Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Ladybirds is a fantastic nursery. Our eldest child attended from when she was 9 months old (she is now 8) and our 3-year-old has also been attending since he was 9 months old. The staff are fabulous and always make us feel welcome. They are very attentive and make such a fuss over our son and our daughter
still when she comes with me to collect him. All queries and any issues we've had have been dealt with in a professional manner and resolved very quickly. We have worked alongside all our son's key workers in his development and discussed ways to make things such as potty training easier and what incentives to use to encourage him to reach little goals. The staff have always taken our suggestions and concerns into account. The stay and plays make us feel very involved and our little boy loves the dressing up days. Overall, we couldn't be happier with Ladybirds and are very pleased we chose Ladybirds as an educational and social starting point for both our children.

The Nursery staff are very caring and my daughter has been very settled at Ladybirds for the past 3 years.


My only suggestion for improvement is more advanced technology such as apps where parents can have easy access to photos, work and progress of their child.

Since my child joined Ladybirds family he became more confident, independent and learnt a lot of new skills. This place makes me feel very welcome and all the staff are very kind and friendly. I feel that my child is safe and looked after with the best care. I would recommend this place to everybody.
Thank you for all your hard work!

My kids love to go to this Nursery, sometimes they don't want to go home with me. This is the most important thing for me, that they feel like they're almost at home, loved and safe.
I would highly recommend it.
Thanks.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I’ve been using Ladybirds Nursery now for over a year for my son and just enrolled my daughter and I can honestly say it was the best decision I’ve made. He loves going to nursery and has made lots of new friends, my son loves the activities the nursery plans, there’s always something different but
educational each week. Ladybirds even captures these moments by taking photographs and uploading them for you to see (with parents consent). The staff are affectionate and approachable and have always reassured me with my two children. My children love the staff at Ladybirds and you can see why. With delicious meals and snacks and an enclosed garden, I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of our children have been extremely happy and settled within this nursery. We are always greeted with a friendly smile and made to feel very welcome. Extra attention has been dedicated to our children as and when they've needed it, or when they've missed their mum and dad. Both have come on
leaps and bounds with their confidence and their social and academic skills and their key workers have gone above and beyond to support them and find fun ways to encourage learning. This is a lovely nursery in beautiful surroundings. I feel proud to send my two here.

We have sent all three of our children to Ladybirds from months old to 4 years, since 2011 to now.
The staff are amazing and we put our full trust in them to love our children in the same way we do as parents. The managers are fab and all three of our children love them to bits!

Review from Victoria C (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Friendly staff, tend to be on the younger side, a few more experienced staff may help improve things further. The outdoor space could be improved with more activities. My girls have been in Ladybirds for almost a year when they first started here the food was good. Around November it took a bit of a
nosedive and they seemed to be fed beans on toast most weeks on the days they attend. More recently the food does seem to be improving again. The car parking facilities recently have been very bad due to overcrowding/bad parking, it is also not very well lit.

Outstanding nursery with fantastic staff!


Our daughter has multiple dietary needs/requirements but the staff have been nothing short of fully supportive and accommodating to these needs.


Staff are professional, friendly and very approachable. No problem is too trivial and is always met with an

understanding ear.

After 3 years at home with me, my children started nursery. We were all apprehensive and anxious about such a huge change. We needn't of worried. The staff are wonderful, approachable and so friendly. They provide fantastic learning experiences and give feedback every day. Ladybirds provide a healthy
and varied menu which my children thoroughly enjoy. Staff are sympathetic to the needs of my children each morning as they still have separation anxiety, however, this is now short-lived. My children tell me of the care and attention they receive each day. I am so impressed by all aspects of Ladybirds. My children are very lucky.

I have recently enrolled my son at Ladybirds, he has settled in very well. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Being a working parent, my son also attends pre-school and it is extremely hard to find childcare which provides a wrap around service. Ladybirds provide this, which I am extremely
thankful for.
The setting is very nice and my son looks forward to attending nursery.
Thanks Ladybirds!

We have only had extremely positive experiences with Ladybirds Private Day Nursery, Methley. The keyworker consistently goes above and beyond what is necessary to ensure both my son and ourselves feel happy and supported. I feel 100% safe in the knowledge that my son is being well looked after. I think
he has come on leaps and bounds since starting nursery. I am so grateful to the keyworker and the staff for making this such an enjoyable experience for the whole family.

Ladybirds Nursery is a lovely set up. The majority of staff have been there since I first sent my son to Ladybirds in 2009. The rooms and outdoor area are set out lovely. Any problems or concerns I have has have always been dealt with immediately and always satisfactory. I would highly recommend Ladybirds
as a warm, caring nursery with lovely staff.

Our children love coming to nursery so much so sometimes they don't want to come home and that is the best things about it. The wrap around care with the local school is brilliant but I think the fact that each child is known by every member of staff is fantastic and they know they can ask anyone for
help. The outside space is great and was part of the reason we chose Ladybirds. The children love playing in all weathers.

My son loves going to nursery. He has developed friendships with many of the other children and I fully believe that it is the staff at Ladybirds that help these friendships to grow and develop. My son's social skills are fantastic, again I believe the staff work hard to bond with the children, understand
them and then support them. I can ask my son at the end of each day what he's been doing and I can tell he's been learning all day long.

Both of my daughters have attended Ladybirds and we've always been very happy with the care they have received. It's very hard to send off your baby to be cared for by someone relatively unknown but the staff, always helped greatly with this. We get daily updates on what they do and what they eat and
it always sounds delicious or fun. The staff form great relationships with the children and I've been impressed with how they include us as parents and the wider family too.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.972)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.972) out of 10 for Partou Ladybirds Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.972 for Partou Ladybirds Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (455 Excellents x 5) + (13 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 468 Ratings = 4.972
  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 Ladybirds Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 39 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 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
    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 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 39 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.
