Only been a short time but both children really seem to be enjoying themselves. The outside space has been a big plus for our 3-year-old.

We are very happy with this nursery. They are constantly looking for new ideas and improvements. I love the curiosity plan approach. Our daughter brings so many clever ideas from the nursery. Children are always involved in various activities and the staff is attentive. Overall very good nursery.

Absolutely lovely staff, kind and caring. My daughter has loved going here since her first day a year ago.

Thank you for your lovely review!
I see you've put 'don't know' 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.


I hope this response reassures you and conveys the food menus and policies in place.

My daughter absolutely loves her nursery. She has been there for nearly two years now and has a been in three different classrooms growing with her age group. She feels she is big now as she is in preschool and can’t wait to leave in the mornings to get there. She’s always telling us about the different
foods she had at nursery and that she still doesn’t like tomatoes but her friend does. She has grown so much and is very sociable with her classmates and teachers. If there are any problems they are always quick to help and rectify any issues I have made.
The new system started this year has been amazing, I am able to see what my daughter is doing at nursery and her learning throughout the year not just at reviews. Couldn’t recommend Children’s House Day Nursery enough.

Thank you for your review. We are very lucky to be able to offer parents an after-school club service, the school children seem to really enjoy their own space upstairs!

Amazing nursery! My little boy is attending this nursery full time for almost 3 years now. He absolutely loves being here and we are so glad it’s a second home for him. Staff are super helpful. His key worker is his best friend which he is so proud of.

Our Daughter has been at Children's House for 3 1/2 years. We've been very happy with the care and support that she's had in this period. Its also our local nursery and we believe you should support local facilities.

Children's House is one of the best in the area. The teachers are very nice, warm and good with children. They are patient and very welcoming. There are times when the children are upset when parents are dropping them and the teachers are able to calm them down within minutes.

The staff at Children's House Day Nursery are fantastic. They are very good at settling new children and reassuring parents. The facilities are the best I've seen at a nursery with multiple outdoor play areas for different age groups and a sensory maze and buffalo trail. My son loves to find bugs on
the buffalo trail. The management are very accommodating and allow me to book extra sessions at short notice when needed. Both my children have enjoyed being at Children's House and I believe their independence and social skills stem from the excellent care during their time at nursery.

The staff are an absolute credit to the nursery. They do so many activities with the children and my son is always excited to tell me how he has done. My son is a fussy eater but has since tried many foods. This has only been possible with the perseverance of a strong team and a real bond with key
workers. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

My daughter, aged 2 years moved to this nursery from another one in Maidenhead when we moved into the area.


I have been amazed how well she has settled. She is a shy little girl who struggles with change and being away from me and her dad. I was very apprehensive about moving her but I need not

have worried. She is settling in very nicely.


All the nursery teachers are so caring and the environment is excellent. There is so much for the children to do. Abby (sorry if I have the spelling wrong) is brilliant. Jess loves her.


I am very pleased that we found Children's House and I recommend anybody looking for a caring, stimulating, fun and safe place to place their child looks no further than here.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.682)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.682) 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 22 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 4.939 for Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (246 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.939

  • 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 4.743 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Children's House Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 22 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. 22 Positive Reviews ÷ 29.6 = 0.743

  • 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.
