Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My little boy joined the nursery at the age of three, following a split from his father we decided to split his nursery time between two nurseries. I was worried that he wouldn't settle but he has been made to feel so welcome. The whole team are extremely warm and friendly and have helped him settle
in perfectly. The staff in other rooms all know his name and all say morning, it's a warm friendly nursery and I would recommend to others and would also use again if I have any more children.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child started Storytimes in July, she settled in very quickly, she loves the staff and is very happy to be left at the nursery. She has lots of friends. Staff are very approachable and accommodating. The manager is visible in the nursery at all times and greets parents and children on arrival.


My

child is being challenged in her development. The pre-school room staff are always coming up with ways to get the children to engage in learning, in very fun and interactive ways. The activities are constantly changing. Parents are kept informed of their child’s development, what they are learning and eating. The children are offered homework, (parents preference) which prepares them for school. They go swimming which my daughter loves. All the food is homemade, which caters for any allergies. My daughter has started to eat new things and this is evident in the home too. I am very happy with the quality of care and attention she gets at Storytimes, this nursery is superb and it’s a lovely, friendly environment.

My daughter started in January 2018 and she was a year and a half on starting. It was based at their old premises and changed to their current building which is fabulous.
The girls are great in what they do and it's not an easy job as it is more than playing with the children. They help and guide
them in their development, I am starting potty training and they will implement what I do at home so that she will do the same there.


My daughter is so happy going on her days when we say let's go to nursery today, she shouts yeah and gets all excited. This shows that she very happy in her environment and with who looks after her. It is reassuring for myself as a parent that I am leaving her knowing she is happy to be there.


Management and staff are lovely and very helpful if there is anything is needed.

This Nursey is outstanding!!!


My four year old has attended from the start and he has developed so much in the last 6 month since the new nursery has opened.

They are amazing and have worked so hard with him in order get him to feel comfortable, we went through 3 years of him crying every morning

when he went to nursery, to now him not being able to wait to get there. He has grown in confidence and has some amazing bonds with all the staff.


I can really see how dedicated they are to these children and it has been wonderful to see, not only the children grow but also the staff there too. I can’t recommend it enough to someone, please go and have a look around and see for your self.


One very happy parent.

Very friendly staff who really value the children they work with. I have chosen to keep my little one at this nursery despite moving out of the area as I feel he’s well looked after, in a nice environment and with lots of activities to do. Thanks.

All the staff really friendly and very helpful if you have any questions. Go above and beyond to help with child's development and rooms are filled with activities aimed to improve a child's development and learning. I feel my child is safe and happy when at Storytimes and would not have him in any
other nursery!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Partou Storytimes Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 40 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 4.833 for Partou Storytimes Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (444 Excellents x 5) + (31 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 491 Ratings = 4.833
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Storytimes Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 40 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 80 number of registered child places is 16, which has been reached with 40 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
