My little one has been going to Old town for a year now and she absolutely loves going to nursery, I think she has more fun there than at home. Lovely staff who show so much care towards my child. They welcome us with a smile everyday and it makes me so happy to see her so happy to go there. She talks
about the staff all the time and says she's excited to go and play at nursery with her friends. It took us a while to find the right nursery and as soon as we walked in we knew this was the one.

We've always had a really good experience with Old Town Day Nursery. My toddler has been here since she was 8 months old and always been well cared for. She loves it here and always has constructive days here. I would always recommend this nursery to other mums.

the staff at Old Town Day Nursery are all very helpful and friendly and have done a wonderful job of settling our daughter into nursery life. The activities are varied and engaging and lots of fun. It's a lovely open and bright space that the children play in and a good outdoor space too. We have been
very happy with our choice.

My daughter has attended the nursery since February 2022. She settled into the nursery so well; this is down to the fantastic staff. The staff were instrumental in her progress, from teaching her to walk and increasing her vocabulary. Our daughter is always so excited and happy to go to nursery. The
manager is amazing and always knows what is going on in the nursery. The staff hand-off at the end of a full day is great, and they always provide you with all the information you need. And if you are in a rush, not a problem, the information is updated on the app every day. It's a great nursery, which I highly recommend.

Very good nursery, my two boys have developed in their language and social skills.
They love the nursery so much, to get them to bed early we use the nursery as an incentive. ie. if you don't go to bed on time you won't go to nursery!

My son is four and is coming to the end of his time at the nursery. He has been here from 12-months-old, and every step of his journey has been amazing. He loves every member of staff; they are all so caring, fun and attentive. Whilst we are sad to be leaving, they have prepared him well for big school,
and he has all the confidence, ability to make friends, empathy for others and a wild imagination, very much due to the start he had at Old Town Day Nursery.

This nursery is a small and friendly nursery that my child attends. She is happy and content when I see her and shouts for joy when it is a nursery day. I am with the new garden area and look forward to what happens next.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.429)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.429) out of 10 for Partou Old Town Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 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 4.611 for Partou Old Town Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (69 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 108 Ratings = 4.611

  • 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 4.818 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Partou Old Town 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 49 number of registered child places is 9.8. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.8 = 0.918

  • 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.
