Partou Up & Away Day Nursery & Pre-school

My child is always excited to go to nursery, is well cared for and clearly enjoys the company of the staff. His nutrition is well catered for and balanced. His support in his development is regularly fed back and we are pleased with this process and outcome. The journey in this nursery has led him to be ready for school. Great value for money also.

Both my children attended with nursery and the staff go above and beyond for both the children and parent. Both my boys have grown more confident and independent throughout the years. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

Great nursery. The staff are lovely and very attentive to each child. I have a picky eater and it's something they've helped us work on which has brought my child on a lot in terms of food they will try. The rooms are great and all the kids are always happy and well looked after.

I wish i found up and away earlier!

Our son joined Partou when he was one, and now in his final year, it's been a joy to watch him grow into an independent young boy. The nursery has played an essential role in supporting his language development and reinforcing the five golden rules, which we still use at home. We're especially grateful for their support during potty training. The team was patient and encouraging, providing plenty of opportunities, and thanks to their efforts, he's had very few accidents. The online app makes it easy to stay updated with pictures and details of his food and activities. The nursery goes out of its way to ensure the children have a variety of meals, with plenty of play equipment, and the kids are always encouraged to play outside when the weather is nice. Over the years, he's built wonderful relationships with the staff, who always welcome him with a smile and a hug. While we're sad to say goodbye to such a fantastic team, we are deeply grateful for everything they've done for him.

Our little boy absolutely loves attending Up & Away Nursery. Each morning, he arrives excited, diving into the arms of the staff without hesitation. We appreciate the consistent updates on his daily activities, including photographs that showcase his learning. The information on his feeds, naps, and nappy changes gives us peace of mind, knowing he is well cared for by such a professional team. At the end of each day, we receive a thorough rundown from the staff about his day, which is incredibly helpful. His development is progressing rapidly, thanks to the dedicated nursery staff. We also want to thank two members of staff in particular for their oversight, especially in addressing the minor issues we encountered, which were resolved immediately. After considering numerous nurseries across Merseyside, Up & Away stood out for its cleanliness, caring environment, professionalism, and thorough approach to child development. Well done to everyone involved!

My son has attended this nursery since February 2023, I've had 2 of my other sons attend here prior to this in 2019/20. It's a lovely place, the staff are really attentive and provide lots of fun-filled activities throughout the day, my son particularly enjoys the sensory room and garden for play. He's come on so well this past year and can't thank the staff and nursery manager enough they've just been brilliant. Their new app is really good and interactive I can reply to comments on his activities throughout the day and can see photos of what he's been getting up to.

I can genuinely say that each of the staff has brought compassion and a frankly outrageous level of enthusiasm to looking after my little boy. I'm aware that the nursery recently became a part of Partou and has had a change of management, but the new team have been great to work with, and super helpful with changing hours and the new government funding.

My son attends Up & Away Day Nursery and has recently moved up to his last room before he goes to primary school. He has come on so much with the help of staff and his key worker. I'm beyond thankful for the help and support they give him. With new management now standing in I feel she is an asset to Partou a company not just the nursery she is beyond helpful with any concerns I have and will always go out of her way to ensure they're solved in a timely and professional manner. Choosing this nursery was the best decision I have made for my son.

The app used to communicate with parents is excellent and I love to see what she is getting up to!

We had our settling-in sessions which were reassuring and again staff were so friendly and supportive. My little girl loves going to nursery, she has the biggest smile on her face going in and on the handover to the staff. I am very pleased so far with our experience. The parent app is also very good to check in on what she is doing throughout the day. The nursery is reasonable in terms of price and caters for shift workers which is very hard to come across with other nurseries or childminders.

I recommend this nursery to any parents I speak to as it’s just brilliant. My son always comes home to tell us what a fun-filled day he has always had and the yummy healthy foods he has eaten.

I viewed several nurseries before choosing Up & Away. My son has settled in so well and loves going. The nursery is quick to respond to any queries. This environment has really nurtured my son, I can see his confidence grow every day. I can't rate it enough.

Honestly, I can’t find a fault and you won’t either. My children always come to me happy and full of confidence. Even the younger staff are the most polite people I’ve ever met with a good mature head on their shoulders. Theirs not a situation they cannot handle. I’m entirely grateful for each of them.

We are happy to have found this nursery, it is comforting to know that I can go to work and know that my baby will be happy and well looked after, my experience over the last few months has been better than I expected, and I highly recommend the nursery.

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.

Lovely nursery, very friendly staff. Lots of facilities provided and included in the fees. Baby always comes home happy. Nice and local and plenty of parking spaces outside. The key members are very attentive.

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.

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.
