Job Title: Parent Relationship Manager Joined: 2014

Hello! I'm Lynn and I achieved my NNEB qualification in 1985 and my BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies degree after a little break in 2015! I have worked in daycare for the majority of my career, including 25 years of managing successful nurseries. I have always enjoyed working with families which naturally led me to my current role of Parent Relationship Manager with All About Children, whom I have enjoyed working for since 2014, and I find it really rewarding to assist parents in answering their queries and supporting them in choosing the right childcare for their child.

Job Title: Nursery Manager Joined: 2014

I previously worked at Chapel House Day Nursery and have recently returned from maternity leave after having a little girl of my own, this has given me a much better insight into the challenges many working families have and I hope that this will support to service we are able to offer. I am very passionate about my job and I strive to ensure that every child gets to best possible care and education while at Playtime Nursery Shepperton. From working in childcare for a number of years I know how important children’s routines are and how important a stimulating environment is in meeting each individual child’s needs.
