I wanted to leave another review of Safehands as I have just settled in my third baby there. Whilst I was anxious about settling her due to her over clingy-ness that developed due to Covid-19, I couldn't have asked for a more smooth transition. I'm so so happy with how it went. During her first week,
she attended nursery for a few hours on the days she would be going, and she absolutely loved it. The baby room Head of Section is her key worker and she really made me feel at ease during her settling in sessions. I didn't feel rushed at all, and I left when I felt comfortable. As I was leaving, I saw my daughter and her key worker in such a lovely moment - they were both fully engaged with each other and I felt so relieved. She loves going, eats SO much, naps well, and comes out beaming each day. I have been going to Safehands for four years now and couldn't imagine anyone else looking after my children. They really are in safe hands and I'm so so thankful to the whole team.

A fantastic nursery, all the staff make the children feel welcome and involved, the staff always greet you with a positive attitude and a big smile my children love to go to nursery. They have a variety of play and learning with lots of different ideas and tasks to challenge their development and individual
personalities. A fantastic range of healthy home-cooked food, the children are also encouraged to learn about different foods and get involved in baking. Lots of outdoor play and physical activities, overall a very caring environment. At the end of the day, parents are given a review of the children’s day and observations are loaded onto tapestry so we see what they have been doing, parents can also share what the children have been doing at home too. We have been extremely happy and seen our children thrive in their time at safe hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
August was the last month of a very happy three and a half years for my son at Safehands. A wonderful nursery and preschool with outstanding management. I couldn’t imagine sending my son anywhere else when he was that young. They are all more of a family than co-workers and that happiness in the staff
is a wonderful environment for the children. You just know that they enjoy working there. I could trust the staff which was paramount as being a parent that’s the most important thing for us when leaving our babies.

Both my children attend Safehands and have done so since they were very small. The staff at Safehands are incredible and a massive asset to the company, my children are always so so happy to go in, delighted to see their friends and their key workers. They are always doing fun and educational activities
with them and lots of outdoor play which is just great for my little ones and they eat like kings and queens thanks to the fantastic cooking. Couldn’t recommend enough.

My two children have been attending Safehands since they were babies. The nursery has a very welcoming homely feeling about it and the staff are all so lovely and caring.
My children love attending, they settled in quickly and have such fun during their time at Safehands doing many fun activities they
don’t get to do at home.

I cannot recommend Safehands enough! My daughter (nearly two years old) loves it, which is so reassuring and reduces the ‘mom guilt’ when I go to work!
A big thank you to all the team. The staff working at Safehands are such a pleasure to be around and so great with the children!

Review from N M (Mother of Child) published on 2 March 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Safehands is a really friendly and happy nursery environment for my two children, ages four and one.
They offer different rooms so that the children are surrounded by similar ages. Nap times are in prams which my husband and I really like as it means our baby has the comfort of her own pram and sleeps
really well. They also get lots of fresh air.
They also have a no-shoe policy which we love as it means the nursery floor appears a lot cleaner.
My older child also has an allergy and the nursery has been good at accommodating his needs.
The staff are all really friendly and caring, and the manager is really proactive and responsive to any queries or issues raised.

Excellent nursery with very welcoming and approachable staff. The staff genuinely care about the children and take the time to build positive and supportive relationships with both parents and their children. My little girl has been happy here from day one, I know how much she enjoys her time at nursery
and thrives from the fun and diverse activities.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.904)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.904) out of 10 for Partou Safehands 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 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.904 for Partou Safehands Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (161 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 178 Ratings = 4.904
  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 Safehands Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 15 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 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 15 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.
