The staff and setting here are absolutely brilliant. They have supported us every step of the way with the medical, emotional and developmental needs of both our children. The information given by staff is always detailed at the handover and they obviously know the children well and their interests.
I would recommend this nursery to anyone!

Kind- hearted, helpful, attentive staff and management, always make us and our child welcome. Meals are nutritious and a variety of fresh fruits are available. A huge, impressive garden with lots of space to run. Our son likes the teachers, the place itself and is always happy to go there. Sometimes
he would love to stay there much longer. You are amazing and your efforts are very much appreciated.

My twin girls started here nearly a year ago at 9 months old. I will admit that I was quite nervous about leaving them but they have fit in really well. The staff know what they are doing and have helped them come on with their development. My girls enjoy going and have created some special bonds with
staff members which puts my mind at rest leaving them. I wouldn't take them anywhere else.

My son started attending this nursery when he was 18 months. He settled in very quickly and has moved into the different phase rooms well. The management and staff are all friendly and approachable. The wide range of activities in the phrase rooms are age-appropriate and keep all the children busy and
stimulated (indoor and outdoor). The food is fresh and healthy, meeting varied dietary requirements. The nursery welcomes parents/families to open mornings/afternoons or Saturdays depending on themes. A quick daily update is great with detailed consultation offered every term. My son loves attending nursery. A fabulous start to his education journey. Thank you to all the staff for making it an enjoyable experience. Keep up the outstanding work.

A wonderful nursery that is meeting all the needs of my child.
Lovely approachable staff who will help with anything.
My child can’t wait to go and hides when it’s home time. He asks to go to nursery on the days he doesn’t attend which tells me a lot.

Wonderful nursery, my little one has been thriving there since I returned to work. All of the staff are incredibly warm, friendly and knowledgeable and have made Ashmoor a fantastic environment for babies, toddlers and preschoolers to grow, make friends, have fun and learn about the world around them,
all the time developing the skills they need before they go on to school. So lucky to have such a great nursery on our doorstep.

The manager and her team are fantastic leaders. They offer a wealth of childcare experience which is second to none. They show true passion and love the children like they're their own. The chef is fantastic, cooking a range of nutritional meals. These are on a 4 week rota and take into consideration
all major food groups required for a balanced diet. The facilities at Ashmoor are superb, ranging from quiet corners to the large outside play area which is utilised every single day, come rain or shine. Ultimately when I collect my son, I can see that he is happy and has been nurtured. He is always happy to say goodbye to me in a morning and really looks forward to the day ahead. I wouldn't have my child in any other private day care establishment.

Ashmoor is an amazing nursery. I'm so lucky that I found it. The others I looked around were cramped in comparison with dirty toys and overworked stressed staff, the contrast at Ashmoor was immediately apparent. The babies and children have space to play, clean toys, and consistent attentive kind staff.
Couldn't
be happier. My son was very clingy before he started so I was worried about how he'd do, but he has a lovely day there and doesn't even cry when I drop him off anymore!

One thing that drew us to Ashmoor was that the team seemed genuinely interested in the character and personality of our child before we had signed up, this was important to us when selecting a nursery. Our child has now been there since a young age and the team are great. We’ve found she has built strong
bonds with the team and her key worker and looks forward to going!

Ashmoor is an amazing nursery. The staff are fantastic, really caring and also highly professional and good at what they do. My son loves his days in nursery and loves being in the toddler room. It's in a lovely big old house, which makes it feel very homely and there is also a massive garden for the
children to play with lots of interesting areas and things to play with. It's a great outdoor space for them to enjoy. I love the range of activities they do - different things every day, even with the very little ones and lots of things that we would probably never get round to doing at home, painting, singing songs, role-playing games, building things etc. I was really nervous about sending my son to nursery at all, but him starting Ashmoor has been hugely positive and I am really pleased that he is going there.

Ashmoor is a warm, fun, stimulating place to be.


The staff really care about the kids, their individual needs and development, while the manager balances continual improvement with staying close to parents and children.


My kids have special dietary requirements - so everyone makes sure that

they are given alternatives without feeling left out. And I’m always told what they’ve eaten.


In fact, all the staff take the time to talk to me about my children, how they’ve been and what they’ve been doing. I’m confident that they really care - which really matters to me. I am happy, and trust that my girls are too (and they get to enjoy a massive garden!).

Our daughter has been at Ashmoor since April 2018 and she is very happy and developing well. When she first joined Ashmoor there were several internal changes with staff and management which caused us some concerns at first, however, we could not be more pleased with the changes. The new team are fantastic,
they clearly care about the children and want the best for them. The staff have got to know us very well and have built a really strong relationship with her. They organise a range of creative activities throughout the day for the children's learning and development and have introduced an online learning book where parents can see photos and videos of our children at nursery. The nursery seems structured and more organised and there is more regular interaction with parents. We see a bright future our daughter at Ashmoor.

My daughter loves going to this nursery. She found it difficult to settle in when she first started 5 months ago but it didn’t take long for her to settle in and the staff made sure we were both comfortable and happy with her being at nursery. The staff all clearly care about the children at the nursery
and I always enjoy getting the daily report on what my daughter has been doing. They do lots of different activities with her and she’s made great progress since starting. She’s much more confident and social than she was before she attended nursery. It’s great to know that she is in a secure and happy environment while I’m at work and she’s really flourishing. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Ashmoor nursery and its staff have exceeded far beyond my expectations!
My little girl has a great connection with all of the staff there and she thrives in their company and environment. She really enjoys going and the staff seem genuinely interested in helping her development and teaching her new
things.
I would definitely recommend Ashmoor nursery to others, it really is an excellent nursery and I have a lot of trust in the staff.

Both of our children attend Ashmoor and we couldn't be happier with the care and attention they receive from the wonderful staff. They take part in so many stimulating and exciting activities and we see them develop their skills every week. The new online learning journals are great and we enjoy seeing
pictures and videos of their nursery experiences. Our daughter will miss her Ashmoor friends and practitioners when she starts school in September but we are in no doubt she will be absolutely ready for the next step, and that the nursery has played a big part in getting her to that point.

Cleanliness requires attention in the Tweenies room.
Staff would benefit from training in more creative ways to corral children’s behaviour. (Hand in hand parenting offer very short Facebook tips.)
Structure of day in Big Gang and Tweenies is unclear.
As a parent, I’m not convinced the staff enjoy
the children.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.722)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.722) out of 10 for Partou Ashmoor Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.878 for Partou Ashmoor Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (139 Excellents x 5) + (15 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 156 Ratings = 4.878

  • b) 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 4.844 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Ashmoor Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 77 number of registered child places is 15.4. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.4 = 0.844

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
