Both my children attend Apples & Cherries, my oldest one has just left which I am very upset about. They love the teachers and they have come on leaps and bounds since being there. I am very happy with Apples and Cherries, my children are very happy there. Would highly recommend this nursery.

Our daughter loves Apples and Cherries, she has been attending for over a year now and her development has been enhanced by the care that she has received. She started in the baby room and is now in the toddler room. The nursery has had new owners recently who seem to be making positive changes (e.g.
plans to update the garden etc). We are very happy with Apples and Cherries!

Our under-2-year-old son has thrived at Apples and Cherries Nursery. He is happy to go and is always absorbed in activity when we collect him. His speech has improved and he is more adventurous with his food thanks to the staff.
Safeguarding is given a high priority and I have always been satisfied
with the children's safety. There is excellent partnership working with parents, sharing of observations, linked to development in real-time and good communication. All staff are kind and provide excellent stimulation. We unreservedly recommend this nursery.

Facilities, communication and location - the top 3 factors that led me to choose this nursery for my child and I never regretted my decision. Facilities are roomy with lots of different activities and toys that are beneficial for child development not just for the fun. All staff members are very kind
and caring, always give updates of the day but most importantly help your child to grow and glow every day. Refurbishment has been done recently and more improvements are to come. The nursery has a car park to drop off and pick up kids which is great, however, it needs fixing ASAP. My child is very happy to go to nursery and I want to thank management and all Big Apples room staff members!

My son has been at nursery for almost three years. A couple of months ago the nursery was sold to the new owners. There have been a few changes. Furniture, days, planning to refurbish the garden and play zones. Teachers are very friendly and always happy to help with everything. My son never complains
and he is happy to come every day. I always recommend the nursery to my friends.

Our child was at this nursery from 2021 through 2023. We'd previously moved from a different nursery where communication was a major problem, so we especially appreciated how communicative and transparent the staff were. For instance, when there were issues with covid, they emailed and called anyone
affected the same day to make sure the message was received; when a person connected to the nursery passed away (through nothing having to do with the nursery) they contacted those affected directly, and arranged with parents to offer grief support to kids. Just amazing.
They were always in tune with our child's mood and always ready to discuss any issues at home or at nursery. They are very careful with documenting any injury/incident which gave us a real sense of safety. Our child absolutely loved the staff there, and would even say he missed them on the weekends! Their food and curriculum also seemed excellent.
The management changed in Autumn 2023 but I hope it remains excellent!

My son comes home happy every day and it's thanks to the amazing staff at the nursery and what they do for my son is wonderful. It's run well from the bottom to the very top where the manager does lots for the nursery and is an asset to the place. Highly recommended.

I was so impressed by the presentation, cleanliness and hygiene of the nursery upon arrival to pick up my niece, the staff are very polite and professional and I can tell that everything is very organised and thorough. I have a baby on the way and in all honestly, I will not take my childcare anywhere
other than Apples and Cherries Nursery. I really am looking forward to settling my baby here and seeing the progress on her journey as she grows into a young infant!

Apples & Cherries have been amazing since my son registered early this year. I’ve split with my partner and have my boy every other weekend, I usually collect him on Fridays but because I work & live in the city I’m usually late to collect him yet that has never been a issue at this nursery.
They are always offering ways to support since me & my partner split to make sure my son feels safe and is well taken care of.


His mum has done a good job of choosing this nursery

I am the aunt of one of the babies in the nursery. Every time she comes home she’s so excited to talk about all the activities her teachers and friends are involved in. This nursery is one of the best, as I really feel that she’s so comfortable with everyone there; almost as if it was a second family.

I am very happy with Apples and Cherries Day Nursery. Before my child started the nursery, I was very apprehensive and indecisive about sending my child to a nursery until my child attended this nursery. On my child's first day the staff and the children made my child feel very welcome. My child didn't
even kiss me goodbye! The staff reassured me, my child is in safe hands and my child will have lots of fun things to tell me by the end of the day - that's exactly what my child did. Apples and Cherries Day Nursery appeared to create a good learning environment that stimulates and encourages growth and development.
That was important for me to know when deciding on a nursery for my child. My child is now confident, not shy, excelling in their learning and achieving. My child was struggling to count, read and had little interest or confidence at home but now you can't keep my child away from a book! I can't thank the nursery enough for all the hard work and support that you have given to my child and me!

My son recently graduated from Apples and Cherries and has made a fabulous transition to primary school.
The preparation and support that was provided to my son was beyond measure. He has settled so well into Primary school and is excelling in his learning.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.891)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.891) out of 10 for Partou Apples & Cherries 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.891 for Partou Apples & Cherries Day Nursery & Pre-school is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (17 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 192 Ratings = 4.891

  • 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 Apples & Cherries Day Nursery & Pre-school is based on 16 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 74 number of registered child places is 14.8, which has been reached with 16 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.
