Haddenham Day Nursery has always felt like a safe place where we are happy for our daughter to attend. The staff are kind, approachable and keep our daughter engaged and clean. They keep us well informed by email of developments at the nursery. We have struggled to get additional days which proves the
popularity of the nursery, however, this has caused problems for us and has led to us finding child care at an alternative nursery now.

Our son loves attending Haddenham Day Nursery. He runs in each morning very excited. Every day he comes home with a new phrase or song that he didn't know before. His speech has come on so well since starting in the 2-3 year old room. The team are very caring and take a high interest in his development.
We're so thrilled with the progress in our son's milestones and development. NB: Re food: would prefer to limit soup to once a week as rarely eaten and need to keep up weight.

We're generally very happy with the nursery. Our child has a great time there. The staff take good care of her and know her as an individual very well. The tapestry portal is a great tool for keeping us up to date with what our child does at nursery on a daily basis and also her overall development.

The key workers here in the baby room are just fantastic they look after my 14 month old so well & she just loves going to nursery. She shrieks with excitement when she sees the key workers. I also love the variety of activities they do with the children - so creative and so much effort is put into
making it so much fun for the little ones. The best part though is the detailed tapestry updates. We love to see what she's been up to and the photos of her enjoying herself are so precious. Not just a happy baby at nursery... very happy parents as well with Haddenham Day Nursery.

I have been so impressed with Haddenham Day Nursery. The staff are so caring, my son's key worker has been such a star! It was tricky to settle him in and she has been so loving, I know he's very attached to her and feels so confident leaving him there with her. The activities the babies do in a day
are amazing, always plenty of messy play. The nursery are putting my son's development first, providing updates regularly and tips for at home. I would thoroughly recommend this nursery and understand the waitlist!

Our daughter is nineteen months old and loves going to nursery, she gets very excited in the mornings. The staff are very welcoming and warm towards parents and children. Their daily comments on the app match what we see at home and give an insight into the activities and enjoyment during each day.
They give ideas to support development in line with Development Matters and activities vary each day to support interests so our daughter seems to be learning quickly. Safeguarding is taken seriously, any injuries are communicated swiftly and mitigating procedures put in place immediately if needed. The food is varied, always healthy and balanced over the course of a day and a week. Overall, our daughter has a lot of fun, the staff all appear to genuinely enjoy their job and caring for her. We will be placing our next child at this nursery and would recommend it thoroughly to friends.

My 2 year old daughter is very happy at nursery. I always think how inviting the environment looks, there are lots of stimulating resources on offer inside and out. Recently they have supported us with potty training, which has been very successful. Communication with parents is good, although I'd love
to see even more on Tapestry.

My son is in the pre-school group and has been attending this nursery since the first lockdown eased in Summer 2020. He quickly adjusted to his new surroundings with the help of the friendly staff and he now goes running in, often without a backward glance. He is very happy there indeed and talks about
what he has been doing at nursery non-stop! They have been doing a great job of getting him counting and starting to know his letters, he is clearly learning a lot under their care. The children go outside a lot, in all weather. The nursery tends to avoid plastic toys which I am in favour of - real objects are used as toys wherever possible. A big practical thing in this nurseries favour is also their opening hours 8 am-6 pm. They are also open fifty weeks a year. As a working Mum and Dad, we need this to be able to fit around our work. Most alternative nurseries in the area have earlier pickups and/or are not open during school holidays.

My 3-year-old son has attended Haddenham Day Nursery for over 2 years now and really enjoys his time there. The staff have put a lot of effort into setting up a wide range of stimulating activities which are always changing, providing new learning experiences. I have found all of the staff to be very
friendly and approachable and any little niggles we have had have been dealt with professionally and quickly. Like many nurseries, staff turn over is quite high, which is unfortunate as my son has had numerous changes of key worker and occasionally communication from management isn’t always great, however, I think this is more a reflection of the management structure of the wider nursery chain, rather than the staff at this particular nursery.

My children have been attending Haddenham day nursery since summer 2019. They are happy to go in every day without a second glance at drop off. The room staff always seem happy, approachable and easy to deal with. Where possible, the children get outdoor play every day and get the opportunity to explore
outdoors safely and learn independence.

Since my son joined Haddenham Day Nursery over a year ago, he has settled in well and looks forward to each session he attends at the nursery, and that is thanks to the lovely ladies that work there! He has made many friends both with the children and the staff and often talks about them at home. I
look forward to the feedback from each session on the app to see what he has been up to, and to ensure he is eating all of his meals and behaving himself! Obviously, since the first lockdown in March 2020, things have been very unsettling for a lot of parents, however, Haddenham Day Nursery has been in contact with all parents on a regular basis to keep us updated with any changes, and they have really tried to go the extra mile to ensure that the children can remain in the nursery so they do not miss out, but also that it is a safe environment for them during the pandemic. The communication is always great, and both I and my son are very happy with the nursery to date.

My child started with the nursery in Nov20, due to the house move, we stayed with the company as we were very happy with the setup and care provided. Haddenham nursery has not disappointed. The move was made very easy for us and my son. My son is very happy about going to nursery and is very chatty
when coming home. Unfortunately, due to the current pandemic, we have not been able to get close enough with the nursery staff and handovers are brief. The use of the app is great to get an update from the day, which may need to be extended but understand the time constraint.
The nursery has a great outdoor space with loads of activities and toys.
I would highly recommend a nursery by this group.

My daughter has been at this nursery for a couple of years and we've always felt very happy with the quality of care and attention that she receives. Also, of course, our daughter is happy there and looks forward to going in. The staff have been fantastic, especially the key workers she's had and management.
She does various activities during the day and has varied meals and snacks. Feedback is daily online and we receive regular longer informative reports. The nursery has adapted well to the current situation and we feel our daughter is safe.

So happy with my daughter's progress over the past ten months. After a difficult settling in period, she is now thriving and runs into nursery each day with open arms.
The staff are fantastic, she loves them, and the range of activities each day that she does is amazing.
Thank you so much!

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.988)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.988) out of 10 for Partou Haddenham Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.988 for Partou Haddenham Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (249 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 252 Ratings = 4.988

  • 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 Haddenham Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 21 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 48 number of registered child places is 9.6, which has been reached with 21 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.
