We have been extremely pleased with our son's development from 10 months when he started to 21 months. The nursery has been able to teach him many things we might not have done at home, such as communal eating, art and messy play, playtime with his friends, free playtime in a safe secure environment.
Allowing him to explore different foods and normalise a lot of new activities for him e.g. tidying up.

Our baby has settled very well in this nursery where the staff is extremely kind and caring. There are many activities available to keep babies busy and encourage their development. The only downsides are the lack of outside space of a dedicated and isolated sleeping area in the baby room, and an important
staff turnover.

My elder daughter goes to nursery preschool more than 2 years now. She is extremely happy and looks forward to going there every day. I decided to send my younger daughter to your nursery form 4 months old and so far she enjoys being there and grows up safely and steadily. I really want to thank all
the staff for taking care of them so well. I cannot thank them enough.

We are extremely happy with our choice and decision to send our son to Merchant Square day Nursery. He developed in various areas to our full satisfaction and we are impressed by how much positive stimulation he gets from the nursery staff and other babies, everyone. We experienced up to now great continuity
of the staff who is incredible, caring and loving with the babies. They encourage the babies to learn every day something new and offer a relaxed and positive social environment.

I have been overall very satisfied with this nursery. The staff is caring and easy going regarding parent requests. The kids seem to be very close to their caregivers and this is very important. The management has been so far very flexible, good at communicating and no surprises on anything - good consistent
care of our kids. The main drawback is the lack of outdoor space but kids are often taken out for walks. If I could think of one area of improvement that would be the food as even if plenty of fruit is provided, it is a bit carb heavy - toast, pasta, sandwich, wraps etc.

Merchant Square Day Nursery is the best. They have taken amazing care of our baby girl. I always know I'm leaving her in a caring, clean, happy environment. Her teachers are so attentive and knowledgeable. They have helped my daughter stay on track with all of her milestones and grow into a thriving

When your child asks if they can go to nursery today (like mine does!) it fills you with the confidence of their experiences.
Merchant Square Day Nursery is warm and friendly has a relaxed feel and the staff actively ensure alignment of learning between home and nursery.
There are children from all
different backgrounds which makes it a great place to grow and learn.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.416)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.416) out of 10 for Partou Merchant Square Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 9 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 4.766 for Partou Merchant Square Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (84 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 107 Ratings = 4.766

  • 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 4.65 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Merchant Square Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 60 number of registered child places is 12. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 12 = 0.75

  • 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 hold a level 4 qualification in Childcare and Education, and I have had the privilege of working with children of all ages during my childcare experience since 2005. I am very proud to be able to work with children in their Early Years; being an educator at the most crucial stage in children’s lives. I believe that the first five years of a child’s life are the foundations that support happiness, health, social skills, and emotional intelligence. I am lucky enough to be in a position where I can inspire, support and provide training to driven and dedicated team members who share our vision.
