My baby started in January and I couldn't be happier. The staff are so friendly and she bonded straight away with them, all the children seem really happy, stimulated and settled. The app is great and provides plenty of updates throughout the day which is so lovely seeing how much fun she is having. Her needs are more than met and the staff have spent time getting to know her which is so reassuring. A great choice of nursery

My son attends this nursery setting three times a week as every parent leaving their child at the nursery i felt really apprehensive at the start however the staff have been amazing always making me feel reassured and at ease. My son loves coming to nursery and is always happy when coming in and going home! Well done to all the staff in baby room and toddlers you've been doing a fantastic job with my son since March last year. Thank you

My son is autistic and non verbal and I really struggled to find him a nursery until we found Fern Bank. They were the only nursery that would accept him without having to travel significant miles away from home. It can take him a bit to settle and the staff are kind and caring and have persevered and learnt to understand his needs over time. He loves playing outside and there is good outdoor space and activities, and the rooms inside are spacious with toys and activities. I am grateful that he has a place to go other than family or home. If you're an SEN parent you will probably know how difficult it can be to find a setting, so full credit to them for accepting my son when others wouldn't. I would be happy to recommend this nursery

My child has always struggled trusting new people, I was worried how he would be when he first started going to nursery, but after 2 days of being there I could tell he was completely comfortable with all the members of staff, he is so excited to get to nursery every morning I couldn't imagine having to send him elsewhere!

Partou Fern Bank is a fantastic nursery. My son has been attending the nursery since 2022 and he is so happy and loves attending each day, in fact, he sometimes doesn't want to come home! The nursery staff are really friendly and down to earth and take great care of my son. The nursery has improved even further under the new management team and the Forest School and Jo Jingles are great additions as is the parent app. Thank you to all the team for always being welcoming and looking after my boy so well!

My child has been attending the nursery for a short time, and although the initial transition had some challenges, the impact of Partou's involvement has been overwhelmingly positive. Changes like the introduction of the library scheme and better communication through the app have significantly improved the nursery environment. The staff and management consistently show warmth, kindness, and a genuine commitment to the children's well-being. It's clear they have my child's best interests at heart, seen in the joy he shows when arriving each morning. The food smells wonderful when I arrive early, and my child is always happy with the meals provided. While the outdoor space could use some updates, the activities provided are both sufficient and engaging. Overall, I'm confident in the care my child receives and look forward to continued positive experiences. The positive atmosphere and ongoing improvements continuously reassure me about my child's development in this nurturing environment

My daughter goes to Fern Bank and I am really impressed. Staff are lovely, always welcoming and smiling. The new management team have worked so hard to create new environments and more opportunities for the children. The food is great, they cater to our dietary requirements and always make sure my daughter is well fed. I like that they have CCTV in the rooms, it gives extra peace of mind. Nothing is too much trouble, staff are available for any questions and always give lots of information on my daughters day. Thank you everyone!

This nursery is great, my daughter loves it, and everything from the activities to the food has been amazing. The staff are so friendly and so lovely with the children. My daughter has been going since she was around 14 months old and she has developed greatly since then. The rooms are really nicely designed, and it's a really fun, well-equipped layout with large outdoor areas. Thank you to everyone who works there!

My daughter has just started here and settled really well. The staff in her room are lovely and she is well cared for. The menu is varied and there is always an alternative option to accommodate her allergies, the food looks delicious!

Our little boy has been at the nursery for over a year. Initially, he struggled to settle in and was upset each time but the staff have been absolutely fantastic and gradually he's settled. He now gets excited to go to to nursery and always says he's enjoyed it. I'm so pleased that we stuck with it and so grateful to the staff for their patience and kindness.

My little boy moved to this nursery recently and I can not recommend it enough. The staff are amazing and go that extra mile for each child and support them in any way they need. Their food menu is out of this world my little one has additional needs and struggles with textures etc but he absolutely loves the food there is so much for the children to do with a large outdoor area, and plenty for children to do and learn, and support for the parents.

My son started this nursery in April 2024 and has loved it. He was upset to be left in the mornings but the staff were great with him to calm him down and he eventually got better. I now can't get him to leave at pick-up. All the staff are lovely and communicate with you at drop off and pick up. You can see that all the staff love their jobs and do their best for all the children. Management is absolutely great and the support they offer to you and your child is fantastic, you are kept up to date with processes, etc. My son came from another nursery and some things were picked up straight away with Fern Bank management told me straight away, explained clearly what would happen next, and kept me up to date with everything, the staff provided support to him at the nursery and he is improving each and every day. They also cater to different allergies. The food is good and he loves all his meals provided.

Very good nursery with a variety of activities each day for the children to have fun and learn, great staff that go above and beyond to help and always engage well with parents and communicate what your child has been doing each day.

Fern Bank is an amazing nursery! My youngest has been there since 9 months old (2 years old now) and they've gone above and beyond to get him settled in and help him grow into a happy and confident little man. He's there full-time and is always happy to be dropped off, and always busy playing happily when I pick him up. I've had a couple of nursery experiences with my older child, and have been really impressed with Fern Bank. The staff are so kind, patient, and caring, they always encourage my son to learn and try new things. I'm so glad I chose them and would recommend them to anyone.

I am more than happy and satisfied with my daughter's experience in this place. All the staff are lovely and friendly. My daughter was looking forward to going to the nursery in the morning and she never made a fuss of being there. I will definitely, recommend this nursery for anyone who is looking for a safe, friendly and healthy environment for his child. Thanks Fern Bank Nursery staff.

We are extremely happy with this nursery. My daughter enjoys going and doesn’t cause a fuss when being dropped off, which speaks volumes. I would like it if the children went outside more, on walks, etc. The food is very varied, and they were happy to adapt to different dietary requirements when we were testing things out for medical purposes.
