My son has attended this nursery since he turned 1. He's gone from the baby room-tinies-toddlers and he's now in pre-school.
The nursery itself has a lot of educational activities to suit each child and age range, not forgetting the lovely sensory room which has fishes and a ball pit!
The nursery offers extra curricula classes for children to try from music, dance, Spanish and Forrest school.
You get daily updates on what your child has eaten, done each day and you also get updates/photos on your parent app to view.
Each meal is prepped and made fresh on a daily bases by the lovely cook Sue - who has a 5* rating! She also provides recipes for you to take home and try, should you wish and a menu for each season.
The managers are a big help and provide support/guidance to ensure each child is supported with their speech, language and development.
I can't recommend this nursery enough.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that your son has enjoyed his journey through our nursery and benefited from our nurturing environment and engaging curriculum. Our dedicated staff and the delicious meals prepared by Sue truly make a difference in the quality of care we...
Really can't fault bluebells at all! My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery she is so excited to go each morning and runs through the doors! She has been attending since July 2025 and is thriving! The staff are so lovely and helpful. Couldn't recommend this nursery enough to anyone and feel very lucky that my child attends!!
Thank you for your kind review. It’s wonderful to hear how excited your daughter is each morning and how confidently she runs in day. We're excited for every moment ahead!
I have had two children at Bluebells and they have both absolutely loved their time here. My little girl learnt so much and came such a long way before starting school. My little boy is currently in the tinies room and I can't wait to see how he progresses! The extra curricular opportunities for the children are fab and there's a wide range of them so that the children are able to access at least one throughout the week. The staff are friendly and loving to the children and make you feel so comfortable with leaving your precious cargo in their care!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that both of your children have enjoyed their time at Bluebells. Our goal is to create a fun and educational environment for all children. Our team takes great care of all our little ones, and we are grateful for your trust in us. Thank you for choosing Bluebells!
When my son first started he couldn't say a lot of words or put them into sentences he has autism and since being at the nursery he has thrived he has been talking a lot more and trying to say whole sentences the whole team of teachers have been brilliant with him
Thank you so much for sharing your kind words! We are delighted to hear about your son's progress and how our team has supported him. We are dedicated to providing a nurturing and inclusive environment for all children in our care. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
My son started at Bluebells in April 2025 when he was just over a year old. He settled into the nursery quickly and soon bonded with all the staff in the baby room. The staff quickly learnt his routine, his likes and dislikes and how to comfort him. I instantly felt at ease with leaving my child with them. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and so loving towards my child and other children in their care. My son has recently moved into the Tinies room and their exemplary care has continued. The daily updates are well detailed, letting me know exactly what my son has done and eaten throughout the day and the updates on the app are frequent. My favourite thing about bluebells so far is their extra curricular activities, they offer sensory classes and music classes for children my sons age and even a mobile farm that comes to visit. My sons loves it and after attending their regular stay and plays I can see why. I highly recommend bluebells to anyone looking for a nursery.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We are thrilled to know that your son has settled in well and is thriving at Bluebells. Our team takes great pride in providing exceptional care to all the children in our nursery. We are glad that you appreciate our extra curricular activities and daily updates. Thank you for recommending us.
Our son is settled there, he is happy and we know he is being well looked after by staff members. He comes home happy and always loves telling us about his day! He has made friends there and enjoys spending time with the ladies in Toddlers.
We have good communication through the app. My husband and I can see what he has been doing during the day, what he has eaten and toileting. Staff are friendly and approachable, they go above and beyond to ensure children are safe and well looked after.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We are thrilled to hear that your little boy is happy and settled at Bluebells. Our staff takes great pride in providing the best care for your child and we are happy to hear that you have noticed the effort we put into communication and keeping your child safe.
I highly recommend Partou Bluebells nursery.
Thank you for your kind words! Our team at Partou Bluebells nursery is dedicated to creating a safe and happy environment for all children. We are thrilled to see your daughter's progress and we look forward to continuing to support her growth and development. Thank you for recommending us, it means a lot to us! ??
I was worried about my daughter starting nursery as she has never been in a nursery setting. Partou Bluebells have such amazing staff they made me feel so welcomed when i first brought my daughter in, and reassured me she will be fine, and i have to say she has been since! My daughter has done so well being in tinies, she's interacting a lot and made really good bonds with the staff. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking to put their child in.
Thank you for your kind words! We are committed to making the transition to nursery smooth and comfortable for both you and your child. It brings us so much joy to hear that your daughter has settled in well and is thriving in our Tinies program. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to continuing to provide a nurturing and engaging environment for your little one.
We also really like the extra curricular clubs they offer which differ between the different rooms. My son is currently doing Forest School and doesn't stop talking about it at home!
Information is shared using the ParentZone App and this is updated often. We enjoy seeing photos and reading about the milestones he's hitting whilst he's at nursery. They also do parents evenings which is a great time to speak to the key worker and find out if there's anything which can be worked on.
We love being part of the Bluebells family and we can't wait to start our journey again with our next baby!
Thank you for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that your son has had such a positive experience at Bluebells nursery. Our dedicated staff strive to create a nurturing and welcoming environment for all of our children. We are glad your family is a part of our Bluebells family and we look forward to welcoming your next little one into our nursery soon!
Both my daughters started at Bluebells when their previous setting had an unexpected closure and I strongly believe this has been the best thing that could have happened for them. My eldest daughter was in Bluebells for 2 years and absolutely loved it - she was so ready to start school. She had an amazing relationship with her teachers who pushed her to be the best she can be and gave her a wealth of opportunities and experiences. She especially enjoyed the many trips she went on in her final year at pre school. My youngest daughter has been there since she was 10 months. She has had a really positive experience in all 3 rooms; forming friendships with staff and peers. She comes out happy each and every day. She eats well and is offered a varied diet. The extra curricular opportunities are exceptional - My 3 year old knows better Spanish than me and spends every Friday morning exploring the great outdoors with Forest School. Thank you for everything you do.
Thank you for your praise and kind comments about our team and we're happy you found our staff to be so supportive during your experience here at Partou Bluebells Day Nursery & Pre-school. We're delighted to hear you had such a positive experience with our team! Thank you, and have a fantastic day!
My daugther has been at the nursery since she as 1 year old, we choose the nursery due to location but once we had a look round and our daugther settled in, they looked after her like their own, our daugther enjoys going and gets upset on non nursery day, I can not fault the staff they always have the children at heart, I would always recommend this nursery to others.
Thank you so much for your kind words! As a team, we strive to create a warm and nurturing environment for all the children in our care. We are so happy to hear your daughter enjoys coming to our nursery and we truly appreciate your recommendation. It means the world to us!
Both our children love attending Bluebells. We currently get to experience both Pre School and tinies but our eldest has been there since baby room. The support and encouragement both of them receive is outstanding. The majority of staff care and love our children as if they were their own and the SLT team is second to none. The staff member in Preschool has supported us so much through extra support and SEN meetings. One member of staff's enthusiasm and positivity is infectious. Two members of staff's caring nature in tinies and babies made us feel happy leaving our smallest when that can feel so daunting and another member of staff was exactly who we needed to support our eldest's journey through toddlers. We would recommend Bluebells time and time again!
Thank you for your amazing review! We are thrilled to hear that both of your children love attending Bluebells. Our team works tirelessly to provide outstanding support and encouragement, and we are so glad that you have noticed their hard work. It makes us proud to know that our staff has made a...
The staff are just amazing with my little boy, he was slightly unsettled at the beginning and they have made him really settle in, he goes to them like friends with big smiles on his face.
On collection I get such a thorough handover of his day, he eats the most delicious food, wish I could have it!
I'm that happy I've added an extra day to his weeks as I know he is in the perfect hands and is super happy.
Thankyou bluebells team!!
thank you; we appreciate your feedback! We're glad to hear we deliver such a great experience. If there's anything further we can do for you, we are happy to help!
My little girl is in the Tinies room at this nursery and can honestly say she loves it. She is excited to go and so happy after being there. I spent 18 months never away from her, so I was worried when we decided to put her in nursery but she absolutely loves her key workers and I'm so happy in the way they support and care for her. A big thank you to all the staff who work there. We would highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you for your kind words! We are so glad that your little girl loves her time at our nursery. Our staff strives to create a nurturing and fun environment for all of our little ones. Thank you for choosing us and recommending us to others!
Our daughter loves this nursery! She is so excited to get there in the mornings. The ladies are amazing with her and you can tell they really care about the children. Since our little girl has started going here she has developed so much, we can really see the hard work that everybody puts in.
Thank you for your kind review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team here at Bluebells Private Day Nursery! Thank you again for leaving us this response!
I am very proud that my daughter found a nursery that would instil the same values we share as a family.
We are so pleased you enjoyed your visit to Bluebells Private Day Nursery! Thank you for leaving us this response.
Our son has additional needs and nothing has ever been too much for Bluebells Private Day Nursery, their SENCO is absolutely amazing.
The activities they do with the children are great and they have such a good sensory room and big enclosed outside space available. They play outside in all weathers so I'd definitely recommend them to any parents with a child that's very outdoorsy.
The rooms always seem to be very clean and safe. Their menu has lots of varied, healthy options with a different choice every day throughout the month.
The prices they charge for what you get are very reasonable and they allow you to stretch any funding hours across the whole year if you wanted to which is a big help.
We live a good couple of miles away but would recommend anyone local to consider Bluebells as I couldn't fault them at all.
Claire, thank you for your kind review; we are happy to pass along your comments to the team at Bluebells Private Day Nursery! Thank you and have a fantastic day.
Always go above and beyond for parents and children in their care, you are truly tret like one of the family and I can never be more greatful for everything you all done for Parker and for myself.
Amazing facilities, encourage growth and learning, cleanliness is to a very high standard, friendly and welcoming staff with a range of qualifications, and most of all family, we weren’t just a child under their care and a parent of that child, we was a small little family that communicated well and worked together as a team to fight for what Parker truely deserved in life.
Thank you to all Bluebells staff, I’m sure we will keep in touch!
My daughter has attended preschool and she is leaving for school this time. She has had the best time with lots of activities and she has come on leaps and bounds since attending this fabulous nursery. She has formed strong bonds with the staff who are so caring and they are so supportive with my child's emotional needs. Often my daughter doesn't want to leave when it's home time which in my eyes shows how much fun she has and how much she loves the staff. The nursery have also done some fantastic outings and she especially enjoyed when the farm and party bus came to nursery. She will miss you so much Bluebells but we will definitely come to visit in her new school uniform soon. Thank you for being a big part of my child's development and I cannot recommend this nursery enough.
My son has attended this nursery since May 2021. It has been an incredible journey for my son at Bluebells as he has additional needs and they have been a big part of his progress. It has been overwhelming to see him develop over the past 2 years due to the hard work and support put in by the manager and staff at the nursery. When we moved from Essex we looked around 4 different nurseries and even though Bluebells Nursery was quite a long journey for us we are so glad we choose this nursery. They have been a big part of our son's life helping his development and to see him now thriving is amazing. The bond my son has with the staff is heartwarming to see (even the chef) and he will really miss them. My son has allergies and they have always been very cautious and made sure he has a safe diet whilst at nursery and on trips. My older children previously attended 3 different nurseries and Bluebells Nursery has definitely stood out the most, it is the best in Preston! Thank you Bluebells!
