My little one loves her two nursery days at Woodlands. The staff are great and caring, and it's great to see via the app what activities my little girl gets up to during the day. It always seems like a lot of fun! Every time I pick her up she is happy and smiling, which in turn makes me happy. I know
she is well looked after and that's the most important thing.

We looked at a few nurseries before settling on Woodlands to hopefully help increase our child's development. As soon as we viewed Woodlands, we knew hands down this was where we wanted our child to go. The staff makes you feel like an important part of the experience, ensuring enough settlement sessions
if your child's struggling to settle. I feel happy knowing that my child is very well looked after, seeing all sorts of updates during the day of how they are getting on. We cannot wait to see how further our child thrives being here. Thank you Woodlands for being excellent in what you do.

Both of my children have thrived at Woodlands and the staff have been great in their proactive care and support to both of them. Highly recommend. The nutrition had been great providing a good variety. Engagement and feedback to parents through the app and face-to-face has also been great so that you
feel involved with their development at the nursery.

My son has just finished his settle sessions and has now began attending Woodlands and I can not fault the team. From the registration process through to starting, the team have made us feel very welcome and secure in leaving our son in their care. Every time we have picked up, he has greeted us with
big smiles and the observations are so lovely to see how he is getting on.

We were very nervous for our son to start nursery.
However Woodlands were so welcoming and after some settling in sessions our son got used to Woodlands.
He is always very excited to go and has made lots of friends - he has also come on leaps and bounds.
The staff are so friendly, caring, and welcoming.
We feel we have chosen a really safe and fun nursery and we would highly recommend Woodlands Day Nursery.

My 3 year old has been here just one month, after being at two other nurseries due to military moves. Woodlands have done more for him in one month than the other two combined! They are attentive, professional, and caring, doing all they can to help him settle and enjoy his time there. The staff are
supporting him in his learning across the board and work closely with us as parents to ensure he has the best experience.

We have had two children attend Woodlands Day Nursery over the past six years and have only good things to say. Our second child is in his final few weeks before starting school. The staff are excellent, and the children clearly enjoy their time there - and are always learning something new. Communication
is just right. We regularly get photos and write-ups about what has happened during the day, which is useful to discuss at home. Thank you to everyone at Woodlands - we will miss you!

Reply from Emily Brown, Manager at Partou Woodlands Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you so much for your kind words. It has been a pleasure looking after both of your children and watching them flourish!

My son has been at Woodlands Day Nursery for a year now and he has grown so much, in so many ways. His confidence and happiness while at Woodlands, is a joy to see. The ladies there are always so welcoming and I know he is safe and well cared for. The wide range of activities available, both indoors
and outside are fantastic and keep him challenged and entertained. We love that we get regular updates through the app, which keeps us updated on how much food he's eaten and naptimes. As well as showing the variety of food on the menu and the different activities they've completed. We are looking forward to his new adventure at Woodlands as he transitions to the toddler room.

We are moving out of the area and have not found it easy to find a new nursery that we felt as comfortable with as we do yours. Woodlands was the only nursery we looked at for our daughter so we didn't realise how good we had it. Thank you to the manager and the staff for all the help and for creating
a warm, inviting, creative space with personality for our child to enjoy when she is with you.

My son has been at Woodlands now for 6 months and is always so excited to go to nursery. He settled into the baby room really well, after we were all made to feel so welcome - even with Covid restrictions in place. He has grown so much and developed so many new skills with the help of all the ladies
there. It fills me with pride to see him happy and thriving in the nursery setting. I am so pleased that we chose Woodlands and thank the team for their support.

After viewing several large nurseries we chose Woodlands Day Nursery and couldn't be happier. My child is thriving there and loves to go in each day. The staff are great and I feel happy at drop-offs when my child greets them with smiles and cuddles. The nursery manager is the icing on the cake. She
is so helpful and communicates with us brilliantly. If I have a worry or question she is never too busy. I like that Woodlands is a smaller setting, it feels more personal, a really lovely nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.910)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.910) out of 10 for Partou Woodlands 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.910 for Partou Woodlands Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (184 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 201 Ratings = 4.91

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Woodlands Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 17 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 44 number of registered child places is 8.8, which has been reached with 17 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
