I couldn't be happier with the Nursery. My daughter has been here since she was 5 months old and they have always gone above and beyond for her. She has severe allergies and they have dealt with the situation so well putting additional things into place which we are so grateful as a family for. So far,
we've only had experience with the baby room, but the staff as so friendly and caring, I go to work knowing my daughter is in good hands. Even at 18 months old, she gets so excited for Nursery, running in every morning! Thankyou for all that you do!

My child has just completed a whole year at Partou Arnold Day Nursery and I couldn't fault my experience with the nursery and staff, any questions/queries/concerns, I have are quickely answered. My child runs to the baby room staff in the mornings now and may I add now doesn't want to leave when its
pick up time, which is so comforting for me in a werid way, as he clearly enjoys it and has fun with the staff members and children in his room.

I have used Partou for the past 3 and half years. My little boy have built amazing friendships and lovely binds with the staff. She was very attached to one staff member in particular in the baby room and now two specific staff members in the pre school room. One of these staff members in the pre school
room in particular has really contributed towards my little boys speech, who was previously with a speech therapist, she has even taken an interest in my son's second language - Italian and picked up when my son might be speaking his second language at times. There is also genuine care from the staff members with my son's picky eating and always report what he has eaten and what attempts they have tried to encourage new foods.
I like that the nursery is like a home and the resources are often natural and recyclable. Hopefully baby number 2 will be going (if there is space) next year

Since coming under new management in September 2023 the nursery has turned around. Over Christmas, a fantastic winter wonderland was created with meet and greet Santa, to a standard that rivalled many paying experiences.
The staff are motivated, caring and knowledgeable, they use an app to record
daily activities with videos and photos which makes me feel present during all my child's accomplishments. Each day I see the excitement that going to Leos Day Nursery brings to my child. Each week I'm impressed by the setup and activities created to engage my child with different cultures and celebrations and each month I feel like I've shared in my child's experiences and growth.
Overall I would highly recommend Leo's Day Nursery Arnold as a safe space for children to learn, develop and play. I think a lot of this is down to the new manager, and I can't wait to see how they transform the outdoor area ready for spring.

My review relates to our whole experience with Leo's Day Nursery. We think they are absolutely brilliant! Our son is in the baby room and the staff are so thoughtful, genuinely caring, fun, bubbly and approachable. I can't thank them enough for the care they've given to our child. Our son has been poorly
here and there so we're always a bit worried about that first day back at nursery but the staff are so reassuring and knowledgeable about the children's needs - we know he's in such good hands and the staff will call us if we need to know anything! We can't recommend them enough. Thank you Leo's staff for all that you do!

I have been part of the nursery since 2021, I can honestly say the care my son receives is immaculate. The manager goes above and beyond for my son. X is an awesome member of the team. She cares for my son in preschool, she arranges activities and fun things to do for the children. I honestly can say
any child that joins this nursery will be more than looked after.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has attended this nursery since she was around 2 years old, at this time we had sleep and speech therapists involved due to how under-developed my daughter was in these areas. Within a matter of weeks, she was improving on her speech, the nursery supported us with her naps and would respect
any decision we made and worked with us on that. Furthermore, my child began to interact more with other children, building and maintaining strong relationships - which she still continues to do to this day. Due to the cost of living crisis, we got into financial difficulty and couldn't pay our nursery bill and fell behind the manager supported us to come to a solution to ensure she didn't lose her placement. We are beyond grateful for the support for my child and ourselves as parents. The staff are all absolutely brilliant in the toddler room and I know I'll cry when my child leaves because she's so happy here and I know she'll miss the staff just as much as her friends! It truly is like a big family!

An amazing place. Stimulating activities which are sparked and planned from children’s interest. Staff show outstanding care for and interest in the children - they are known and valued. Children are encouraged to become confident, independent and respectful learners. Both our daughters have flourished
here - the opportunities and attention they received have given them a great start in life.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.687)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.687) out of 10 for Partou Arnold 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 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.887 for Partou Arnold Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (126 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 142 Ratings = 4.887
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Arnold 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 12 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.
