Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been going to Best Friends Nursery from the age of 4months, I have always been really happy with everything.
The girls in the baby room are fantastic and I feel they really care for my daughter. She really enjoys nursery and now goes 4 days a week.
I have recommended the nursery to
lots of friends.
The only bad point I would say, is there have been a lot of staff leave the baby room, which they haven't replaced. The girls are amazing but I think they need one more full time to support them.

I have had 2 children through this nursery. Management change within last year- great improvements in natural play and outdoor provisions. Staff enthusiastic, motivated and very knowledgeable. Menus great for children and support healthy eating. A fabulous, stimulating and nurturing environment where
children are happy and safe.

My daughter has been here for a year now and I am very pleased with the care she has received. The staff are friendly and caring. The staff are always understanding of any concerns I have and try their best to work alongside me in overcoming any problems which may arise. My daughter truly enjoys coming
to this nursery and they always try their best to take the children out as much as possible. This nursery has good outdoor facilities, good staff and is run very efficiently. I would always recommend.

We are so happy with Best Friends Nursery. We had to make a sudden change in our son's childcare in December 2014. The staff were amazing and he settled very quickly. He loves nursery and runs down the path to get there every day! What more could we ask for!

Very happy with my daughters care and development at Best Friends, Worsley. Since she joined 2 years ago she has settled in well and skips into her class in the morning! As she has grown she now is thriving in her progress through excellent effort of staff and provision of enjoyable and developmental
activities.

We feel this is a good nursery, as our daughter is well looked after, safe, and enjoying her time here. We have noticed that our daughter is developing very well,especially with her speech and understanding.
The French lessons are also welcomed as this helps her to learn and develop in other areas,
and have a greater understanding of different cultures.

My son attends Best Friends and absolutely loves it. He is so excited to come in and is always talking about pre-school and his friends. The development and confidence in him from the nursery is remarkable. I would highly recommend to anyone. I am very impressed. He has been here since he was 6 months
old and is now 3.

Best Friends Nursery is a fantastic nursery. My son & daughter have only been attending around 4 months and have both come on leaps and bounds. I was worried about the change from there old nursery to a new, but I had nothing to worry about! my son settled in within the first day! Everyone was so lovely
to him and welcomed him in, there was tears from me rather than my son!
The staff and management are fantastic very experienced and always keep me informed and up to date with everything.
The facilities for both children in both rooms are great lots for each child to do. The food and menu is excellent a good variety each week.
I would defiantly recommend Best Friends! its great to be able to say when I drop my children off in the morning I know they are in good safe hands and I know they will be enjoying there time there!

I think Best Friends Nursery is excellent, both my children love going. They have both really settled in and are really developing. The nursery keeps us up to date with parents evenings and they also encourage the children to continue to learn at home. The staff are excellent! Very friendly, very experienced
and caring. They always let us know straight away if my children are poorly, the food is very good and varied. They take a real interest in the children and I am very happy I picked Best Friends!

Current Review Score: 7.9 (7.889)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.9 (7.889) out of 10 for Partou Best Friends Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.2 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.7 out of 5 from 5 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 4.181 for Partou Best Friends Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (40 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (7 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.181
  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 3.708 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Best Friends Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 5 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 = 3.5
    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 120 number of registered child places is 24. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 24 = 0.208
  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.
