Partou Chiltern Avenue Day Nursery & Pre-School

My daughter enjoys going to Daybreak. Staff seem attentive and observant. I have appreciated the regular parent's evenings where my daughter's development has been discussed with me. I find it would be helpful to be kept up to date of progress between these sessions, but understand in a busy nursery this isn't always possible. The staff are always friendly and welcoming.

We moved to Amersham in December last year and my daughter started this year. She has settled in very quickly and is extremely happy. We, too, are delighted with Daybreak and all the carers for providing our daughter with a safe, happy space. Thank you.

My son has been at Daybreak since October 2014, he absolutely loves nursery and I have found the staff very friendly, accommodating, open to suggestions and always trying to improve their facilities. my son adores the Mud Kitchen in Amersham Chiltern Avenue and will spend as much time playing in it come rain or shine.

The staff at Amersham Chiltern Avenue take pride in their jobs and want to ensure all of the children develop and are ready for pre-school or eventually school, with initiatives from serving their own breakfast, helping with table preparation for lunch and dinner, getting used to cleaning their teeth (with nursery supplied teeth brushes). Everything about learning is through play including writing and understanding letters and numbers.

They have Click it, French and Cooking lessons, which my son is excited to do each week .

The staff are all friendly and nothing is too much trouble for them and I always feel so important to them when I collect my son every day.

Staff are caring and look after her well and some staff have really gone the extra mile to nurture her.

The ladies who look after him are caring and attentive and all the staff know him and me and are lovely and friendly. My son does different activities every day and is getting exposure to things I would really struggle to do at home.

We would recommend Daybreak nursery to anyone without hesitation.

Both my boys have been at Daybreak since they were little and they have been very happy. My youngest is now in Big Sunshines and he's loving every minute. No matter which room I've been impressed with the love and care that has been shown to my boys. It's a loving, caring, nurturing and great learning environment. Thank you, Daybreak for helping my boys grow and develop.

The staff at Daybreak Nurseries Amersham Chiltern Avenue are fantastic- friendly, caring and very supportive of parents' wishes. The food is varied and prepared onsite which is great. They have a brilliant garden at the back and the children get plenty of fresh air. My son loves it and is always telling me stories about what they've been up to that day.

My son settled in really well at Daybreak Nurseries Amersham Chiltern Avenue and bonded with the care workers quickly. I felt confident he was being given the best care possible and they took time to make sure he was happy and having fun with lots of different activities. I’d definitely recommend the nursery to anyone looking for a place for their child.

Fantastic people, providing wonderful care, entertainment and learning for our twin girls. After 2 years, there's become a very obvious bond between the staff and our kids. They're also sticklers for all rules which is no bad thing. We are extremely happy with how this has worked out.

The staff have been very supportive of my son, who usually finds it hard to say goodbye to me in the mornings. They anticipate the problems we have, distract him and do it all before he gets upset. He has a wonderful day with them and usually doesn’t want to come home! It’s massively reassuring to know that he’s happy whilst I’m at work.

The support given to my child, myself and partner has been exceptional and kind. As well as working to very professional standards, issues are discussed very compassionately and if there is anything that the team can do to help, they will and are genuinely motivated to deliver the highest level of service and understanding. The sincerity taken in every aspect of the care they give (to parents as well as children) is much appreciated in the difficult world of being a working parent.

We are really happy with Amersham Chiltern Avenue and would highly recommend.

Excellent nursery, very accommodating they always find ways to help and support parent requests. Our daughter is very happy there and enjoys the activities.

I was very pleased with the level of care provided to my little one during the 12 months that he went to Daybreak Chiltern Avenue. The activities they put together were very good and the staff were very caring.

Daybreak Nurseries Amersham Chiltern Avenue is an excellent nursery. The staff are very welcoming, kind and caring towards the children and communication from the managers is excellent. They are very vigilant when it comes to safety and always communicate via telephone if my child has had a little bump or fall.

My son has experienced a wealth of learning opportunities and I have witnessed the high-quality practice of the staff. He loves pre school and has developed fantastic relationships with his key workers and other children. The nursery is really forward thinking and celebrates different events throughout the year, which contributes to the children's understanding of the world. There is also the option of having additional ICT/ French and cooking sessions. The nursery also operates an excellent transition policy when the children move up into the next room.

My son is happy, confident and growing in independence. I know he is having an excellent start to prepare him for school. I can't recommend Daybreak Nurseries Amersham Chiltern Avenue enough!

I have used Daybreak Nurseries (both Amersham sites over the years) to care for each of my children in turn since 2009. My youngest has recently left to start school. They have always made me feel that my children were safe and cared for. The staff have almost universally been warm and welcoming. Additionally, I have been amazed at the efforts and encouragement put into my children's development, and the teaching of EYFS. I feel that Daybreak provide extremely high quality, and therefore very good value for money, childcare.

A year ago, I would have wholeheartedly said that this nursery was outstanding and the place to send your child, however, my view has changed somewhat in recent months. Something in the culture of the nursery has changed! In my opinion, this nursery has suffered from a constant turnover of staff which, whilst this is relatively normal for the industry, I find concerning as the effect on the team is evident. There are a number of outstanding team members who have a visible natural affiliation with the children although, at times, even these stars have seemed disheartened. In my opinion, due to the recurrent staff changes, standards across the nursery have declined. I have to be clear that this is purely my opinion and may not reflect that of other parents.

We recently moved to the area and my daughter started at Daybreak. The staff were so caring and accommodating, helping us every step of the way to ensure we all felt comfortable with all the changes in our lives. My daughter has settled in so well and is right at home there. Thank you to all the Daybreak staff.

We have been very pleased with our nursery having "moved up" from the previous nursery over the road (same company). Our two-year-old is happy to remind us that "I like preschool".

The staff are interested and attentive.
