The staff are really friendly and always make our son feel welcome and happy. He settled in quickly and is now always very excited to attend! His key worker has been working really hard on his potty training which we have appreciated hugely. We are really happy with the nursery and the care and support
he is receiving.

Staff are all so polite, friendly and are so great with our little girl. It's been great seeing her grow up there. I just wish there was a bit more outside space but local park is a great alternative

I have mixed feelings about this nursery. Our son enjoyed his time there and the staff are nice but the turnover was really high and we were never sure who his keyworker was.
Unfortunately, a lot of the stuff we were told the children do on the tour never actually happened, we very rarely got updates
on our son's progress on the app though when we joined we were assured this would happen weekly. The food was never as advertised and really repetitive and lost count of how many times they were given cake, which is meant to be a treat but it started being a habit. I fed back to the management about our concerns many times but nothing ever changed.
There's no doubt that my son had fun and made lots of friends but the setting was really chaotic and now he is at a new pre-school he is much calmer and has a much more varied day of activities. I really didn't want to leave King Street but unfortunately, as our concerns were never addressed or acted upon so had no choice and have never looked back.

Kind and friendly staff, thorough handover given at end of the day, my child seems to enjoy his days there too. Staff could provide more photos of his day via the app as this only occurs once every 4-5 weeks currently, previous nurseries we’ve used have given daily updates of photos and learning logs.

My child has been with King Street Nursery since mid 2020. He has grown into such a confident boy with King Street Nursery. The staff are caring, welcoming and attentive - I cannot praise them enough! You know they are doing something right when your child comes home from nursery and looks forward to
the next day to go back in and says goodnight to his key workers and friends before going to bed! Although the nursery has limited outdoor space, it truly doesn't matter as they go for walks out and about. The nursery is also very transparent in their communication and will respond to queries in a timely manner. It is also nice to be receiving daily updates from the staff about my child's progress. I really like that they ensure that the kids are occupied with activities and have easy access to materials. It is good that they encourage the kids to be independent with daily tasks too. It is a lovely nursery in the city centre and I would definitely recommend it!

Amazing nursery with lovely staff who can’t do enough for the children. They have so many opportunities to join in the children’s learning and their weekly newsletter keeps you up to date with everything that is going on. My daughter absolutely loves it here!

My daughter has been attending the nursery now since March 2020. The staff have been amazing and really nurturing. She loves nursery and her friends and has started to ask.. ‘can I go to nursery tomorrow?’. I really love the fact that the nursery are flexible and adaptable and cater to different family
needs. My daughter has a cows milk allergy and they have been great at catering to her dietary needs. The start and finish times are also ideal for me as somebody who works long days. They also have so many lovely little touches and events which really bring a sense of joy and warmth within the nursery. I love seeing her journey from age 11 months to the present day and am really looking forward to witnessing her future development as she approaches school age.

I cannot praise King Street nursery enough. Our daughter has thrived there. All the staff are wonderful and supportive and really get to know your child. Our daughter has loved attending, made some lovely friends and I’m sad her time at nursery has come to an end - I wish she could go to school there!
Would definitely recommend - fantastic place.

I cannot praise this nursery setting enough. My baby started in March 2021 at 10 months old and being a lockdown baby she was not used to being left with other people or socialising with other children. The nursery staff were absolutely amazing and never made us feel like a burden for calling constantly
throughout the day. Fast forward 4 months and my daughter is thriving at nursery and her confidence has grown. Every person we have encountered at King Street has been supportive, friendly, and approachable.

My baby started here recently and I am really impressed with how well organised the settling in has been and how lovely all the members of staff are. It can't have been an easy task with the covid rules, however despite this, the nursery has worked really hard to ensure they create a welcoming place
for new children and parents in the early days. The rooms are really well thought out and create a lovely place for children to thrive. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Our little daughter attended the nursery full time from July 2020 to March 2021, she was 15 months when started.
The nursery staff have taken excellent care of our daughter, she has felt always loved and she really enjoyed the time there. The nurses are very sweet with the babies and give a lot of
information and useful comments at the end of the day. She changed a few classes as she grew older and the change was smooth and well organized.
They have plenty of activities to entertain the babies, they vary a lot during the week and the online portal where they upload assessments is very useful.
They have an outdoor space in a covered garden that is used a lot and they organise trips to local parks/harbourside etc.
They were always keen to accommodate the baby's needs, especially for nap time.
We had some personal issues and the nursery was able to extend our daughter's stay, which was very much appreciated.
Definitely recommended, it is an excellent nursery in the city centre.

Before our little one was born we looked around a few nurseries but Kings Street Nursery, Bristol City Centre stood out by miles. The staff were very friendly, the rooms are extremely welcoming with lots of activities to occupy the children and the whole building had a lovely feel to it. We are so
glad that we stuck with our first reaction, as our little one has flourished since joining Kings Street Nursery, Bristol City Centre. She has become a very confident and sociable little butterfly. We have daily updates from the staff and it's so nice to hear how much fun she has had throughout the day. As well as the room staff, the SENCO in particular is outstanding and we have been thoroughly impressed by the additional support that our little one has received. We only have positives for this nursery, it has been such a fantastic introduction to education for our little girl.

Both of our children have attended King Street Nursery, Bristol City Centre for several years and we are incredibly happy with the level of care they receive. The staff are absolutely lovely, they genuinely love working with the children and take personal interest in their happiness and development.
We’ve been supported at times when we’ve had challenges as a family, through everything from house moves, welcoming a new baby and potty training drama. I’ve always felt able to call the nursery for support, to make sure we’re all addressing challenges and events in the same, consistent way. The team clearly love their jobs and management has been consistent throughout our children’s time at nursery, which is also helpful for stability. The children enjoy a range of activities, going for walks, playing in the garden, lots of crafts and fun messy play. I know both children have built incredible bonds with their key workers. We’re so grateful and highly recommend King Street Nursery, Bristol City Centre.

I was so scared about leaving my little boy in nursery so I visited a few first and none of them compared to this one. Everyone was smiling and happy, especially the children. What an amazing atmosphere, I still cried when I left him but was safe in the knowledge that I could phone anytime I liked,
which I did. My son always comes home smiling, happy and talks about how much fun he's had. Plus the staff always talk to me about the adventures he's had at the end of his day. My sons taken a shine to every member of staff he's met, thank you King Street Nursery, Bristol City Centre for helping his first steps into school life.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.657)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.657) out of 10 for Partou King Street Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 41 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 4.657 for Partou King Street Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (350 Excellents x 5) + (120 Goods x 4) + (18 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 492 Ratings = 4.657

  • 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 King Street Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 41 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 99 number of registered child places is 19.8, which has been reached with 41 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.
