Caring staff, enthusiastic people, colourful areas and an amazing soft play area for physical play. My child enjoys her days at nursery, where she will never want to come home.

Our 2 and a bit-year-old daughter has been attending Playtime Nursery - Shepperton for around 9 months and we have seen her come on in leaps and bounds in that time. She has gained confidence, particularly when interacting with groups of other children. She has progressed from Mini Tots to Little Boppers
and we've been happy with her key workers in both classes. She will often say 'had fun at nursery' to me in the car on the way home which I take as a good sign! The nursery is well stocked and as it used to be a soft play it has a really great soft play area with ball pit, slides etc that our little one loves. Very happy with our decision to put her in Playtime.

We could not be happier with our choice of nursery for our son, he has been with Playtime Shepperton for the last 5 months. All I can say is what an amazing nursery. Since our son joined the nursery, his development has come on leaps and bounds. Our sons key worker is a lovely person, you can tell she
genuinely cares for all the children she looks after, this gives me as a mother a great comfort knowing I am leaving my son in the care of someone who not only I trust, but my son adores.

This nursery is fantastic. The staff are always polite and friendly, our son really loves to come here and has excelled since coming here. There are lots of fun activities for children, they have massive soft play which our son enjoys and the pre-school is great for children to help prepare for primary
school.

Excellent nursery, great resources - a huge soft play. Staff are so caring and look after my son's every need. He was particularly tricky to settle but the staff took extra time to make us both feel secure. I am so happy with choosing this nursery, it is large but has a real family feel. Each staff
member you meet makes you feel welcome. My son has learnt so many new skills and eagerly shows me what he has learnt at the nursery during the days he attends. I would and do recommend this nursery to everyone when asked.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Firstly, I want to say a big thank you to the entire management, teachers and staff at Play Time Nursery. You're all doing a fantastic job. I have watched from afar and you make every child feel so special. What intrigues us more is the undivided attention you give to parents on daily basis...Our daughter
is very happy and content at the nursery. There is never a dull day.


Day in and day out we see the great confidence she possesses and we strongly believe it's because of the positive environment and the due diligence in nurturing her abilities.


We don't know where you get your energy from day in and day out.
Keep up the excellent work......

Excellent nursery with wonderful staff who are really friendly and caring . My daughter started in Little Gems and has moved through to Mini Tots. Staff were able to support the transition and my daughter settled well in both rooms. My daughter loves playing on the soft play area and socialising with
her friends. Staff are very informative at pick up and give great verbal feedback.

My daughter started at Playtime nurseries in Shepperton back in October and I have only praise for the place and all its staff. Every time we arrive we are greeted with smiles and there is always a member of staff ready to welcome my daughter often with a hug. She is straight away included in the activities
and happily joins in. When I collect her she talks about the exciting things she has done that day and she really is learning so much. We absolutely love this place and highly recommend it.

My little sister is at playtime and always comes home after a day at nursery talking about what a day she has had. Her key worker is fabulous and has always been understanding with any problems there has been within the family. My sister has had problems with her health and the nursery and management
have not only been understanding but also incredibly supportive. I love picking my sister up and from nursery as it is so bright and colourful and there is so much work on the lines.

My niece started Playtime Nursery back in September last year. I, myself work in the education system and I think this nursery is fabulous. This nursery creates a warm and fun environment for the children and they really do come first. I'm due in May and I will definitely put my child into this nursery.
The soft play structure is massive and I know my niece talks about it all the time.

Fabulous nursery my children love coming! All the staff are so welcoming and make my children feel like home.
One of my children goes into Mini tots and was a bit unsettled when first started, the staff didn't batter an eyelid and have really worked hard to help my child settle in!
Can't thank Playtime
Nursery enough.

This nursery is a fabulous nursery, it is the first nursery I visited with my little girl. I wanted to check a few other nurseries out but fell in love with playtime. The staff are so welcoming and nothing is too much for them. My daughter made an amazing connection with her keyworker and now constantly
talks about her at home. I couldn't feel more comfortable leaving my child anywhere else. I would recommend this nursery to everyone who wants their child's development to come first.

My daughter has been at Playtime since being 9 months old; in Babies, then Mini-Tots and now in Boppers. The care she has received both pastorally and educationally throughout has been outstanding. She thoroughly enjoys it there and she has built excellent relationships with the staff.
From a logistical
point of view, the nursery has been amazing (and flexible) in managing to cater for our needs as working parents.
I would highly recommend this nursery.

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.
