Our little boy has been attending Scott’s Wood since August last year, and he absolutely loves it; he is so excited to attend and see his friends and the staff.
I was very apprehensive about sending him to the nursery, but seeing the big smile he has every time makes me feel so much better!

Our daughter thoroughly enjoys going to nursery, the staff are all lovely and extremely caring. They keep us updated on what she is doing each day and they have really made a difference in her confidence, social skills and her overall learning. We couldn’t be happier with the nursery and each member
of staff.

Our son has always been extremely happy at nursery. He has access to a wide variety of toys and games and plays outdoors too - whatever the weather. The staff are extremely attentive and caring. Couldn’t ask for a happier environment for our son.

Our positive experience of Scott's Wood started from our first step through the door. After looking at other highly-rated nurseries, we were immediately struck by the friendly staff and homely environment. The baby room is a safe haven for little ones, as are all the other rooms. We have always had
confidence our son was in good hands. In the two-and-a-half years our son has been at Scott's Wood, we've had nothing but wonderful things to say. Likewise, our son now tells us: 'I've had a lovely day'. This is testament to the huge effort on the part of the staff and management to care for the children. In what has been a challenging year for all, the nursery has impressed us with their policies and genuine care for the whole family. One example of this; following national lockdown, the staff worked with us to adopt various coping strategies that would allow our son extra tools to adjust to the big changes of returning to nursery life.

Both of our children have been through Scotts Wood. We have been very happy with the nursery. The staff genuinely care and have looked after our children excellently. Our children have been well taught and learnt lots of new skills, which they often then demonstrate at home. The nursery is also well
managed.

The team at Scott's Wood are fantastic. Our daughter has been going since she was 9 months old, she is 2 and a half now and has loved every minute, there's never a time when she isn't happy to be dropped off and she is always beaming when we pick her up. The team make it as easy as possible for parents,
without exception all are friendly, happy to help and work with us at every stage... It's a real homely environment. The online tapestry updates are really well done and thoughtful. The way the team have handled the last few months during Covid-19 has been exceptional. I only have positive things to say.

Scotts Wood Day Nursery has been a dream come true for our family. With having no family around my husband and I, we were hoping to find somewhere that we trusted wholeheartedly with our son. I had stayed at home with him for his first two years, so it was difficult for me to “let go”. That being said,
from the day we first toured Scotts Wood, we felt at home. The staff are incredibly warm and friendly, everyone greets you when you walk in and on your way out. It immediately made me feel comforted knowing he was in loving and caring hands. His key teachers have been absolutely brilliant, and keep us updated weekly on what activities he’s been doing in his sessions as well as developmental notes that we can access anytime through our online portal. I cannot say enough good things about the nursery and the people that work there. They’ve made our transition into nursery so smooth and have helped our son grow in so many ways.

Our son has settled in and bonded with his key worker so well thanks to the warm and calming environment and genuinely caring nature of the team. The small baby room was perfect for his needs when he joined in November 2019 and we’re excited now for his move to the next room for lots more messy play
and new experiences.

Having moved from the London area to Nottingham, we were looking for a welcoming nursery to help our little one settle in, whilst offering a nurturing environment. Having visited a few nurseries, Scotts Wood seemed ideal and our experience since then reassures us that the right decision was made. Our
child just seems so happy and content. The staff have been great since the first day, welcoming us and our child. Any questions we've had have been answered quickly and thoroughly. We receive regular feedback about our child, whether this be through the nursery staff engaging with us or being able to use the Tapestry system to see how our child is progressing. We're really happy with everything so far and can't recommend the nursery enough.

Our son has been attending the nursery for almost a year now and it’s been a pleasure to see his progress and development blossom throughout this time. He is completely settled and happy and I rest in the knowledge that he is looked after by a fantastic team of nurturing and caring staff who create
personal connections with the children, in wonderful homely surroundings. He leaves after a day at nursery having had a great time and I have never questioned the decision to choose the nursery from day one. The staff are all friendly and approachable which makes the atmosphere of the nursery very welcoming. Highly recommended.

Our daughter attended Scotts Wood as a baby and has recently left to start her new chapter at primary school. They provide a safe and nurturing environment whilst allowing the children to have fun and develop their learning. Our daughter has thrived at Scotts Wood and this is down to the care and support
she received throughout her time there. The staff at Scotts Wood are amazing and there has never been a day where we have questioned our decision to choose this childcare provider.

The nursery were really accommodating when I was in between jobs and have really provided a high level of support for me and my husband. We really rely on them as we have so little support elsewhere. The settling in period was great and they were extremely helpful and professional. Would definitely
recommend.

My two boys have been very happy at Scotts Wood Nursery. They both started from the babies room straight up until starting school. The staff in each and every room have been very good at keeping me updated and injecting lots of fun in their nursery life - as well as that balance of care. The quality
of food is also very food at the nursery, and all the meat is from a local butcher. My youngest has just left the nursery to start school, and I feel his readiness was completely down to his key worker in Magic Attic. She has been brilliant at getting him ready for school. Thank you to all at the nursery.

My son has been attending Scotts Wood for a year now and is so happy here. The staff are very professional and build genuinely caring relationships with all of the children. My son felt completely settled within the setting within 2 weeks of starting. The facilities are great, he loves to spend time
in the garden and always leaves happy, well-fed and cared for.
The managers are really helpful in dealing with any financial matters and all of the care providers are friendly, approachable and clearly love their jobs.

My daughter attended nursery in the baby room for around six months. She will be returning as soon as I need to put her back into the nursery. The staff are amazing! My daughter's key person really built a bond with her. I always get a daily update on what my daughter has been doing during the day.
She has come on leaps and bounds in development since starting and I can’t wait for her to come back to this nursery! Thank you all!

I find the staff professional, well presented and of a cheerful nature. A mix of ages amongst the staff is a great blend of experience and knowledge, which enables my daughter to settle in well with all.


Activities are always changing and exciting for the children to do each time they visit nursery.

With the hot summer this year the management were very quick to add additional blinds, protective cover and air conditioning to the rainbow room.
Very much appreciated in the temperatures we reached.


The entire team are very supportive and have always helped accommodate my needs with childcare wherever possible.


Very happy with Scotts Wood Day Nursery.

I’m so impressed with this nursery and cannot recommend it enough. I was very anxious about putting my children into the nursery but I got a great feeling about Scotts Wood when we looked around. The facilities are excellent, very homely and the staff are fantastic with lots of experience. My sons have
settled in very quickly and can’t wait to get to nursery in the morning (even asking if they can go on a weekend)! Developmentally they’ve come on enormously since starting nursery and the online early learning journal is a great tool, where I can see their progress and key stages. The food is all homemade, very nutritious and the outdoor space is great. Brilliant nursery.

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.

Job Title: Nursery Manager

I have worked at Scott’s Wood since 2001 and am very proud to be the Manager of such a beautiful and high quality ‘Early Years’ setting. I am committed to further improving our already very high standards, and creating an exceptional ‘Early Years’ experience for babies and young children here in the leafy suburbs of West Bridgford.


Early years has always been my passion and while working here at Scott’s Wood I have completed both a Foundation Degree in Early Years and Education, and BA Honours Degree in Early Childhood Studies and I use my extended knowledge and understanding daily to ensure that we provide the very best environments and experiences for both our children and their parents.
