My granddaughter has been attending the nursery for several months now and enjoys every minute there. Her teachers are fabulous with such strong attachments with the children and parents. They are caring and friendly and really passionate about bringing the best out of the children. Since my granddaughter
has started she has been glowing, growing and meeting all of her next steps. We are so proud of the development she is making at Apples and Cherries Day Nursery. There are not enough words I can use to describe how amazing and nurturing the nursery is. I would thoroughly recommend it to any parent.

Excellent nursery with phenomenal staff. My little one is super excited to go in each morning. I highly recommend this nursery. Communication is excellent and as a mother of a child with allergies, I have not had any concerns with the level of care and attention my child receives.

The environment was warm and welcoming and the staff were very friendly and reliable. So many smiles that literally made me understand why my niece is so happy here. The attention to detail is really what caught my eye and I’m under no illusion that my niece is getting the care she deserves here. The
owners and team clearly take pride in what they do. Everything was so clean and sparkling. Thank you so much Apples and Cherries Day Nursery.

We have been with Apples and Cherries since opening until my son went school. So he spent 3 years there. It's the best nursery staff that I ever saw in my child's life. They give full care and education to all kids. From babies to toddlers. The Management is amazing. They will make sure your child gets
all as per his needs. My child was so happy every day since he entered the nursery. Apples and Cherries you are the best! My son will miss you always.

My nephew went to Apples and Cherries Day Nursery for a year, throughout this time the nursery was absolutely spectacular, the staff were so thoughtful and caring for all his needs, the difference in him as an individual is something I cannot put into words, we went from being worried about his developmental
needs however he has now grown into a very bright little boy with the help of Apples and Cherries staff, the nursery goes above and beyond with all aspects, from caring to hygiene as well as their safeguarding principles. Having searched for the right nursery for a long time I feel we made one of the best decisions. Not only does the nursery focus on educational needs they never fail to ensure their children have good understanding and independence of basic life skills. The communication between staff and families is excellent, we were well informed about all aspects of our little ones journey and how well he was progressing. I cannot recommend this nursery enough!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My child is thriving at Apples and Cherries and they enjoy going to the nursery. I know this because when I mention their keyworkers name they smile and get very excited. My child willingly takes their hand at handover and goes in without a fuss. My child has been exposed to so many different food cuisines
where they were quite restricted in their food choices I find is now open to trying many different dishes. My child started at the nursery with a very limited vocabulary but has grown so much in the little time they have been at the nursery and is rather a chatterbox now. I love the variety of activities they do and how it’s linked with real life; recently they held the Olympics. My child loves baking and now joins in at home too. The staff seem to genuinely enjoy their roles, I always feel like they treat my child as the most important person in the world. Don’t know how they do it but that is how they make me feel.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Apples and Cherries, I feel, is outstanding. I can not fault it at all. They look after and care for all the children like they are their own. My son started in October 2020 and I can see such a difference in his ability from then until now. They learn so much here through so many different activities.
The education is second to none. My son loves his time at nursery and often talks about his friends and his teachers. He is also eating things that he would not eat at home as they have such a variety of well balanced meals. We are also informed every day about what they have been learning about, activities they have been doing, and what they have eaten that day.
I feel very comfortable leaving my son at Apples and Cherries as I know he is in very safe hands. I can not recommend this nursery enough.

Apples and Cherries nursery helped my twins in their overall development. The staff is very friendly and approachable. We were regularly updated about our boys' development and how they are learning new things every day. We can see the big and positive difference nursery made in our boys' personalities.
Our boys just started school and miss their teachers back in nursery. Big thanks to the manager and team.

Apples and Cherries Day Nursery has been no less than a 'God-sent' nursery. The staff all the way from the directors to the managers and teachers have been phenomenal. They continue to exceed expectations in terms of child welfare, hygiene, education, happiness, and well-being. I have no words to describe
how wonderful the nursery and its members are. It is an asset to my little one. I would recommend this nursery have a 7* rating. Thank you all at the nursery for your continuous support in ensuring my little one glows and grows every day.

Apples and Cherries is a brilliant nursery that I will highly recommend to everyone. My son was well cared for there and looked forward to coming to the Nursery every day despite his global developmental delay. Management and Staff are welcoming and go the extra mile in providing a nurturing environment
that gives children a great start in education. Daily communication on your child is superb and so is the communication with the highly skilled Management with great knowledge and expertise in supporting children’s learning. The keyworker system at the Nursery is fantastic and you can be reassured that they really get to know your child and treat him as an individual. My son was supported to access learning that is adapted to his needs and he made great progress in his learning and development. We were sad to leave but transition is always well planned to move the child on. I have nothing but praise for this nursery and I couldn’t have chosen a better preschool experience for my son.

This nursery is outstanding in all aspects, from the staff, care provided, and the nursery environment. Both my daughters attended this nursery and not only did they love going but they flourished. I was delighted with their learning and progress throughout their time there. The staff really care for
the children and provide the best, holistic care and education. The nursery is very well resourced and is very clean and organised! There is also excellent communication between staff and parents and I always felt informed about both my daughters' progress and learning goals etc. I have visited many, many nurseries in London and this by far is the best one! Cannot praise the nursery enough and would recommend Apples and Cherries Day Nursery 100%. Thank you.

I went to visit the nursery before it even had children attending, all the staff made both my boys feel so welcome, loved and wanted the minute we arrived. On these grounds I decided that this was the nursery for the boys to attend, the array of toys, outside equipment was amazing and I loved that they
encouraged teeth brushing while at the nursery too. The boys loved apples and cherries from the moment they started, there was not one tear when I dropped them off each morning. The staff make the children feel so special and loved, the learning that they taught was outstanding and my boys knew things that I didn’t think they would learn until they went to school. The staff all kept me up to date with any issues straight away with a phone call if that was needed, usually, it was that one of them wasn’t feeling well, or had a slight accident (bumped head etc) I couldn’t love this nursery anymore and would recommend them to anyone, which I do.

As a parent I'm more than satisfied for joining this outstanding nursery. Staff are very professional always with a big cuddle for children. My son's first language is not English and it wasn’t easy to adjust to a new environment. His teachers made him feel safe always informing me about his progress.
Since he started, his progress has been amazing making strong relationships with staff and children. Nursery’s facilities are amazing with lots of recourses, planned math and literacy activities as well as extra curricular activities. There is a wonderful garden, it's spacious. The nursery is very clean, sterilising toys. Food is organic and tasty with big variety. I couldn’t find a better place for my son as staff is updated about first aid etc. safeguarding children as their own and listening to parents worries offering solutions. It's a very well organised school and supports children in all aspects even SEN. My son loves learning, eating healthy being sociable and independent. I believe this is the best environment for a child to grow and glow, that's why I strongly recommend it.

Fantastic nursery with competent and qualified staff. Since my daughter has attended this nursery I have noticed immense changes in her speech, confidence and ability to form positive relationships. My daughter has made friends, her inquisitive mindset is harnessed and I feel confident knowing that

Me and my husband are very happy and lucky to have Apples and Cherries Day Nursery around our area. My daughter is always happy and excited to go to the nursery, who always welcomes parent and child with a positive attitude. We are happy with the growth and development of our child during these months.
Health and hygiene are highly maintained. Staff is very helpful and concerned at all times. My daughter always loves to do the handouts given during the pandemic. She always gets excited by the name of Apples and Cherries, which brings a smile to our face too. Thanks to everyone who worked so hard for my child. Highly trusted Nursery.

We couldn't believe our luck when we found Apples and Cherries. Our son has been attending since they opened in 2018. The ethos of this nursery is a truly holistic approach. Facilities are amazing, with several outdoor areas, ideal for hyperactive kids. Inside, they have plenty of resources that many
nurseries would envy, including a fab sensory room. The lessons are carefully planned (science experiments, mini beast adventures, baking, learning phonics, you name it). Even during lockdown we received printed packs, plus daily emailed resources. We could also listen to lessons via an app. Food is healthy and freshly cooked from scratch, incl. pulses, organic fish. Your child will become a good eater. But the reason why you'll love them is their staff. This is not their job, but their true vocation. They'll look after your child and love them as if they were family. Book quickly before they get booked up. Your child couldn't be in better hands. I give you my word.

Every day we are greeted by the same staff members who know my daughter by name and greet her with a cuddle and so much enthusiasm! They really care for her and want her to do well. Each time I pick her up she has learned something new and their activities are always brilliant and timely, for instance,
they were doing projects for black history month on inspiring individuals. They also celebrate all the different holidays and events across the year. My daughter goes there one day a week and I have seen her doing Yoga, French, going on a 'holiday', having a dance class and learning about different types of music to begin to name a few! They are really good with all the children's dietary requirements and I know they go out of their way to make sure my daughter has similar dinners to the other children even though she doesn't eat the same things. I like that they send photo updates of what they are up to during the day too. They are very accommodating and flexible also.

I don't normally leave reviews for things but am so impressed with this nursery I want other parents to know about this little gem. My son has attended since January 2019 when he was 14 months, I moved him from another nursery that he just wouldn't settle at. Right from the start, I could see the difference
in this nursery's facilities and staff. The nursery is very clean and I like that all children wear slippers so no outdoor shoes are inside. The staff are amazing!! You can tell they genuinely care for the children and enjoy playing with and teaching them. My son loves all the staff and I have no tears when I drop him off, he happily goes in. The food is all freshly cooked on-site and smells delicious, not the school dinner smell you get in other nurseries. My son's development this year has been amazing. His confidence has grown immensely and I am so happy I made the choice to move him there. It is worth every penny and can't praise the staff enough!!

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.270)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.270) out of 10 for Partou Apples & Cherries 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 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 4.778 for Partou Apples & Cherries Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (86 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.778
  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 4.492 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Apples & Cherries Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.592
  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.
