We are very happy with our child's experience at nursery, in the baby room, 3 days a week. He is happy when seeing practitioners, who are friendly and follow his progress closely. They update the diary daily, so that we know what he has eaten and how much he has slept. They also give us more detail
when we collect him.
We always love getting the observation reports with the photos (even if some can be a bit blurry) and the detail of what he got up to. Staff clearly take into account students' interests and likes and dislikes when planning activities for them. We are extremely grateful to the kitchen staff too, who cater for his plant-based diet.
We love the sensory room and the big outdoors space, as well as special events around celebrations from various cultures.
All in all, we would definitely recommend this nursery to other parents!

My daughter of 19 months attends this nursery full time and absolutely loves it (so much so, she sometimes doesn't want to leave and wants me to stay and play instead). The staff are super lovely, caring and great at their jobs. Thanks so much for taking care of my girl.

Our son attended Partou Silchester Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School for the year or so that we lived in the area. He grew tremendously during his time there into a much more confident young boy and made many good friends. We had full support from the staff with potty training and language development
as well as developing his gross motor skills. He was encouraged to be kind and use kind words and told that it's ok to make mistakes, which fosters a growth and learning mindset. The staff were very friendly and caring. Our son always had a smile on his face when we picked him up and often wasn't ready to come home, which is a very positive sign. A huge thanks to the whole team for dedication to developing young children.

The team at Silchester Manor are incredible. They are all so welcoming to our daughter and have really worked in partnership with us to ensure the best experience possible for all of us. The atmosphere is always friendly and we can see the result of their dedication in the behaviour of our daughter.
When we go and collect she never wants to come home as she's engaged with an activity that is much more riveting. When we take her in the morning she walks in, confidently puts her bag away and waves goodbye - eager to crack on with her buddies.

We have sent our daughter to Partou Silchester Manor Day Nursery and Pre-School in Maidenhead for the last 7 months, and have nothing but good things to say about the staff and the nursery as a whole. The staff are friendly, approachable and professional, and our daughter loves going to nursery. She
has come on so much since attending, from everything to her speech, her sharing, her confidence and her education.
We get regular updates through the app on how our daughter is doing, and always get informed each day when we pick her up, what kind of day she has had. I can't recommend Silchester Manor highly enough.

Our daughter attended Silchester Manor for 2 years. As well as the friendly and supportive day-to-day care in the baby and 2-3s rooms, we hugely appreciated the kind, flexible and understanding approach of the management team. No query was ever too small for them, and they went above and beyond to include
families in celebrating various customs and festivals throughout the year too. Our daughter has grown hugely in confidence during her time at Silchester. Thank you to all the staff.

Our son loves his time at Partou and has grown into a confident little toddler during his time in the nursery. He has developed a close bond with his keyworker and other practitioners who are amazing with children. The garden facilities and the sleep room in the baby room have been particular highlights,
as well as the space in the rooms for all the children to explore. Thank you for giving him such a good start and for always being so kind and nurturing.

My experience with Silchester Manor Day has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment my boys (elder one now 6 and little one now 2) started attending, I've been thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the nursery. The staff at Silchester Manor are not only highly professional but also incredibly
caring and attentive. They create a warm and nurturing environment where children feel safe and encouraged to learn and grow. It's evident that they genuinely care about the well-being and development of each child. The outdoor play area is fantastic, providing ample space for children to explore and play freely. The nursery staff keep parents informed about their child's progress and provide regular updates on activities and events happening at the nursery. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Silchester Manor Day to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child.

Our son has been attending for several months now, after moving to Maidenhead. All the children were very welcoming, and the team understood his needs and helped him settle in. He is developing his confidence and keeps surprising us with all the things he learns. He also has built strong friendships,
and we are delighted with our choice.
Very good team, setting and food.

Silchester Manor is a great nursery. The staff are very supportive, especially with the settling-in process and calming the nerves of parents. The communications have been open from the start, and they really know how to meet my daughter's needs.

Both my sons have been attending Silchester for a year now and since then, they have both flourished and are so happy to start their day here. The staff are incredibly friendly, warm and supportive. The daily updates we receive via the app are great. I can see they are happy and busy learning in a creative
way. I can also see via the app that they have been well fed with some nutritious meals which is fantastic and makes me feel at ease. The beautiful garden is also great for all the children as it's really spacious. I would 100% recommend Silchester to any parents thinking of bringing their children here. I can only think of positive things to say about the nursery!

Both of my children have attended Silchester since they were 12 months old. My eldest is 4 and will be leaving to start school in September which will be a very sad time for him as he's been so happy at Silchester! The staff are excellent and the outside space for the children to play in and roam and
explore is second to none. My daughter had had a few areas of support that she needed and her key worker has been great at providing her with tailored activities to support her with her development goals. Overall I would highly recommend Silchester to anyone!

My son has been here for the last 4 years and there is not a day of unhappiness or doubt in my mind. I am always given updates and reviews of my child and his progress. He has been allowed to speak his mind, be creative and develop as a boy. The teachers are extremely supportive yet add a creative agenda.

We have been very happy with Silchester Day Nursery since our son began in February. The facilities are fantastic, with a huge amount of space both indoor and outside, this is especially well-suited to our little boy's love of the outdoors. The staff have been equally fantastic, communication is exceptional
and it feels like the door is always open to chat with the team, in the office or working in the day, whether that be for a brief check-in or a more in depth discussion. We feel both our son and us, as parents, are very well supported.

I am extremely grateful to this nursery for the care they have given my daughter. Every member of staff is welcoming and friendly. Whilst going through a difficult health issue, the manager and everyone in the preschool room were very understanding and flexible. They looked after my daughter extremely
well, and for that, I will be eternally grateful. Thank you once again!

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.841)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.841) out of 10 for Partou Silchester Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.841 for Partou Silchester Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School is calculated as follows: ( (182 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 214 Ratings = 4.841

  • 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 Silchester Manor Day Nursery & Pre-School is based on 18 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 88 number of registered child places is 17.6, which has been reached with 18 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.
