I can't recommend this nursery enough. My daughter was just over 4 months old when she started and they have been amazing. Constant reassurance and updates meant that I could relax at work. They care for my daughter like she is family. The standard of care is extremely high. My daughter is thriving
with the staff there. Thank you so much for everything you do for her.

Since my daughter has been at Jack and Jill Day Nursery Upton, she has come on leaps and bounds. The staff are kind and caring and amazing with kids. My daughter loves going and I love hearing about her day, she is always so happy when I pick her up. My daughter required person-centered care and the
nursery went above and beyond to complete a support plan and cater to her needs.

My little boy has come to this nursery since he was 7 months old and has loved it. That being said since the manager joined back end of last year (2023) he has come on leaps and bounds. I have given some real concerns about previous management/advice or lack of received and the manager has literally
turned both my husband and me around the other way. She has been on hand and supported further things we have needed that were never done. The staff are more relaxed and can see they are thriving and it’s such a lovely thing to see. Sad for my little one to be leaving in September and so glad the manager came in when she did, only sad it wasn’t sooner. The staff are so lovely and engaged with the kids and the activities that now happen with parent interaction are amazing.

I feel relaxed leaving my child each morning. Huge improvements have been made to the setting and it is very well run. You feel like part of a wider family that takes an interest in all members of the family. I would highly recommend 5*.

Fantastic nursery! My twin boys have been here for eight months now, and they absolutely love it! They run through the door without looking back. Staff are kind, caring and really do take great interest in the children. They make such a fuss of them both, and the boys love them all. They listen carefully
to special requirements and are very good at working together with parents and the children’s home-nursery life, keeping the routine the same. The manager is very supportive and listens to any concerns around the children and will do her best to help.
The nursery is clean and colourful and has a huge garden space. They are always celebrating holiday occasions days doing activities and making things.
They have a special app that is updated with photographs of the children, a message of what they’ve been doing for the day and what they have learnt. Since attending, both boys have come on so much with their understanding and speech. But most importantly, all children and staff look happy! Highly recommended

My son has been attending Jack and Jill Day Nursery Upton for almost two years. He runs in almost every day and talks a lot about the staff and other children when he's not there.
All three of my children have been to this nursery, and the consistency of care has been high throughout. The staff clearly
know the children very well.
I particularly appreciate the daily updates we have via the app, which allows me to see what kind of activities he has been doing during the day.
The staff have always been supportive and flexible, and have been great in supporting my son through potty training.
I recommend this nursery to any friends of mine who live locally!

I couldn't be happier with my little boy attending this nursery. He always goes in and leaves happy. Throughout my day at work, I always look forward to seeing an updated picture on his learning book, and every time, he is smiling and being kept entertained by the girls. I feel safe with him in their
presence, and he is always well looked after during his time in the nursery. He has also come on unimaginable amounts thanks to the manager and the girls.

My child is fairly reserved around those other than family but absolutely loves going to Jack and Jill. I can see he loves those caring for him and vice versa. The menu is also fantastic, exposing him to a variety of foods.

I have had two children attend Jack and Jill Day Nursery Upton. My youngest is still there, and he runs into the nursery every day and is always excited to go. He loves the bond he's made with the staff, and they always do their best to make sure he is happy and safe. I can see what he's been up to
every day through the learning book, so I don't miss out on anything. The team here are so friendly and do such a great job with the kids.

My daughter has been attending Jack and Jill Day Nursery after moving from another nursery in the local area, and I can honestly say it was the best decision we made moving her. Every morning she is so excited to attend and always comes home in a brilliant mood and full of energy. The learning book
app, in which the staff upload personal pictures is a great insight into what my daughter gets up to during her time at nursery, and it’s really lovely to see the variety of activities which encourage her learning.

My son, who is very clingy and selective with food is now settling in well, is independent and has improved social skills.
Also, the manager and staff are considerate and welcoming. Thanks to you all.

My daughter was very shy when she joined the nursery a few months ago; she loves coming now and is always so happy to tell me about her day and the activities she did. She tells me how much she likes her teachers and friends.

My daughter has been going since she was 12 months old and loved every minute of it. The staff are amazing and I can’t fault them in anyway at all. It was a really sad day when my daughter had to leave however we are eternally great as a family and all the staff played an integral part of her development
I can’t recommend enough.
Thank you for everything.

Our daughter loves her time at nursery. She is excited to go in the morning and clutches her nursery book at the door waiting to leave the house. The information we receive from staff is always detailed and personable and it has been great to see photos of her on the app. Recently she has had transition
visits to the toddler group and we are confident the team are preparing her well for the next stage. The manager and her staff are always friendly and knowledgeable and willing to answer questions.

The manager and the two girls in the baby room are so kind. They make me feel at ease when I leave my baby girl with them. When I pick her up they give me a little talk about how she’s been and what she has eaten. They will call me if they are worried about her being ill or has a high temperature. Overall
I was worried about leaving my daughter in a nursery but now I feel reassured that she is absolutely fine when she’s there. And she really enjoys being there she is always smiling when I pick her. She has a good variety of food and she eats all of it.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.266)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.266) out of 10 for Partou Upton 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 8 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 4.821 for Partou Upton Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (78 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 95 Ratings = 4.821

  • 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 4.445 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Upton Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 8 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 = 3.8

    • 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 62 number of registered child places is 12.4. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 12.4 = 0.645

  • 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.
