My son has been attending Stonehouse since May, and my husband and I have been so impressed with everything. The staff are so lovely and helpful, nothing is ever too much trouble, and we feel very content that our son is safe and being well looked after. We’re also very impressed with the quality and
variety of the meals he gets! We’re very happy with the choice of nursery for our son and would highly recommend it.

My little girl has loved coming to Stonehouse for the following reasons:
1. The staff are just absolutely gorgeous! They have been so caring, and I know they know my little girl inside out!
2. She enjoys the play and activities. She is never bored!
3. She loved the food! Fussy at home but loves
nursery food.
4. The cuddles!
Thank you for everything, and we are sad to be moving. I would recommend this nursery to anyone!

Lovely staff, very accommodating.
Great communications made me feel very at ease on my little girl's first day.
Asked about preferences and routine, which made me feel like they were actually interested in my baby.

My son is currently at Stonehouse and has been for over a year now. He started in babies and since moved up to toddlers! I can not fault anything they have done in the whole time he has been there! They have a fantastic team, and everyone who has worked with my son has been amazing! Nothing is ever
too much hassle for them! Thank you so much, Stonehouse!

I would highly recommend Stonehouse Nursery to all of my friends and family, and strangers too!
My son has been there for over two years and is now coming to the end of his nursery journey and is ready for “big school”.
All the staff have been beyond incredible - they are highly trained and amazing
with the children. No request has ever felt too much.
The nursery has fantastic resources, and the interests of the children are of paramount importance. Please do take a visit; you will not be disappointed!

Amazing nursery and great staff, all very welcoming and helpful and everything you need is included in the fee, so you don't need to remember to bring anything! They also have a huge outdoor space, the biggest I have seen, so it's great for the children to get outdoors.

Stonehouse is an amazing, nurturing environment for all children. I’d like to say a very special thank you to one of the most caring nursery workers. She works extremely hard in the baby room and has formed a great bond with my baby daughter, who started here at just 10 months old. They all work tirelessly
to ensure the children are happy and well cared for.

My child loves going to Stonehouse; she has made lovely friends and loves all the teachers and all the activities they do.
She has become a social, happy little girl.
The teachers communicate well with me about my daughter's day.

Fantastic nursery. My son loves it there. They do a variety of activities every day, develop their skills and lead children to independence. My son is bringing home good manners and is rapidly developing his vocabulary, and I can see he behaves with respect to other children when we are on playgrounds
thanks to the nursery. Staff engage closely with parents and do their best to meet parents' requests. The nursery has several playrooms for each age group and a large outdoor play area, which is used frequently.

I wouldn't send my son anywhere else. He absolutely loves going into nursery so much that he pushes me out the door in the morning. He adores all those that are involved in his care, and I know all the nursery practitioners adore him or he wouldn't be the way he is. Every single one of the staff is
brilliant - nothing is ever too much trouble for them, and they are so approachable. My son is always doing some sort of activity, and they are happy to help a first-time mum with ideas of how to go about things when I ask. I am so grateful to them all.

Our little boy started in December 2021. He loves the nursery and all of the staff. We are overall very happy with the level of care he receives there, but there have recently been a couple of shopping errors with his dietary requirements - not a major issue, but not ideal. We would also like to see
him do more activities and bring things home with him than what he currently does.

My daughter and son both attend Stonehouse Nursery, and they both absolutely love it. My daughter has additional needs, and the staff can't do enough for her, always willing to go the extra mile to help her achieve her full potential. She is absolutely thriving, and a lot of that is thanks to Stonehouse.
They have been amazing meeting her needs since the day she started. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

My baby started to go to nursery when he was 9-weeks-old, and he has enjoyed it there. Every day, when I went to get him, they do tell you what happened during his day, and they do keep your baby’s routines. All staff are passionate and friendly with children, well knowledgeable. An absolutely brilliant
nursery in the area!

Stonehouse is a fabulous place, our son has thrived since he began attending three years ago. He looks forward each time he goes and always has fun. They are extremely approachable and friendly.
Also, my daughter attended over 17-years ago, and now her daughter goes there.
Always available to speak
about the kids days and are open and honest. Throughout this tough time, the staff have been amazing, teaching the kid's safety without scaring them as nurses we are happy that our children attend this nursery.
Communication is brilliant, and we are kept informed at all times where the kids are up to in their learning.

My son started at nursery when he was 6-months-old, and the progress we have seen in him in 6-months has been amazing, thanks to the staff at Stonehouse. As he was born in lockdown, the nursery is his only time to play and interact with other children. He absolutely loves the staff, and they are so
kind and friendly. They make you feel welcome and spend a lot of time getting to know each child. We are updated weekly with photos and assessments of how he is progressing which is great.
I would highly recommend Stonehouse to anyone looking for a nursery!

My son has been going here since he was 9-months-old, and he loves going and playing with all his friends. We never have any issues sorting things out when we need to, especially when covid happened and everything was up in the air. My son loves the staff members and his key worker is lovely, we always
get as much information as possible from them about his day eg, how long slept for and what he has eaten. He is nearly ready to go to the next room, and has learnt so much while being there already, so we cannot wait to see what the next stage brings.

I am so glad I chose to send my child to Stonehouse. The staff are so lovely, and nothing is any trouble for them. I was extremely nervous and anxious about leaving my child with anyone, due to giving birth in lockdown and my son not being used to other people other than me and my partner. On his first
day, I think I was more emotional than him as he loves it and can not wait to get in once he arrives. He loves seeing other faces and playing with the other children. The staff are constantly keeping me updated on his progress, and I feel so comfortable leaving my child knowing he's being cared for and the staff adore him.

I am happy with the care and attention paid to my child. He is happy and content at his nursery, and all the adults are great. He's just moved into the toddler room, and he loves it.
I am very protective of my son, and the staff at the nursery understand and help me to know he is safe and well looked
after; I can see this when I pick him up. He's happy, confident and says goodbye to the adults in his room.


He's only there one day a week, and it's lovely to see him grow.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.273)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.273) out of 10 for Partou Stonehouse Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 12 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 12 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 4.806 for Partou Stonehouse Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (116 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 144 Ratings = 4.806
  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 4.467 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Stonehouse Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 12 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.8
    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 90 number of registered child places is 18. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 18 = 0.667
  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.
