I can’t recommend this nursery enough the staff are so lovely, all helping to make the settling in process a success for both the child and us as parents. The rooms are all so engaging for the children and my son loves it especially the large outdoor areas of play.

This nursery is fantastic! Being a nanny to a child who attends I have seen him flourish. The staff are very approachable and caring. The new online journey is amazing, I can see what he’s up to during the week. Plus I can put pics up of him at home playing and exploring. Any queries I have the management
team are quick and responsive and also very approachable. I highly recommend this nursery. The nursery grounds are amazing, such amazing space.

Reply from Natalie Butler at Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you for your lovely review. We are happy to work and liaise closely with other childcare partnerships for our families at the nursery. We are certainly very lucky with the outdoor space for our children to enjoy when they are at the nursery.

My ten-month-old nephew attends the nursery, I have only good things to say as I’m really happy with the nursery and the care given to my nephew as a whole. His current development shows that he is getting the care he needs and I would definitely recommend the nursery to others as I feel the staff are
very genuine and really do care and want to be there.

Reply from Natalie Butler at Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school

Hello Diza-Jane,


Thank you so much for your lovely review, your nephew is thriving at the nursery and we too can see his development since he joined a few months ago. We really appreciate you taking the time to leave a family review for the nursery.

Regularly collect our granddaughter from Children’s House. She’s always engaged in lovely activities when we pick up, never wants to leave. She’s so excited to tell all she’s done and eaten, asks mummy to cook what she’s had at nursery. The menus look appetizing a cook freshly prepares daily meals.
All staff very welcoming friendly and helpful: seem to have as much fun as the children. Yesterday went for grandparents afternoon tea organised by the team. Great outside grounds for children to play even a nature trail, granddaughter took delight in showing us a new family who joined the nursery recently in the gardens, family of scarecrows! Nursery manager bubbly approachable friendly and seen around nursery often, lovely helpful lady in office - seen on more than one occasion playing with children!
My daughter has recommended the nursery. As a family we are so happy, seen our granddaughter grow in confidence in the 3 years she has been here, one big happy family at Children’s House.

Very family orientated. My son attends Children’s House full time and he's always so happy on collection. The lunch menus always sound delicious and nutritional, staff are friendly and welcoming, management are also very friendly and helpful.
They won a garden competition of the year and you can clearly
see the amount of effort the staff have put in - the scarecrow family are my son's favourite!

Reply from Natalie Butler at Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you for your review and recognition of our garden competition win! We were so thrilled to win and very grateful for the parents' donations and contributions too!

We love Children's House day nursery because our child is supported down to his specific needs. It never feels like the children are just a number, but very personal. Everybody seems to know all of the children's names, their likes and dislikes and which days they are in. Something I was very impressed
by. One negative point are the potholes outside which are dangerous. Mentioned this a couple of times to management now. Food provided is good, albeit quite carbohydrate heavy. More protein would be amazing!

Thank you for your lovely review!
I see you've put 'satisfactory' under food and nutrition, I'd like to take this opportunity to explain to you our menus are created within the guidelines set out by 'Startwell' change 4 life and DFE 'Eat Better, Start Better'. This ensures all children gain their '5 a day' and a healthy balanced diet.
Our meals are made from scratch on site, no processed foods are used.
Our current grading from Environmental Health is a 4/5.

The contractors have been appointed to carry out the repairs. We are just waiting for a date for when this will be. We will keep all parents updated as soon as we know!


I hope this response reassures you and conveys the food menus and Health & Safety policies that are in place.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.715)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.715) out of 10 for Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.938 for Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (255 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 272 Ratings = 4.938

  • b) 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 4.777 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 23 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 148 number of registered child places is 29.6. 23 Positive Reviews ÷ 29.6 = 0.777

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2008

I am qualified at ‘Level 3’ in Early Years and have been working in nurseries since 2008. I have worked my way up the ladder, first as a Nursery Assistant, then onto Room Leader, working with different age groups of children, before becoming a Nursery Manager. I have a real passion to ensure the children have an environment in which they can fulfil their dreams and reach their full potential.


As a parent myself, I know how important it is to find the right childcare setting for not only your child but for you also.
