Partou Hilltops Day Nursery & Pre-school

Our son has been at The Hollies since he was 9-months-old and he's now four and a half and preparing for school. We chose the nursery for its large bright rooms and great outdoor space. The playground has now been renovated, and our son tells us it's great. The large field at the side they go on is also a great benefit in our eyes. We have seen some staff changes in our time, but our son has always loved going, and they always seem to have had high standards with recruitment. The current manager and her team are wonderful and have been great throughout the challenges of the last year. They are preparing him for school very well, and I have no concerns at all that he won't be ready. The Hollies also have its own cook also a benefit as everything is cooked fresh on site. Thanks to all the staff team.

Both of my little girls have attended The Hollies; one is still currently there, and the other left for school. I viewed so many nurseries locally and was drawn to this one. I loved the location, loved the fact they have key fobs for parents to just let themselves in, loved the setting and the outdoor space. Both of my girls have absolutely thrived at the nursery, and it is solely down to the staff and their dedication to the children. I have never had any problem in the three years my girls have attended, and when my daughter leaves next year for school, I’m going to be completely gutted! There are many other opportunities at the nursery (prior to covid) which I loved, Spanish lessons, dance lessons, swimming lessons. Whenever I have needed to speak to someone about anything whether it be a bill or if my daughter is okay, the management is more than happy to assist with this and go above and beyond to ensure anything is dealt with. I could not recommend this nursery enough - it’s amazing!

I would definitely recommend this nursery as my daughter couldn’t by happier!

My son started at The Hollies earlier this month. I was impressed at the range of activities available for the children on a daily basis when being shown around the nursery. There is plenty of space for the children to be playing, and they also get time to play outside every day, provisions are made for poorer weather conditions. The meals are freshly made on-site, and there is a wide variety on the menu. All the staff I have met are very friendly, approachable and seem to love their job. The manager is particularly warm and welcoming. I know if I have any questions/concerns of my own, I am able to ring her and speak to her about anything. My son is still adjusting to life in the nursery but seems to be having a blast while he is there, engaging with adults outside his family and the other children. His physical and mental development has come on in leaps and bounds since starting at The Hollies.

I'm so happy we found The Hollies for my daughter - she started around 18 months ago in preschool and has thrived there. Her confidence has come on in leaps and bounds which is every credit to the staff who care for her, all of them are lovely. They have handled the Covid situation so well in ensuring our children are well cared for and safe. They do so much to keep things 'normal' in these strange times. The food is perfectly balanced - healthy and nutritious, with the odd treat and they encourage outdoor play, whenever possible. I don't have any negative comments to add and I'll be sad when she leaves for school. It would be lovely to see some more pictures on the parents' app as it's so nice to see how much my daughter enjoys her time there.

Fantastic pre-school. My daughter absolutely loves it here, she will not want to go next year. Can not recommend enough! The staff are fabulous. The staff who now runs the Chorley on is a real credit, but everyone at the Chorley Hollies are so kind helpful and caring.

Our boys are very happy at the nursery and we really appreciate the extra lengths staff go to on their behalves to make their days as fun and educational as possible. They particularly enjoy all the arts and crafts activities.

Both my daughters have been at Hollies, one is still there and one left in September to start school, both girls really enjoyed it. We always found the staff to be very helpful and friendly, and always put the children’s safety and needs first. I would definitely recommend the Hollies nursery as a great place to send your children.

Both my children attended The Hollies from being the age of 8 months old, they both settled in really well and throughout each room, they were always well cared for and their needs were always met. They both formed very positive bonds with their key workers and all of the staff at the nursery. All staff were always very friendly and are always available to talk to. The Hollies has a very homely feel to it and I always felt reassured when leaving them in the care of others.

My son loves this nursery and as a parent, I couldn’t be happier with the progress he had made and the effort the team goes to, to make sure he’s developing well and ultimately having a great time. I was really nervous when he first joined, as my son is my first child and I’ve never left him so long before. Now he can’t wait to get there as he has so much fun and I am confident that he’s being well looked after. The nursery doesn’t hesitate to get in touch if they need to and you can ring at any time to put your mind at rest. Would highly recommend the nursery to anyone considering.

Our daughter started nursery in August this year, she only goes once a week, but despite this, she has settled in really well. It took her a few weeks to get used to going, but the staff at The Hollies have really helped to make sure that she settled as fast as she could. She's not yet old enough to tell us stories about what she has done throughout her day, but it's lovely to see her walk into the nursery when we drop her off with a big smile on her face, waving us goodbye. The only thing I would love to see more of is possibly photo updates throughout the day via WhatsApp as I know other friends' child's nurseries provide, but I understand that there is a learning book that can be accessed.

Both my sons have been at The Hollies one left and is now at school and the other is still there. The staff are great and do all they can for your child and you. I have no problems in recommending this nursery.

My daughter is very happy at the nursery and the staff are lovely. Thank you. I would recommend The Hollies to anybody. One thing I would like to change is for the children to be taken out on walks in the wood ect. I was told this would happen with the old manager and it hasn’t happened.

The staff have made my daughter feel welcome and she loves going to nursery. My daughter does a variety of activities to help her continue her learning and development. We love listening to her stories of what she had done at nursery each day. Thank you to her keyworker and the pre-school team for all you do for her. I would definitely recommend The Hollies.

I would highly recommend this nursery. All the staff are fantastic and you can really tell they love their job and being with the children and you can tell the children love being with them.

We are very happy to have our son attend The Hollies Nursery and would highly recommend the nursery and very caring staff!

The staff at The Hollies are so welcoming and friendly, our daughter settled in quickly and always looks forward to the days she goes to nursery. Communication with parents is excellent and the range of activities available to children is apparent each morning when dropping them off. Parents are informed of the activities their child has completed at the end of each day. Aside from developing all-round skills, it is clear to us that our daughter has bonded with the staff at nursery and feels secure there, which was paramount to us when choosing a setting.

The manager always has time to talk through any worries or concerns we may have.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 9 months old. When she started she was very shy and clingy and shed a few tears when dropped off. The Hollies nursery staff were so comforting to her that now when we drop her off she’s really happy and joins in with the rest of the children straight away. The staff are fantastic and encourage development and we are thrilled with how she is coming along.

Excellent staff, very friendly and helpful, always smiling, putting children's needs first and treating them as individuals. The members of staff I have the pleasure to deal with are always going the extra mile. My son is always excited when talking about the nursery and has learned a lot there. I strongly recommend The Hollies.
