My daughter is very happy at the nursery, she loves going there in the morning, she plays, learns a lot, she does a lot of manual activities and she is very happy. We are French and my daughter speaks English fluently and knows a lot of things in English, all this is thanks to the nursery. I highly
recommend.

My daughter started at Leo's 4 months ago and I have been really impressed & delighted at how well it's gone. The introduction was smooth with a few settling in sessions to help her get used to it. Her key worker is kind, thoughtful and caring but most importantly for me, really knows her and has spent
time understanding how to interact with her, comfort her and develop her. My daughter's speech has massively developed since she started. The nursery is very pragmatic - cares deeply but doesn't pander or call parents with every tiny thing! I have a conversation with her key worker every morning and afternoon so feel fully informed in a very personal way. I like that every single member of staff knows my daughter and clearly interacts with her a lot. The food is a little underwhelming but I sense that is common place in nurseries, my daughter comes home happy & fed every day.

I cannot praise them enough, without a doubt the nursery has got her ready for School, the only problem is she does want to leave. She has come on leaps and bounds while being at the nursery and she has made some great friends as well.

All the staff are kind & attentive and care about our daughter. There are multiple activities organised every one of the 3 days she attends and despite her not being there five days a week it really feels like she is building a positive bond with the staff and the nursery. (At least by levels of happiness/not
crying at drop off). Would recommend it as a great nursery experience so far.
Thanks.

My daughter had a lovely time at Leo's, she absolutely loves everyone. The staff are so caring, even the ladies that take care of the babies were so nice to her when they saw her. She felt loved, comfortable and safe.
A big thank you to all the staff, you're all amazing and will be dearly missed by
all of us.

My daughter has recently moved up from the baby room to toddlers - she settled very quickly into the new room. The staff have been great the whole time: they are warm and welcoming and always communicate how she is doing, either through the EYLog app or in person. Thank you!

My daughter has settled so well at Leo’s nursery, West Bridgford - the baby room was really lovely and the staff were amazing! She has recently just moved up to toddlers and the transition has been so smooth and she is really happy. All the staff are great and so friendly, I couldn’t recommend the nursery
enough!

We have absolutely loved our experience with Leo's Day Nursery - West Bridgford. We knew as soon as we visited that it was the right fit. Everyone has been so welcoming and our son loves it. They send regular development targets and achievements and update us daily on what he has been doing. We love
the nursery and would happily recommend it to anyone looking.

Leo’s is a great nursery. They’re really accommodating as our little one had to go dairy free at the request of our doctor and it wasn’t an issue.
The staff are brilliant and you can tell they love working at the nursery.

Leo's Day Nursery - West Bridgford is doing an amazing job, given the pressures of the sector. My daughter's key person has a gentle but reasonable and age-appropriate approach and is always available for a chat. I like that it is a smaller nursery, where you quickly know everyone and the children can
mingle across ages and rooms too. It is not too fancy but the food is good and mostly homemade. Limitations are often due to a lack of time/staff (as everywhere in the sector), so sometimes a nappy is changed late and new staff learn the best approaches as they go along. My daughter absolutely loves it though.

Leo's has been excellent for our son's. Confidence, progress and overall development. We love the staff, the setting and the food he's been given. We could not have had a better nursery experience. We really felt the staff cared, which meant a lot to us. Excellent all-round.

Coming from a different part of the world, it was really a tense moment as a father to see how my daughter adjusts to a new environment. I am so grateful to Leo's Day Nursery - West Bridgford for accepting my daughter with such care and hospitality. The centre staff were so cooperative that we were
astonished to see our daughter getting attached to the nursery in a weeks time. There has not been a single day from the date of her admission that she refused to go to nursery, on the contrary, she would crave to go when she was ill.
On behalf of my wife and myself would like to say a big thank you and would highly recommend the nursery.

My daughter started Leo's in the toddler room and is now leaving to go to school. During her time here the staff have shown so much care and really had a positive influence on her development. She has been very happy here and I would warmly recommend the nursery.

Leo’s is such a lovely, welcoming nursery for the children. I am very pleased with how they have been over the past year with the current situation. My son, who is now 6, previously attended here and now my daughter does, who is nearly 2. The staff are very helpful and I couldn’t say a bad word about
it.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.627)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.627) out of 10 for Partou Leo's 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 8 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.875 for Partou Leo's Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (85 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 96 Ratings = 4.875

  • 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 4.752 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Leo's 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 42 number of registered child places is 8.4. 8 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.4 = 0.952

  • 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.

Sue Nesbitt

Job Title: Nursery Manager

Joined: 2010

I qualified with Early Years Teacher Status in 2011, but have worked in Early Years since 1998. I have had a long relationship with this nursery, initially as a parent choosing it for my youngest daughter. I think it was the homely, warm and welcome feeling I picked up on when viewing the nursery that was the deciding factor. The nursery as it is today is a product of many years of developing and nurturing that ethos. Our parents tell us that the relationship they have with us feels like a part of their extended family.


Before becoming Manager of the nursery in 2010, I developed my experience of working closely with children as a Practitioner. This has given me the experience and knowledge over the years to develop a deep understanding of children’s needs in terms of their development, care and well being.
