Our children always have a lovely day at Westfields. The staff are friendly and informative and there is a great range of activities. They often enjoy time in the garden and the catering is good. We're confident that Westfields provides a great social and learning experience for our little ones.

My child is extremely happy at Westfields and is very excited when it’s a nursery day. The staff are lovely and caring, the food is always appreciated, handovers at the door have worked well, and the office very responsive. Thank you.

Our son loves going to Westfields every single time! The staff work so hard to ensure he is happy and content. Tapestry (the online learning journal) is packed full of photos and observations to know exactly the fun he has had during the day. They ensure children develop in their own way with a major
focus on independent learning. The separate areas are packed full of fun natural resources and we love their main focus is on outdoor learning. We couldn't recommend Westfields enough!

I was a bit nervous about my son starting nursery but the staff at Westfields have been so friendly, professional and reassuring. I love how happy he is when he sees his key workers - he's always so full of smiles for them.

I have two children who attend Westfields. My eldest started in the baby room and is now in Rising 3’s. She gets so excited to go to nursery now and would love to go every day! I can not thank the team at Westfields enough for helping my daughter learn lots of new things and gain confidence in herself
and with other children. My youngest has recently started in the baby room and is settling in well. The staff are so friendly and provide excellent care. As a parent, it can be a very anxious time leaving your children in the care of others, but the team at Westfields go above and beyond.

My son started at Westfields when he was six months old. We were reluctant and anxious but from the outset he loved it. The small team is completely focused on the children and he is taking part in so many activities. He loves the outdoor - play in rain or shine, they all have time in the garden. Westfields
have been great during covid with plenty of clear communication and explanation of the measures they're taking. Thank you Westfields Nursery.

My sons have been at Westfields since they were a year old, on my return to work. They have spent time in every room from ‘babies’ upwards and I can honestly say every member of staff has been wonderful. It would be remiss of me not to mention that during the early days (and beyond!) we had so much
support from certain members of staff, for which we will always be grateful. The boys really enjoy their “nursery days” and beyond just being looked after, they are really nurtured. At this strange time, in particular, I’m very appreciative of the extra lengths the Westfields team goes to, in order to keep the place up and running and keeping things feeling very normal for the children, because it provides such a valuable social and learning environment for the children. There are always lots of fun and new activities going on, they spend as much time outside as possible and I’m always a bit jealous when I hear about the day’s lunch and tea menu.

I cannot recommend Westfields nursery highly enough. Our children absolutely love it.
The activities, facilities, food, building and garden are excellent, and the employees and management make it exceptional for us. They have all shown such care for and support to our two children and the family as
a whole over the last few years. Our sensitive oldest has been nurtured and given the attention he needed to build his confidence and independence. Our boisterous youngest has a safe, caring and fun place to explore and learn. We feel that the team at Westfields have been a great influence towards both children’s’ development.
The detailed daily online updates and photos are very much appreciated, particularly during the current Covid restrictions (which are handled very well by the nursery). We love seeing the many activities and adventures the children have had during the day. The song time videos and photos of yoga and playing in the garden are particular favourites.

We would highly recommend Westfields Day Nursery. Our two-year-old daughter has been attending for almost 12 months and she’s very settled and happy there. The staff are lovely, very caring and attentive. The activities are engaging and it’s always nice to read on Tapestry what she’s been up to! A final
note about the catering which sounds delicious. Our daughter is always fed well with lots of tasty healthy food provided. Thank you, Westfields!

I would highly recommend Westfields to anyone. My daughter is always very happy to come in and loves the huge variety of activities and the fact that she can choose activities. She loves the different variety of rooms and the outdoor area. The staff are amazing and are great with organising different
seasonal activities.

Our daughter has attended Westfields since she was 14 months, and we are really happy with all Westfields offer. The staff there are great and really take time to get to know the parents as well. The food is exceptional and we love that we have the resume every day that fresh, home-cooked food is available.
The cost is much higher than other high rating nurseries. However, given our daughter's time there we would not be looking at moving her to another setting.

We're really happy with the experience at Westfields, and especially since my child has moved to the toddler room. We have been so impressed with the staff in the toddler room. Approachable, engaged and seem to really know/understand my child. Day to day the nursery communicate well (on occasions I've
thought it might be nice to have more insights into daily activities, though appreciate you can't cover everything in a busy handover). Overall, we couldn't be much happier!

Westfield offers a warm and friendly environment that has really helped my child flourish and grow in confidence. She looks forward to going in and talks about staff with fondness when at home. Staff always take the time to talk to you during handovers and get to know each individual child.

Children are really looked after. There is a 'warm' feel to the nursery which I felt the moment I walked in. The staff know all the children's names very quickly and all say 'hi' even if they are not in the same room. They take the time to get to know the parents. I like that they don't play with plastic.

This is a lovely review K T, thank you. It is a beautiful feel and atmosphere here at the nursery and its lovely that we follow the curiosity approach (no plastics) to encourage curious learners.

My child's caregiver is first-rate. We could not ask any more from her. She is wonderfully kind and nurturing. The evidence of this is clear in our chid as he has developed enormously and is thriving. The nursery is, overall, excellent. The staff can't be criticised, but there are some policies that
are questionable. For example, fees are very expensive anyway but to charge a premium for mid-week days is punitive for those parents who can't choose their work pattern around it. Likewise, charging for days that the nursery does not open for is inconsiderate. The invoicing is not always accurate either.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.970)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.970) out of 10 for Partou Westfields 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.970 for Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (128 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 132 Ratings = 4.97

  • 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 Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 11 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 55 number of registered child places is 11, which has been reached with 11 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.
