Partou Chiltern Avenue Day Nursery & Pre-School

Lovely nursery. We joined last minute when I went back to work a bit suddenly. The staff did everything possible to make the transition easy for me and the baby. That was over a year ago now. They continue to be a wonderful and accommodating bunch, especially the nursery manager. They are always bending over backwards to help and deal with our, sometimes, picky requests! They have also had great communication and procedure with COVID-related matters. My daughter doesn't even look back to say bye when I drop her off. She loves it!

I would highly recommend this nursery!

Our son has made such fantastic progress in many different areas since joining Daybreak in November. The staff are incredible, so friendly and helpful. We can't recommend the nursery enough!

My daughter loves going every morning. She has come on leaps and bounds in every area. Well done to the fabulous team at Daybreak. Thank you!

The setting is great with a recent refurbishment and they have a great outside space that they use daily. All of the staff are friendly, approachable and caring.

Daybreak has great facilities, is lovely and bright and always clean. I would have no hesitation in recommending Daybreak to other families.

We have just enjoyed the Christmas carol concert which was well organised and lovely to attend.

My little girl stared at Daybreak when she was 10 months old. The settling period was so helpful. She had time in the nursery with me and without, and her main carers visited her at home so they understood her better and they were familiar to her. She has really loved her time at Daybreak and has travelled from baby room through Little Sunshines in the preschool. I have to say I have always felt the staff really care about her. They have all made an effort to know her and go the extra mile. The emergency days have also been so helpful as I work a shift pattern and at times have needed time not in her usual hours. Thank you so much to all.

My son has been at Daybreak for over a year now. He has settled well thanks to the staff and is very happy at the nursery. He has fun and has been learning lots too. The blossom app is great - I love seeing the pictures of what he's been up to! Would highly recommend.

I have two boys, my youngest is now in Big Sunshines and my eldest left Daybreak in September to start school. Both my children have been with Daybreak since they were small(er), starting off at ATC.

The Blossom app is a great addition to the nurseries, meaning that as a parent you get more detailed (and photographic) information regarding their day but also means that the hand-over at the end of the day when you just want to get home is smooth and straight-forward.

My daughter has been very well supported and has come out as a confident little girl ready for school. Thank you Amersham Chiltern Avenue team.

Daybreak is a fantastic nursery. My son has some speech and learning issues and all the staff have gone above and beyond in order to support him. The staff are friendly, approachable, and so very caring. The days are well structured, educational and fun. This is a brilliant setting to prepare pre-school children for the transition to 'big school'. Best choice I could have made for my child!

My son has recently transitioned to the Little Sunshine’s room, he has settled well, the staff are caring, attentive and their activities are engaging. I really like the parent app and enjoy receiving daily updates as I have little contact with dropping off and picking up. This really helps with communication. The management team are always helpful and the staff too.

The nursery staff are fantastic. They manage to strike the perfect balance between play and education. They also have a clear set of rules and have clearly planned the day in advance so that the children are always fully engaged. The plethora of food served is also first class.

We have been very happy with our daughters time in the 'Little Sunshine's Room'. The carers really care for her and have taken time to invest in her learning and development. We like the activities planned and there appears to be more effort recently in planning arts and crafts activities and also local outings which our daughter has enjoyed. She has recently had some health problems but her key carer and manager have been excellent in managing this and reassuring us in the event that she became unwell at nursery with a robust structured health plan.

I would like the owners of Daybreak to look at their fee structure, as they charge a top-up fee for parents using the 15 and 30 hours government funded childcare. I completely understand the reasons behind this, but it does make Daybreak expensive compared to other local childcare facilities.

Our daughter has been with Daybreak for over 2 and a half years now and has really enjoyed her time there. She is always very happy to go in the mornings, has made lots of friends and talks about what she has done each day with enthusiasm. The staff are really friendly and helpful, giving excellent updates on her development. Overall, we are really pleased with Daybreak and would highly recommend it.

I see changes in my daughter which is lovely to see. My daughter always talks about nursery and she is happy and so am I. Wouldn't have chosen a better nursery for my daughter really happy I appreciate the nursery and what they all work so hard made it what it is today. My daughter really enjoys the fresh food they have an on-site chef always cooking different food which is nice. My daughter even does top banana cooking she really likes this every week.

Overall, I am happy to recommend the nursery.

Very well organised and executed sports day where children and parents alike enjoyed it thoroughly. Very well done Daybreak team.
