My daughter has been coming to Playdays Blackrod since she was 9 months old, she's now 3 years old. She loves attending Playdays, she has made so many friends and all the staff have been amazing with her. Its been great to see how my daughter has developed throughout her time at Playdays - she's so
confident and a big part of this is definitely down to how well she has been nurtured here by all the staff.

We love Playdays! The staff are great and so engaged with all the Children, our Son loves his time here. He loves interacting with the other Children and has come on lots with his speech etc. in recent months with all the different activities. Thanks to all the team!

Absolutely fantastic nursery. The staff have been excellent with both of my children from start to finish. They have really enjoyed all rooms. The outside space is large and fantastic and they love it.

Absolutely love this nursery! All the members of the lower toddlers room are amazing. My son loves coming and at times it is a struggle to get him to leave.
The setting/rooms are beautiful and the staff are beyond compare

My child has been attending since Easter and is almost due to move to the lower toddlers. His time in the baby room has been fantastic and he's always so excited to go in each morning he attends. When I pick him up he's full of smiles and has clearly had a good day based on the staff feedback and
photos posted on the app. The staff clearly care about the children and work well as a team. Would recommend this nursery to everyone!

My daughter has been attending Playdays since October 24 and she absolutely loves it. Her development has improved so much and I think this is all down to the amazing staff and the great learning environment the nursery provides. The staff really focus on making each child feel special and that is a
great value to have. I also think the nursery also offers great support to the parents and it's great that they hold ad-hoc events where parents can come and see where their child spends all their time. I would recommend this nursery to everyone.

My little boy has loved Playdays since he first started at 11 months old! The staff are amazing, they are very knowledgeable, were accommodating with his routine when he first started and are always there to give support and advice when needed! The outdoor area is amazing and I cannot recommend
Playdays enough to other parents!
21 July 2025
My daughter loves going to nursery here and gets upset when I go to pick her up. They have a massive outdoor play area that she loves and so many different areas of pretend play inside.
I feel so relaxed knowing she's here and she gets looks after incredibly well.

Three of my children have attended Playdays Day Nursery over the last 10 years. My third child has only a few months left before leaving for primary school. Playdays has felt like an extension of our family. The staff are so very dedicated to providing the best care for the children- it really
wouldn't be the wonderful place without them. Recent changes in pre school room have been enthusiastically delivered and received, this is been around having more specific learning topics week by week, delivered in a fun way through play. I never hesitate in recommending Playdays. We will be very sad to leave, but know we have given our children a wonderful foundation from them being at Playdays. Thank you.

My eldest son came to Playdays 8 years ago and we had a great experience so much so, 8 years later I have sent my second son to Playdays! I love how all the same staff are still there and they remembered my eldest. The staff are all lovely and knowledgeable and you can tell the baby room is very
well organised and have a brilliant routine with the babies. Playdays offer a settling-in period of 6 weeks so once your child starts nursery, they're already really comfortable with the staff and have already established a bond. My son is so content in the baby room and loves coming to nursery!
24 June 2024
The nursery team are amazing, they go above and beyond for my little boy, the team also have extra activities for Mother's Day and Father's Day. Everyone is friendly and makes you feel welcome, the space is always clean and plenty of activities are done throughout the day to keep him entertained.

I don't have a bad word to say about Playdays. My daughter is in the preschool room and she has come on leaps and bounds. She is a very shy little girl and it did take her a while to settle but with the help of her amazing key worker. She absolutely loves going to preschool and has learned so much.
She has made new friends and is socialising. I get a full rundown of her day when I pick her up which I love. The photos throughout the day make me so happy knowing she is enjoying herself. She tells me all the stories when I pick her up and she really does have the best days here. I love that all the food served here is healthy knowing she is eating properly while at preschool is everything to us.
Any problems that I have had get dealt with so quickly and efficiently. I honestly couldn't recommend Playdays more.

My son started nursery at 9 months old. I was really nervous about the change for both of us. The staff in his room and reception have made the experience so easy and have eased any worries I had. My boy connected with the staff straight away. They always update me on his progress and make an effort
to get to know him. Even the office staff and catering team know him by name and always wave and say hello to him whenever I drop him off and pick him up. They have taken on board his allergies and still provide a wide variety of meals. The app is brilliant and they post his meals, how much he ate, nap times and nappy changes. As well as pictures and learning development updates. I'm so happy with the nursery I have chosen and can see how much he is developing within their care. My boy is now 11 months old and loves going to nursery. He feels safe and confident as I leave him with no tears. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

My daughter has been coming to Partou Playdays for over 7 months and is absolutely thriving! She is 19 months old and is already speaking, saying colours and absolutely loves going in every day. She puts her arms out to the nursery workers when I walk in which sets my mind at ease so I can work
guilt-free. You can tell they really care, even mentioning how great her hugs are and picking up on things she likes. The app which shows pictures of her enjoying herself and what she's eaten is also amazing, I've recommended them to all my expectant mum friends! Amazing.

My daughter has been attending Playdays for 2 days since Sept 23. She has settled in really well and I'm pleased with her progress. The staff are so kind and caring to all the children. My daughter's speech has really improved and I think going to nursery has definitely helped her.

All the staff know all the children, even the kitchen and support staff. They accommodate his dietary needs
with no fuss and there's always a good variety of food.

Always go above and beyond to look after and entertain my children putting on activities on a daily basis and also and doing out-of-hours work, ie nursery nativity and forest school, the food as well are exceptional with a wide variety of choices.

Amazing nursery from baby room right up to pre-school. So much engagement, fantastic facilities (the outdoor area is amazing) with genuinely dedicated and knowledgeable staff. Would always highly recommend the nursery and the manager is outstanding.

What a brilliant nursery, we wanted to view a couple before choosing where to send our little girl. I instantly wanted her here. Whether they are in or outdoors she loves all of the activities. We are always told about her day when we pick her up, about her food, what she's been up to, any naps,
etc. My little girl has some allergies which they have completely covered. Can't recommend Playdays enough.
08 September 2023
Amazing place and wonderful staff. I always thought we would be one of those parents having to pry away their child when dropping them off. The opposite is true. The children here are all excited to go. Today our child was hiding as she wanted to stay. The staff are wonderful, dedicated and really
get to bond with the children. It's something we noticed the first day we attended. The revamped external area is great and gives loads of space for them to move around.
