We have been delighted with Partou Scotts Wood. Settling your child into nursery is a very nerve-wracking process but right from the start we have felt supported and are confident our child is very well looked-after. When we see the staff interacting with our child, they are so warm and caring and our
child is affectionate and happy with them which shows us how much he trusts them too. This gives us such peace of mind. We are always asked about our child's preferences and the nursery do lovely activities with the children like painting, biscuit-decorating and going outside (to the on-site outside area). We know our son has an incredible time at nursery and this has been a huge weight off our minds. We have also observed skill development that we think has definitely come from time at nursery e.g., using cutlery. We would send any future children to this nursery.

All three of my children have attended this nursery and we have loved being a part of the Scotts Wood family. The staff are very caring and engaging, and the communication is excellent both verbally and through the app. The funny anecdotes and photos that the staff share from their day show that they
really cherish both their achievements and individual personality.
My children have all thrived here, and the older ones were very well prepared for school when the time came. The food is also excellent, and I can never believe what my children eat at nursery but wouldn't touch at home! Overall we love the truly nurturing environment, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Scotts Wood to anyone.

Reply from Leah Hannon, Home Manager at Partou Scotts Wood Day Nursery & Pre-school

Our boy has been attending the nursery for roughly 6 months now and he loves it there. He has really grown in confidence since he started. The staff are so good with him, very patient and attentive. We are always kept informed of important things such as his nap times and how he has done with his food.
There are plenty of toys, books and activities to keep the children entertained and everytime I have been to pick up, all of the children seem to be having a great time.
The staff really make an effort with the parents too, to build a relationship which is really nice to see - it makes it feel like a little community.
We are really happy with our decision to send our child here.

Our two boys are so happy at Scott's Wood. They love to talk about what they have been doing during their day at nursery and are always so happy to see their key workers in the morning. We appreciate the regular observations on eylog. The staff know our boys well and structure activities to support
their development. Communication with the leadership team is always extremely efficient and we appreciate, and make use of, the flexibility in adding on additional days during non-term time.

Our son has been going to Scott's Wood since he was 1 and started in the baby room, it's been a real pleasure seeing him grow and develop his personality through the different rooms. The staff are all so welcoming, and caring and provide support and fun activities for all the little ones. We feel very
comfortable knowing our son is well cared for and we are kept up to date with photos of his day and upcoming events from the nursery. All the staff are extremely dedicated to each child's learning journey and that really shows, they are a real credit to the nursery. I would definitely recommend Scott's Wood as a nursery.

Of all the nurseries we looked around in the local area Scott's Wood was our first choice and we have had no reason to doubt that since our child started at the nursery. They are nothing but helpful and accommodating to us and our child and, as well as our child, we get on well with the nursery employees.
We get communicated the right level of information about our child's progress and they often go above and beyond to talk about our child's needs. Thanks, Scott's Wood!

The staff, the facilities, and the overall care provided by Scott's Wood to date has been of an incredible standard and we are really happy with the care provided. Our son has settled into nursery really well and we put this down to how attentive the staff are, and how welcoming they are to us as parents
and to him. We are kept well updated and our son's development has really improved since starting nursery, especially his social and language skills. I can't thank Scott's Wood enough for the care they provide our child, and we see them as an extension of our family.

Our daughter attended another local nursery in the area after she turned 2 however we were not 100% comfortable with that setting after spending a few settling-in sessions there. We then transferred across to Partou Scotts Wood Day Nursery and could not have wished for a better place.
The setting
is very well run and of a very high standard in terms of staff caring for children, encouraging positive behaviour, educational activities, and facilities. We feel our daughter has been given excellent opportunities to learn and mix with the staff and other children both indoors and outdoors.
A special thank you to the two ladies in the Garden Room as well as the three members of staff in Magic Attic for making the nursery such a special and welcoming place. Our daughter speaks fondly of the nursery and staff when she comes home. A big thank you to the managing team for seamlessly transferring our daughter into the nursery and making our experience so memorable.

My girls have been attending Partou Scott Wood Day Nursery since February 2024. My eldest daughter was shy and would not come out of shell before Nursery but I have noticed a change in behaviour. My daughter is now open and happy to engage with her peers, sometimes with her teachers.
My youngest daughter
woke up one night and asked me to take her to her nursery teacher, she loves going to nursery and is very excited to see her teachers, and as parents, we could not ask for more.
There was a time when we were unable to pick the girls up on time due to unforeseen circumstances but we were shocked at how much patience and reassurance they gave us, it was phenomenal. Two staff members, in particular, we appreciate you ladies.
Also, I like the idea of uploading pictures of the activities that they have done for us to see what they have been doing for the day.
Overall, I would recommend Partou Nursery for the above reasons and also, the way they are structured to be able to access the nursery with a code.

We currently have both of our daughters attending Scotts Wood and we couldn't be happier with the experience they have both had. Our eldest joined when she was 2 years old as we'd just moved to the area and despite our concerns as to how she would settle in she has flourished under the supervision of
her amazing key workers. She is set to start primary school in September and we all feel very prepared for that next step as a result of the support we've been given. Our youngest daughter has been at Scotts Wood for the past 6 months and settled in very quickly. Both of the girls look forward to going to nursery every day and on some occasions don't want to leave when we collect them! Every single member of staff is fantastic and we couldn't recommend Scotts Wood highly enough.

We are so pleased with this lovely nursery! We were nervous about putting our one-year-old into nursery at the time but the staff were so supportive, kept in contact and help made the process so easy. Since then, our son has loved the past 10 months and we couldn't recommend the staff in the toddler
room enough!

Highly recommend! My child has been attending the nursery for half a year, and they have absolutely loved it. The staff are incredibly caring and nurturing, and they have created a warm and welcoming environment where children can feel safe and secure. My child has made so many new friends at nursery,
and they have learned so much. The staff have tailored their teaching to their individual needs, and they have helped them to develop their social, emotional, and academic skills. I am so grateful for the care and attention that the staff at Scotts Wood Day Nursery have given my child. The staff are incredibly dedicated and passionate about their work. They have made a real difference in their life.

Our daughter started at Scott’s Wood in January, and she has settled in so well, and that’s all down to the nursery. The staff in the baby room are wonderful; they clearly love what they do, and they go above and beyond. The nursery is well run with great communication and safeguarding too.

Our daughter has been at Scott's Wood for five months so far, and from when we first looked around to now, everyone has been super friendly, caring and supportive. The staff are honestly amazing, and the care and attention they give the children is wonderful. The spaces are great, with the outside bit
being our little one's favourite, and even the menu sounds super tasty! Our daughter has absolutely thrived since being here, and it's so nice knowing she is going to be well looked after and have a great day when we drop her off. We have never had any issues and have nothing but praise for everyone. We love sending our daughter to Scott's Wood, and she definitely loves it there too. We can't recommend Scott's Wood enough.

We enrolled our daughter into Scotts Wood in January, having moved to the area. The information sent ahead of her joining was very comprehensive, and the staff were all very responsive and helpful. After a very short time, our daughter was settled, happy and excited to go to nursery each day - the staff
are all wonderful, and I love that when she arrives each morning, they all excitedly welcome her, and she is happy to say goodbye and spend the day with lots of friends. Her development has come on very well since joining, and her day seems full of different activities and lots of outdoor time, which is what we had been looking for in a nursery. I would 100% recommend Scotts Wood and am so very happy with our choice to send her there - she even shouts "home" when she arrives, which is wonderful to see.

Our daughter has been attending Scotts Wood Day Nursery for over a year now. From when she first started at 8 months old, the staff and environment made us feel comfortable and relaxed, and our daughter settled in straight away. We are always impressed with the activities they do and how engaged the
staff are with the children. They are all really professional but also very caring and really just feel like extended family and have a real investment in how well the children are doing. It is an excellent day nursery, and we would recommend it.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.946)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.946) out of 10 for Partou Scotts Wood 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 4.946 for Partou Scotts Wood Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (193 Excellents x 5) + (11 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.946

  • 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 Scotts Wood 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 63 number of registered child places is 12.6, 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.
