This nursery is fantastic for my child. The staff are amazing and the setting is so child friendly and appropriate. I wouldn't want to send my child anywhere else. The activities they do are age appropriate and my child learns so much. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter absolutely loves attending nursery. She is thriving and becoming an amazing little girl, all thanks to the care and attention she gets from the staff. I cannot praise them enough; they are fantastic, so caring and patient. The activities they arrange each and every day are so kind and encourage
development. It's great. Thank you so much.

Our little one has come on leaps and bounds since starting Small World. The staff are friendly and approachable; I feel comfortable with them, and so does my little one. The meals are innovative and very nutritious. Our little one has started potty training, and the nursery has made it an easy process
and is on hand should I have any questions.

After a lot of research, we decided to place our daughter at Small World. We have only been here a short time, but the staff have gone above and beyond for my daughters. Very quick to make her feel welcome, and she loves it. Rooms are well-resourced, and the outdoor area really is the best bit! The
staff have been fab, with accommodating needs and supporting communication. I have loved to see my daughter thrive and be excited to come to school. I am very excited to see what the next year brings!

My daughter has attended the nursery for nearly a year now, and she settled in from the off. Everyone is so lovely and welcoming. If I ever have any concerns, I can call the nursery or speak to the staff. Nothing is too much trouble.
Five-star nursery in my eyes.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son loves going to this nursery everyday and the staff are fantastic with him. It’s been great from the start and they continue to provide excellent care on a daily basis.
Their weekly menu is great and my son eats a variety of healthy snacks and meals every day.
The staff are always kind, helpful
and so accommodating.
Everyday there are new activities, we love seeing the pictures on the app of him painting, exploring new things and loving being outside.
I would highly recommend Small World Day Nursery.

I’m really pleased with Small World Day Nursery. My daughter has developed well in her learning and confidence and is happy to go to nursery. The staff are all friendly and my daughter likes them all and loves to see the practitioners even those who no longer teach her age group. I feel well informed
about her development and areas where she’s doing well or needs to work on. Although she doesn’t always eat everything, she’s offered good varied meals and snacks. A good range of play and activities are great to see and I really like having access to the Blossom app so I can see what my daughter has done during her day.

My daughter loves going to nursery here. She talks about all her friends, the staff and all the activities they do with her. She's always excited to tell me about her days at Small World. My personal experiences with the staff are also great; they've always been extremely informative about everything
from the day-to-day things my daughter does all the way to her development and the plan to further her development. The management staff have also been great, always happy to help and keep me well informed. I always feel at ease, dropping my daughter off, knowing that she will have a great day and enjoy every minute of it! After all, that's the most important thing.

Review from Stuart C (Grandfather of Child) published on 15 November 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As a Grandfather of a child in this nursery, I felt compelled to share my views with everyone. The first thing you notice about this day nursery is the friendly, courteous atmosphere. If you happen to visit whilst the children are playing outside, you can't but notice how happy they all seem under the
constant supervision of the very capable staff. I know firsthand that the children experience laughter, friendship, education and discovery. The management is always providing new experiences and education, involving children in life skills like growing their own fruit and vegetables. My granddaughter, like many of the other children, will actually eat something she has helped to grow, which otherwise she wouldn't have tried otherwise. I would not hesitate to recommend Small World Day Nursery to any parent. A big thank you to all the management and staff.

Our daughter absolutely loves attending Small World. It is great to hear from the staff what activities she has been up to each day and to see how she is developing. She arrives smiling and is still smiling when we pick her up. The practitioners genuinely seem to love and care for her and this is reflected
by the affection she shows them. All of the staff are incredibly helpful and kind. I definitely recommend this nursery. Thank you to them all!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.947)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.947) out of 10 for Partou Small World 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.947 for Partou Small World Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (249 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 263 Ratings = 4.947
  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 Small World Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 22 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 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 92 number of registered child places is 18.4, which has been reached with 22 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.
