Review from Hayley E (Mother of Child) published on 12 March 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have had the most amazing experience with this nursery, can't praise the staff enough, especially my daughter's one-on-one, he is really good at his job but does not make you feel it's just his job he tends to not only the child's needs but mine as a parent. I don't really like to share my daughter
and was very worried about how inconsistent my drop offs and pick ups may be around my other daughter and other jobs during the day but her key keyworker and all the staff have been nothing but amazing my daughter has really taken her sessions in her stride she's amazed me how well she's getting on with routine in there and that's all down to the patience and teamwork of the staff. I could not speak any more highly after my older daughter attended another nursery I have something to compare and Up and Away is no comparison they do things I never expected from a nursery, updates on my daughter's day-to-day activities and always a little recap on pick up. Can't thank them enough truly the dream team.

Absolutely can not thank and praise this wonderful nursery enough. The staff are all lovely and welcoming and have taken care of my son tremendously. He has come out of his shell toward other kids and people since attending the nursery and his speech and vocabulary has come on leaps and bounds as he
was a covid baby he was struggling with separation anxiety but since coming to up and away that has helped so much and my son has grew from it. All the staff and management do a fantastic job here at Up & Away Day Nursery Speke.

My daughter has attended Up and Away for the past three years and has loved her time there. She is due to start primary school in September, and I know she will miss all the friends she has made and the staff in the preschool room. The staff are friendly and approachable and take the time to get to
know the children individually. My 22-month-old son also attends the nursery and has settled in well. He has some additional needs, which the nursery has accommodated really well. I would recommend this nursery to people living in the local area or who work on the Estuary Business Park.

Our little boy started full-time at this nursery in June 2023. The team in blue skies have been incredible and he loves every minute there. The genuine care the staff have for the children is wonderful and they do such a range of activities to keep them engaged and developing. He always has the biggest
smiles for the staff.
As a parent, the communication is amazing, the app means we can see photos of what he has been up to and each day we get a summary of what he ate, how much he slept and even how many nappies he had! So pleased with our choice and I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Since my child has started in the nursery, I have seen her progress in a very beneficial way, we still experience some upset when I initially leave her, but once I’ve gone she is absolutely fine and loves nursery and being with her friends and the staff. My daughter has grown special bonds with a few
members of staff that I know go over and above to ensure her happiness and comfort. The activities she participates in during her nursery days are interesting and really engaging for my girl. I can’t thank them enough for the reassurance they offer to both myself and my child

Our daughter has been attending the nursery for 16 months now. We're very happy with her progress and she is coming on in leaps and bounds. The staff at the nursery are so invested in her care and development, they're always welcoming, friendly and approachable.
The nursery itself is clean, accomodating
and has plenty of toys, books, activities etc for the children.
They have proven to be very flexible around our work requirements and shift pattern, which other places wouldn't have been able to facilitate.
We're very happy and we would definitely reccomend it to other families looking for a nursery.

Honestly can’t fault up and away in any way! They are amazing with my son he absolutely loves going to nursery. He has came out of his shell so much since being here and I can see how much he is learning week by week. He definitely has a soft spot for the staff as he’s always giving them the biggest
cuddles too. Best environment for my son and I can’t wait for my daughter to start once she’s a little bit bigger, I would recommended to anyone.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since September 2022 and she loves it so much. We got a good feeling when we viewed the nursery due to the facilities and warm welcome from the staff and it hasn't disappointed. My only niggle is that I wish they used a better app for me to view photos of
activities but that's only a minor thing. I would highly recommend Up & Away Day Nursery Speke, my little girl is happy so I am happy.

Genuinely cannot praise this nursery enough, my little boy has been going since January and absolutely loves it. He has come on so much and actually tries new foods in nursery! All of the staff in blue skies are amazing with him especially one who I genuinely feel treats him and the other babies as
though he was her own and I cannot thank her enough for this. I was nervous putting him in the nursery so young at first but I will forever be grateful I did now. Would recommend Up & Away Day Nursery Speke to anyone.

I love picking up my granddaughter from nursery and finding out about all the amazing things she has done. Sometimes she doesn't want to come home because she is having so much fun. Staff are always kind and helpful and obviously care about all the children that they look after, as they seem to know
them so well. Would definitely recommend Up & Away to anyone in the area looking for childcare.

My daughter has attended for over a year following the recommendation of a friend. Since enrolling my daughter, two of my relatives have now enrolled their children here. All of the staff are lovely and brilliant with my daughter and she comes home each night happy and exhausted from playing and learning
with her friends. Couldn’t recommend it enough!

Our daughter absolutely loves coming into nursery, she only does 3 days a week but she thoroughly enjoys every one of them. She has made so many friends and her confidence had grown massively. She loves the staff (she talks about three members of staff in particular, a lot!) and looks forward to seeing
them. The facilities are always clean and tidy and our daughter loves the 'big garden' and the library the most. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a first time parent I was extremely nervous about putting my child into any nursery. Up & Away Day Nursery Speke made us feel at home ever since our first visit. Our little man has built special relationships with all the staff and this has made us feel at ease when handing him over. The nursery
also has an app which is regularly updated with pictures of all the children so we get to see what he has been up to when he's in nursery. The food always sounds delicious and has a very wide range of food which is great for him too. When I come to collect my boy I get to know exactly what the days have been like and the majority of the time it is great! I feel like my son is thriving in the nursery and has shown great excellence in the past year he has been there, both me and his mother can only thank the nursery for their hard work.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Simply put, my daughter just loves going to Up and Away Day Nursery and Pre-School. As a parent, I want my child to be safe and happy. I therefore can’t ask for more than seeing a smiling face when I drop her off and pick-up of an evening. The staff are very caring and take the time to get to know the
families, as much as the children. The flexibility that the extended opening hours offer to working parents, together with the comprehensive fee, which includes meals, nappies and sunscreen were added benefits; not to mention ease of location. But, above all, at Up and Away you feel part of a community. I’ve seen my daughter come on leaps and bounds since attending the nursery in terms of her confidence, speech and other motor skills which, being the product of a ‘lockdown baby’, coupled with the fact she is an only child, was of great importance to us to see that positive development.

My son is very shy and he has never been exposed to many children around him. He was nervous at the beginning however, he settled well after a short period of time. All the carers in the nursery are great and with patience, my son now likes to go to nursery so much and he even has some of his favourite
carers! Thanks to everyone in the nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.913)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.913) out of 10 for Partou Up & Away 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 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.913 for Partou Up & Away Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (230 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.913
  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 Up & Away Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 21 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 96 number of registered child places is 19.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
