Partou Little Big Steps Day Nursery & Pre-school in Knowle provides exceptional care and education for children aged 0 - 5.

The nursery has been based in the Park Centre for many years and with its redevelopment they have recently moved in to a spacious, new purpose-built building nestled within its grounds.

The nursery is divided into separate playrooms for different age groups - from the cosy baby room all the way up to the exciting pre-school and children of different age groups have their own outdoor play areas.

Little Big Steps provides a wide variety of fun educational experiences led by qualified teachers and childcare practitioners. The highly-qualified team prepare children for primary school using Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) guidelines.

The nursery's educators put a strong emphasis on learning through play and tailor activities to children's individual interests and needs. Staff have paediatric first aid and safeguarding training and all have undergone enhanced DBS checks.

Children at the nursery enjoy a varied seasonal menu filled with fresh fish, meat, fruit and vegetables – which can be altered to suit any special dietary requirements.

Staff are overall very caring. Children are involved in lots of different activities within and outside the nursery.
Communication with parents could be improved at times.

Review from Darja D (Mother of Child) published on 8 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Nursery staff are very friendly and easily approachable. Facilities are great, the only thing is a bigger garden for a 3-year-old group. It's also very convenient that you can drop my child just after 7 am, this has allowed me to extend my working hours and skip morning traffic.

Review from Michaela F (Mother of Child) published on 7 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
When the changes from paper to online learning journals are made, I think it would change my recommendation from likely to extremely likely.
It would be nice, to be able to settle your child when they are sad at drop off (you are able before 8 am) or to come in and collect from room so you can see
them in the setting but I understand the safeguarding behind this and again when the online journals are active, it will be reassuring to see them once they are settled or engaged.
Staff really get to know the children and at parents evening this is reflected in what they say. When children are unwell they take great care of them and communicate any medicine given.
They celebrate religious events from around the world which I personally love!
As my child loves outside space, I truly value the grounds they have and each room has it's own outdoor space. It will be fantastic when he is old enough to also enjoy forest school that is offered.

Review from Sam G (Mother of Child) published on 7 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son was initially very unsettled, he had never been left before and was upset by my leaving. All nursery staff were amazing at helping him feel safe. They communicated well with me to reassure both of us we were going to be fine. Only a month on, and my son has grown greatly in confidence and independence,
and very much enjoys his time at nursery.
He enjoys the activities provided and brings home a lot of lovely keepsakes.
When prompted, I get feedback about his day. I feel this is something that could be improved on. All staff are really busy, and at times, I feel they do not always have the time to discuss what my son has been up too during his time with them.
I am very pleased with his nursery and will be happy for him to stay there and progress up through their preschool until he is ready for school.
I have no worries about my son's safety and welfare and feel the nursery has my child's happiness at the centre of its care.
Thank you all.

Current Review Score: 8.2 (8.213)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.2 (8.213) out of 10 for Partou Little Big Steps Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.1 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.1 out of 5 from 7 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 4.106 for Partou Little Big Steps Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (59 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (14 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 104 Ratings = 4.106
  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 4.107 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Little Big Steps Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 7 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 = 3.7
    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 86 number of registered child places is 17.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 17.2 = 0.407
  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.
