Review from K F (Mother of Child) published on 10 April 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son started at Hilltops a month ago and we're really happy with the care he is getting. The month before starting at nursery we were offered plenty of settling in sessions which made the transition easier for us all. The staff are so welcoming and friendly and our little boy has already formed an attachment with the practitioners. The nursery has a lovely atmosphere and really personal feel and you can tell they really care about each child and their development. Communication through the app is great and it is lovely to see pictures/videos of different activities they do throughout the day. We are very happy with Hilltops and would highly recommend.

Reply from Leah Hannon, Manager at Partou Hilltops Day Nursery & Pre-school

"Thank you for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that your son is settling in well and that you are happy with the care he is receiving at Hilltops. Our dedicated staff takes great pride in creating a warm and nurturing environment for each child. Thank you for recommending us, we truly appreciate it!"

My twin boys love the nursery and all the staff. They enjoy every day and even smile when they see the building. They love going outside and all the activities that they get up to and we have seen at home how much they have learnt since they started going. 10/10.

Overall Experience

Our daughter started nursery in October and we're really happy with the nursery. They were really helpful from the beginning and made her settling-in sessions better for all of us. All staff are friendly and approachable. There's lots to keep her busy and the outdoor space is great. I would recommend this nursery.

Review from Frances G (Mother of Child) published on 26 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been so impressed with Hilltops Nursery since the day we signed our little boy up. The rooms are always set up with different activities each day and my little boy is always so excited to go inside and play. They have always worked around my own home routines to the best of their ability. They adapted the foods given to our little boy when he was younger and still will do so if he refuses to eat. He has come so far since attending and the chatterbox he is shows how much he is learning on a daily basis. Absolutely fantastic nursery and would recommend to anyone.

Reply from Erin Lowe, Family Care Team at Partou Hilltops Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you so much for your glowing review! We are thrilled to hear that your little boy is enjoying his time at Hilltops Nursery and is learning so much. Our goal is always to create a welcoming and enriching environment for every child. Thank you for choosing us for your child's care.

Overall Experience

Both my children have and one still does attend Hilltops and they both just love it. They are constantly doing new activities, creating, having adventures and exploring the outdoors. They have formed such lovely bonds with all the workers at the nursery. The nursery is lovely and creates such a nice environment for children to grow in and feel safe.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 9 months old. She is smashing milestones and I firmly believe the staff at Hilltops have a huge part in this. The nursery has a wonderful outdoor space. It is clean and well-kept. Our daughter absolutely loves it here and she adores the staff. She always has a story to tell about her day, and she looks forward to going in the morning.

I have a 4-year-old son who has autism non-verbal, and we had a difficult few months, he has eczema as well, the staff and management have been so supportive to me and helped me finally get better. He's now back to the hours he should be doing, great respect to them, many thanks.

Review from C M (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My three-year-old has been at the nursery from being 9 months old. There had been a turnaround of staff and management. The new current manager is absolutely fantastic, she has been so proactive, making changes to improve the standards. The staff from the cook, and apprentice, right up to management, are wonderful with my son and he loves going, he treats them like his second family. He has achieved all his developmental goals with the support from the staff and his key worker. The communication is excellent, I feel like I don’t have to ask questions as full verbal updates are provided regularly and daily updates/reviews and observations with pictures are uploaded on the app. My 8-month-old is currently having taster days and is absolutely loving it. The staff have relieved all my anxiety and worries with leaving him for the first time.

Overall Experience

My son loves attending nursery and has a great relationship with the staff. They are very friendly and communicate well about what my son has been up to during the day. There is a good range of activities indoors and outdoors to keep him entertained and stimulated. The nursery provides a wide range of healthy and wholesome food for all meals and snacks, and my son comes home full and content!

Since the start of a new manager, there have been no changes to staff, apart from additions, which is always a good sign! All the girls there my daughter adores and she has some fab little friends, new activities and toys, learning and creative.

I'm also a massive fan of the new app that The Hollies Private Day Nursery and Pre-school have started using. Don't change girls, you're doing fab!

I have had an excellent experience with the nursery, they have been very accommodating with my child's settles and have been very reassuring throughout the process. The environment is very enriching and there is always something new! The team have been great with me and my child so much so she has settled very well which gives me the peace of mind I needed before I returned to work.

Review from S Y (Mother of Child) published on 11 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been going to The Hollies for two years now and goes for two mornings a week. He is sometimes upset and does not want to be parted with me, but I always know that I can call and check up on him and when I do ring up they say he was fine as soon as I walked out of the door! They go outside a lot and play which my son loves, and I know that there’s always attentive staff there to give him the attention he needs/wants if he wants some quiet time to read or play independently.
I don’t know if the app is still used in nursery but I would like use of the app more and to be able to look at content on there from his day, I appreciate that will use up staff time to add content that is spent with the children.

Overall, I am happy with the nursery and when he starts to go there for the 30 hours in January I hope that there will be a bit more carer/parent feedback, I’m not sure if there is a parent's evening or a drop-in that can be utilised just to check up on progress.

Review from J T (Father of Child) published on 19 April 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We moved from a different day nursery which was appalling to be quite honest and as a parent who was worried every day about the protection of their child inside a nursery and then to come to The Hollies and all of those worries went. I have full trust in this nursery and they haven't yet disappointed. My child has developed rapidly since starting at The Hollies, as well as he always seems to have a smile on his face every day, he's tired when he comes home so you know full well his day has been jam-packed with activities and that he's constantly learning. Fast response to let us in, no waiting around especially in the morning when you have work for 8 am. Really friendly staff as well and the manager is really friendly and gets stuck in when needs must. Overall very, very happy about this nursery and would recommend it to anyone.

My son goes to The Hollies Private Day Nursery and he loves it. All the staff are very nice and professional. There is so much to do for the children, lots to do and good food. Also lots of activities for them and learning so much as you would in school. I recommend The Hollies to all the parents who have children, this is the best nursery to go to. Number one nursery for the UK.

Overall Experience
The staff are friendly and accommodating. My 10-month-old gets really excited about the days that she's in and has progressed already so much since she started 3 months ago.
The only drawback I would say is staffing which has been acknowledged.
With regard to my daughter's growth and development, the team are proactive in working with us to find out routines, likes and dislikes and applying them to her time at the nursery which makes home life easier too.

Have already recommended to friends!

My little boy goes to this nursery and honestly, I cannot say a bad word about it. The staff are lovely and friendly, my boy loves the staff and always comes home talking about them full of joy! The facilities are fantastic and vast. It's just a joy for my little boy to come out of nursery talking happily about what he did that day. Highly recommend The Hollies.

Review from M L (Mother of Child) published on 15 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child has attended this nursery for a number of years and absolutely loves it. He is so happy to attend every morning which is wonderful to see. The staff are very caring and know my child very well. They do a variety of activities every week and try and focus on my child's interests where possible. A form comes home asking about new interests and activities at home so that they are up to date with all this information. Every day when I pick him up, his key worker tells me all that he has been up to, eaten and created. It always sounds like lots of fun. My child has a food allergy which is always catered for. If staff are unsure about something, they will contact me to ask, which I think is wonderful. I would thoroughly recommend the nursery to anyone.
