Westfields offer a clean, welcoming environment to both me and my children. The staff are friendly, professional, offer a nurturing approach and work with me to provide my children with the best care to learn, grow, develop and in recent months prepare for starting school.


At times, the nursery has

been slow to respond to certain requests that require escalation however, if within their control are proactive and helpful.


Parking at peak times can be tricky especially with two children.


In recent months, the nursery has had a "makeover" and looks bright and inviting.


Overall, I have been very happy with Westfields and would recommend it to parents looking for daycare.


Reply from Jessica Davis, Nursery Manager at Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. The points you have raised will be used in our continued personal development plan for the nursery to improve on the level of service for all our parents. I'm really pleased that you like the recent work and changes to the nursery. As a new-ish manager that's really lovely to hear.

We were first drawn to Westfields Day Nursery due to the staff and they have been brilliant. They genuinely know and care for our daughter and as first-time parents, we are really reassured by this. Our daughter (one-year-old) is eating really well, trying new foods and is very comfortable playing in
her new surroundings. She is very comfortable with the staff and seems keen to go in the mornings so we couldn't ask for more.

We chose Westfields as it was the closest nursery to our house so most convenient. I was surprised by how clean it was compared to others I'd look at. Really like the sleep pods and the low tables were in the baby room and the Montessori approach. I think the management team need time to settle in.
They
were a little inflexible on settling in sessions, we went from a 2-hour session to his first full day which was quite a jump for us.

My grandson has been attending this nursery for 7 months and the staff are all very caring. As he was only 8 months old when he started, I was concerned when leaving him in tears but was always reassured.
He has now settled well. I am unable to comment on a lot of questions as I only do the drop offs.

A well-run nursery with friendly baby room who take time to understand the children and parents needs. Very pleased with the care they offer. They're willing to share positive parenting tips and really brought our little one along.


The new manager is making a really positive impact too.

I moved my three-year-old son to this nursery based on convenience of location to start with but also because I’d heard it was good from friends with children there. It has been a brilliant decision as he has settled wonderfully. I think the staff are fantastic and so caring and thorough. The resources
are great and I love the focus on real objects to play with, rather than lots of plastic.

Reply from Jessica Davis at Partou Westfields Day Nursery & Pre-school

This review is just wonderful. I am so pleased you love the approach we use here at Westfields. The team have worked so hard to create a home from home feel using real authentic resources. The children just love exploring these objects becoming much more confident and mindful with their environment. Thank you.

The staff at Westfields are amazing, they are dedicated and caring to nurture children and seeing them develop. They were flexible, compassionate and supportive when I was in hospital and offered extra sessions for my son, the facilities are great and my little boy loves playing in the garden!

This month, my daughter has really settled into her class and this is largely due to the wonderful staff caring for her. Her primary carers have really bonded with her which has enabled her to feel safe and happy in her environment with them and other children. Her recent positive behaviour and development
has been very noticeable and her love of the staff and enjoyment of wanting to attend nursery even on her days off show that she is incredibly cared for and this is a credit to the lovely staff who spend their time encouraging a happy and positive nursery experience for her. Thank you :)

Westfields Day Nursery has a real family feel, which makes it very special. My little boy has been attending since he was a baby and has been well-cared for and nurtured during that time. I feel that the staff at Westfields Day Nursery have an open door strategy with parents in that they listen to any
parental concerns and address them appropriately. My little boy has developed some great relationships here with staff and children alike. Would definitely recommend!

The smile on his face says it all when we step through the front door in the morning - looking forward to a fun day with all his friends and staff in the room. We couldn't be any happier or prouder of how our boy has developed into a confident, cheeky toddler with the support from the Westfields team.

My son has been at Westfields for four years and during that time I feel he has really developed socially and I know Westfields has played a big part in that. I feel the staff are friendly and genuinely care for him. Westfields have helped to expand the range of food he eats and has helped when we have
asked for help to focus on certain development such as his writing. The management team are helpful and responsive. I'd recommend Westfields to other parents too.

Our child has really enjoyed playing at this nursery. She has made use of all the play areas available (role plays, reading books, mark making and outdoors) and really enjoys the French songs and rhymes, they regularly sing (thanks to the visiting French teacher). She has always been looked after well.

My son absolutely loves nursery. He comes home babbling with excitement after his nursery days.


He likes to show me the new objects after a room change around when I pick up.

Westfields Day Nursery is a fantastic nursery. Both of my children have attended until school age. They instil a great trust between carers and parents and my children have flourished whilst in their care. They are always forward thinking and striving for more for each and every child.

I have been happy with the care both my children received at this nursery. My daughter is still here and enjoys going every time. She has a positive relationship with many of the staff and the other children and quite simply seems to have a great time every day.

Well what can I say. From the moment we came to look around, I was blown away by the nursery and staff. When I first moved to the area, my son started at another nursery and was so unhappy, but Westfields changed all that. He has gone back to being a happy little boy who loves going to nursery. All
the staff are amazing and I am always kept up to date with what is going on with him. I cannot thank everyone enough for making his time here so special and would recommend anyone who is looking for a nursery to come here first.

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.
