Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Westfields for just over three years and is so happy there. When he first started he found it really difficult, but the staff in the baby room were very patient and kind, so he soon settled. He also found some transitions difficult, particularly when returning after the first Covid
lockdown. But again, the staff were wonderful. He is now so happy and developing so quickly. The staff continue to provide a nurturing environment, mixed with lots of fun activities. The staff are always very cheerful and approachable: it has been easy to build a good relationship with them. There is a great outdoor space and my son is often having far too much fun playing outside with his friends that I have to almost bribe him to leave! As with many childcare settings, there does appear to be a high turnover of staff, but there is enough consistency to provide stability and any changes are usually communicated well. Thank you Westfields; you all work so hard!

My child enjoys her time in the toddler room at Westfields Day Nursery there is a good range of activities and plenty of outdoor time (far more than the baby room). My child is encouraged to try new things and the staff will cater to follow her interests. The food is varied and my child usually eats
it all. The nursery policies are strict re. illness so it is unfortunate that a sickness bud and Covid were both doing the rounds in October.

Our daughter is so happy at Westfields Day Nursery and has built great relationships with the staff and made lots of lovely friends. It's so comforting to know that it feels like a home from home for her. We have also been impressed with the nursery focus on teaching manners and have no doubt that the
nursery has accelerated her speech and conversation skills. We are also impressed with the garden, facilities and varied menu. We would recommend.

Westfields Day Nursery is a great nursery - the staff are wonderful, caring and committed. Our children have been very happy here - it is a safe, nurturing environment where their development is well supported, their emotional needs are met and their social skills are fostered. The site and facilities
are great, there's plenty of structured and unstructured activities to suit all interests, and the home cooked food is nutritious and tasty.

My daughter attends Westfields Day Nursery 4 days a week, she is learning so much every day. The staff in her room are very patient and friendly. The management have been supporting our family through some very difficult times and have given extra sessions as and when needed and have given telephone
support if we need it. Overall, very satisfied.

Both our children enjoy their time at nursery. They are growing in confidence and ability. The staff are great and have really got to know the children's interests. Not for improvement, use the app more, this is the only handover option and it at times doesn't provide significant information.

Our son loves going to Westfields every single time! The staff work so hard to ensure he is happy and content. Tapestry (the online learning journal) is packed full of photos and observations to know exactly the fun he has had during the day. They ensure children develop in their own way with a major
focus on independent learning. The separate areas are packed full of fun natural resources and we love their main focus is on outdoor learning. We couldn't recommend Westfields enough!

I have two children who attend Westfields. My eldest started in the baby room and is now in Rising 3’s. She gets so excited to go to nursery now and would love to go every day! I can not thank the team at Westfields enough for helping my daughter learn lots of new things and gain confidence in herself
and with other children. My youngest has recently started in the baby room and is settling in well. The staff are so friendly and provide excellent care. As a parent, it can be a very anxious time leaving your children in the care of others, but the team at Westfields go above and beyond.

My son started at Westfields when he was six months old. We were reluctant and anxious but from the outset he loved it. The small team is completely focused on the children and he is taking part in so many activities. He loves the outdoor - play in rain or shine, they all have time in the garden. Westfields
have been great during covid with plenty of clear communication and explanation of the measures they're taking. Thank you Westfields Nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My sons have been at Westfields since they were a year old, on my return to work. They have spent time in every room from ‘babies’ upwards and I can honestly say every member of staff has been wonderful. It would be remiss of me not to mention that during the early days (and beyond!) we had so much
support from certain members of staff, for which we will always be grateful. The boys really enjoy their “nursery days” and beyond just being looked after, they are really nurtured. At this strange time, in particular, I’m very appreciative of the extra lengths the Westfields team goes to, in order to keep the place up and running and keeping things feeling very normal for the children, because it provides such a valuable social and learning environment for the children. There are always lots of fun and new activities going on, they spend as much time outside as possible and I’m always a bit jealous when I hear about the day’s lunch and tea menu.

I cannot recommend Westfields nursery highly enough. Our children absolutely love it.
The activities, facilities, food, building and garden are excellent, and the employees and management make it exceptional for us. They have all shown such care for and support to our two children and the family as
a whole over the last few years. Our sensitive oldest has been nurtured and given the attention he needed to build his confidence and independence. Our boisterous youngest has a safe, caring and fun place to explore and learn. We feel that the team at Westfields have been a great influence towards both children’s’ development.
The detailed daily online updates and photos are very much appreciated, particularly during the current Covid restrictions (which are handled very well by the nursery). We love seeing the many activities and adventures the children have had during the day. The song time videos and photos of yoga and playing in the garden are particular favourites.

We would highly recommend Westfields Day Nursery. Our two-year-old daughter has been attending for almost 12 months and she’s very settled and happy there. The staff are lovely, very caring and attentive. The activities are engaging and it’s always nice to read on Tapestry what she’s been up to! A final
note about the catering which sounds delicious. Our daughter is always fed well with lots of tasty healthy food provided. Thank you, Westfields!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.825)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.825) out of 10 for Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.825 for Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (137 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 166 Ratings = 4.825
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 14 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 14 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.
