I'm really satisfied with this nursery.
My son is really happy to go; his relationship with the staff is wonderful. He feels confident and safe with them and loved.
He has made a lot of friends and his ability to socialise has increased. He has also learned and improved a variety of skills that really
help me in his general education.
He experiences different activities every day, so he can learn while enjoying his time.
Thanks to the nursery and with their support, he became a confident and almost bilingual. (English is not his first language).

My daughter joined Playaway when she was 7 months old. The care she has received has been fantastic. Every member of staff knows her and greets her in a morning. She is looked after brilliantly and I have no hesitation recommending the nursery to others. Fantastic garden and they play out most days.
They also do day trips/walks around and about (or to see the trains!) She eats better at nursery than at home. Her social skills have come on amazingly since being there and every day she seems to come home learning something knew. They do lots of arts, crafts and messy play and are taught manners (please and thank you's) straight away. All the staff are fab and genuinely seem to care.

Blown away with the enthusiasm of all the staff! They all seem to genuinely love their jobs, which makes it reassuring and we have full confidence that our girls are in good hands.

Our little boy has been going to this nursery since 7 months old and he is now 2.5 yrs. We absolutely love this nursery and so does our little boy. Seeing his beaming face whilst he is there, everything he learns and how he is looked after is priceless. We only have fantastic comments when speaking
about this nursery. Every member of staff work together to make it what it is and that is simply FANTASTIC. Thank you for all you do and well done.

Really happy with Play Away and the care my son receives. I can see he is developing well and enjoys going to nursery. It's great to see he is able to form friendships and can tell me what he's been up to during his day. Pre-school has definitely had a positive effect on him and our family.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.854)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.854) out of 10 for Partou Play Away 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 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 4.859 for Partou Play Away Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (63 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.859

  • 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 3.995 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Play Away Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 76 number of registered child places is 15.2. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 15.2 = 0.395

  • 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.
