Partou Sycamore House Day Nursery & Pre-School occupies a characterful period property on Hadham Road, just a five-minute walk from Bishop's Stortford town centre and railway station, with on-site parking for safe and convenient drop-offs and pick-ups.
The quirky, homely building is a big part of what makes this nursery so special. Warm, characterful rooms help children feel comfortable and settled, and families often say it is the atmosphere that drew them to Partou Sycamore House in the first place. Children build strong bonds with staff and with each other, feeling confident enough to explore, try new things and get the most from their early years learning.
The team won Partou Team of the Year in 2024, and exceptionally high staff retention means children are cared for by familiar, consistent faces throughout their time at the nursery. That continuity builds deep trust between children, families and staff, with practitioners who know each child's personality, interests and next steps inside out.
The garden includes a vegetable patch where children grow their own plants and learn about where food comes from, linking naturally into freshly prepared nutritious meals served daily from a seasonal rolling menu. Nearby Castle Park and Sworders Field offer a wonderful green space for extending early years learning into the local community.
If you are looking for a nursery in Bishop's Stortford with a warm atmosphere, an award-winning team and a genuine focus on helping every child thrive, Partou Sycamore House Day Nursery & Pre-School is well worth a visit.

My son is 3.5 years old and has been attending Sycamore House for the past 1.5 years after we moved to the area. We originally chose the nursery for the location, the hours they open (7am-7pm no extra cost) and for the friendliness of the staff.
The manager and assistant manager go to huge lengths to benchmark their practices against others in the industry, and what's really lovely is they keep the parents in the loop with their findings and how they are going to implements these changes.
As a parent, I feel very informed of what activities my little boy has been up to in the week. The management team send out regular updates about what's been going on in each room and how certain actives benefit the children and their learning.
Overall, I am very impressed with the nursery and the staff. They really do care about the children who attend. My little boy loves going and sometimes when I pick him up, he gets upset with me and asks me to take him back to 'school'.
Hello Fiona,

My daughter has been at the nursery since November 2016. She has come on leaps and bounds being at Sycamore and hearing of all the activities they get up to on a daily basis is so exciting and has been amazing for her development. She is now a very confident little girl and loves going to nursery being only 18 months old seems mad but she gets excited when we pull into the nursery car park now. I would highly recommend Sycamore to friends and family for the overall care and time staff give to the children.

The staff are so warm and welcoming here. They really did help me to feel at ease when settling my baby in and reassuring me she was doing ok. Definitely would recommend to others. I love getting a feedback report everyday about what my little girl has been doing each day.

My daughter has attended Sycamore house since she was 9 months old and has moved from the baby room, to the toddler room and onto the 2-3 room seamlessly. The Key workers assigned at the different stages have been well suited and worked hard to accommodate her needs and development. She has progressed very well in this environment, in particular her good manners! The support she receives from the staff means she is happy and confident. As she can be at nursery for an 11 hour day is has been very important to us that she is so happy here.
Thank you for your review :)

Hello! My name is Sophie, I am the deputy manager at Sycamore House. I am a friendly, approachable and energetic person who enjoys supporting and caring for children of all ages. I love letting children's passions and interests grow, helping them in all areas of their development.
