Very pleased with every aspect of the care our daughter gets at Bambino's, she has a great time each day she attends the nursery and the staff are very caring and attentive. The activities she undertakes are stimulating and enjoyable and it always great to see these recorded on the tapestry system.

An excellent nursery staffed by wonderful people. My son joined in September 2020. He immediately settled in well and was full of smiles at the beginning and end of the day. The staff know him well and are always so positive. The communication between nursery and home is excellent both via email and
with more individual feedback through tapestry. The most important part of the nursery for me is the staff, all of them are amazing.

Fantastic nursery, staff and setting.
Bambino is a fantastic setting for any child. The staff are extremely kind and caring, making a huge effort to settle children in at the start but also it is clear they genuinely love their jobs and the children.
There is a huge amount of space inside and out
which provides a great space for children to learn through play and interaction. The children get to forage for vegetables and fruits in one of the gardens which they then help clean/prepare before it is used in the lunchtime meals. There are mud kitchens, a ‘construction’ zone for digging, play equipment and much more.
It is clear from the daily reports and photos that there is a lot of effort put into the activities for the children to engage in.
I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough and I am very pleased we decided to enrol our son.

I cannot praise Bambino nursery enough. Having your first child is a rollercoaster in itself, but choosing to return to work and trust an establishment with your child is another thing. Bambino is a supportive nursery, which made the transition for me and my son as smooth as possible. All of the staff
there are kind, caring and so very personal. They are supportive of both the children and the parents at every stage of the journey through the nursery. My son is confident, articulate and well-advanced because of the structured support and plays that Bambino offer. The location of the nursery is also something extremely important and alluring as there is so much outdoor space for all of the children to play and learn in. Finally, I cannot praise Bambino and the staff enough for the way they have navigated the recent pandemic and lockdown. Every decision made was safe, with the best interests of the families and staff at heart. Bambino is a fantastic nursery.

What I liked best about Bambino nursery when I first looked around in 2017 was the homely feel I got and the sense of space the children had available. My son has been at Bambino from 11-months and will be leaving this September 2020 to start school. He has had only but a positive experience, all the
staff and his key workers have been fantastic, and he will be leaving with confidence and in great preparation to start his school journey. The fact they have a great outside space/field and grow their own vegetables is just some of the benefits my son has been able to experience over the years. I have nothing but praise and positivity regarding my sons time at Bambino. He’ll be sad to leave. Would highly recommend the nursery to anyone who wants their child to have lots of space and a caring team of staff that have only the best interests for the children. Thank you, Bambino!

My wife and I reviewed numerous nurseries before deciding which one to place our two children in. Immediately after visiting Bambino, we knew that it was the best fit for them and so we got them enrolled. I can honestly say, this is the best nursery that my children have ever been to and also the best
that I have seen. Staff are so friendly, welcoming and professional, and just seem to really care about the children. We have seen huge improvements in our children's speech and learning development overall. Bambino has set the bar and exceeded our expectations. My children absolutely love going to school and run straight in waving behind them. All-round excellent and highly recommended.

This nursery is a hidden gem. A truly magical place where children’s learning and development is at heart. From the time you enter this place until the time you leave, all you can see is a friendly, happy children and staff. This is difficult to achieve but the management are excellent at it. Very personal
approach to both - my children and us as parents. Always leaving with a smile seeing my children being so happy to go to the nursery and when collected really excited to speak about different things that happened in the nursery. We had to leave but with a broken heart as it will be very hard to find such a fantastic childcare provider! We love this place and would recommend to all parents

Our twins have been to a couple of nurseries prior to Bambino. They are very happy here and seem to have learnt quite a lot from the very friendly staff. We highly recommend this nursery.

Absolutely love Bambino. My daughter attended for six months prior to starting preschool this September. Fantastic facilities, daily structure with lots of free-flow play and extremely friendly staff that are very caring. My son has just joined the baby room and settling in well. I had no concerns about
leaving him there for my return to work. Love tapestry website used to log pictures and notes on what my little ones have got up to at nursery each week.

Bambino Nursery is located in a lovely house, but not only the building contributes to the fantastic, home-like environment for the children. My daughter attended there for a year; she had a great time and made a wonderful progress. All members of staff are friendly, approachable and always smiling
(even at the end of an exhausting day they spare a moment to say something nice and give parents feedback – frankly speaking, I have always admired them for it).
The children are always offered a great variety of activities that are both funny and educational. I loved the massive playground, partially hidden behind the trees (fantastic on hot summer days), with vegetable garden and many other facilities to play with and learn. My daughter loved the toys and the fact that the children played in different rooms and playgrounds. My whole family could not be happier with Bambino nursery.
A big thank you to all the staff.

Both of my children have been attending Bambino’s since nine months old. The oldest is now nearly four and preparing for big school and I know he’s going to miss everyone at Bambino’s very much. I love the fact that each room is so tailored to the specific age group, and each even has its own specific
outdoor play area. The staff are friendly and flexible and truly do care for the children they look after. One of the things that most stands out about Bambino’s is the large field and the amount of outside space they have. If, like me, you have children that enjoy the outdoors and need to run off steam then this nursery ticks all the boxes. The menu is healthy, varied, and I like how they have substituted a few puddings for starters to decrease the sugar intake of the children.

I have felt that the staff at Bambino’s have delivered over and above what I expected. They have been there for me regarding any help I needed and the level of care and attention they give to my child at nursery is really impressive. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Bambino’s to anyone I know. The staff
make it the best nursery for miles around.

Fantastic! I am extremely grateful to this nursery and all the staff here for providing a safe and nurturing 'second home' to my son who has thrived month on month. He has been at the setting for just over 2 years and experienced different development settings, and I am so pleased to say he is very
happy and well cared for. He has a brilliant group of friends and positive relationships with all members of staff. I couldn't be more pleased and confident about returning to work with the support and care provided by Bambino's!

I am so happy we found Bambino Nursery for our toddler. It really gives you peace of mind when you know your little one is happy at Nursery. Especially for my kid who used to cry at least once at her previous nursery, it's a delight for us to see her smiling every day when we go to pick her up. Except
for one time, when her friend was not in and she said that she missed playing with her. During her last settling session, my little one told me that she fell off a bike and cried, but when immediately one of the staff picked her up and comforted her by singing her favourite ABC song, she felt better. It's this friendly staff, large play area and garden that makes it a wonderful place for little ones.

Bambino Day Nursery has been fantastic for both of our children. Each age room is spacious and has a playground for just that age. One advantage over other nurseries is that 3 months to walking and walking to two years are in separate rooms. The field for playing, allotment, nature trail and pond are
a real bonus and a highlight for our children. The majority of staff have been at Bambinos for many years and are incredibly dedicated and caring. Bambinos has provided great opportunities for playing, learning and interacting with our children.

My son attended Bambino's from age 6 months and left this year due to attending school and my 18-month-old daughter has been there since she was 9 months old. Bambino's has fantastic facilities, I don't know any other nursery that has its own field for the children to play in during the warmer months,
and an allotment that the children help to look after. The staff are very warm and caring and I know they have a fantastic time while they are there. I looked at other nurseries when we moved home but stayed with Bambino's as the others just didn't come close.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.445)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.445) out of 10 for Partou Bambinos Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 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 4.738 for Partou Bambinos Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (131 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 168 Ratings = 4.738

  • 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 4.707 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Bambinos Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 14 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 99 number of registered child places is 19.8. 14 Positive Reviews ÷ 19.8 = 0.707

  • 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.

Working with children gives the staff at Bambino Day Nursery great pleasure, as they make each day so beautiful. We work very closely with families when their child requires additional needs, which is always a rewarding experience, particularly getting to understand their feelings and emotions. We enjoy building solid relationships with parents, children and the staff team – and those relationships are a key part of our nursery ethos.
