The Partou experience
At Partou, the children lead the way. They explore their surroundings and learn about the world they live in, by choosing for themselves which activity they want to join in with next.
Our team are there to care for them and keep them safe. To nurture their emerging abilities and encourage them to seize each fun-packed day. But not to tell them what to do next.
Why? Because when children are allowed to choose their own activities, rather than being told what to do, they naturally choose the activities they’re most interested in. And scientific research has shown that being interested in what they’re doing is the easiest and best way for children to learn.
Food & nutrition
Creating healthy eating habits for young children stretches far beyond their time with us. It encourages a lifelong positive relationship with food whilst building healthy bodies and healthy minds. Here’s how we encourage healthy eating habits:
- Rotating menus: Evidence shows regular exposure to foods helps children to develop their taste for them, yet we still want to offer variety. So, we rotate our menus on a three-to-four-week basis, offering the perfect balance between exposing children to new foods yet allowing them to become familiar with flavours.
- A lunchtime focus: We prioritise lunch as a time where children can enjoy their food. There is a social aspect to all lunches and, where possible, children are encouraged to take an active interest in the food they eat.
- Fresh food everyday: We serve children fresh food every day and accommodate many different dietary requirements. We have procedures in place to protect children with food allergies and offer different meal options too. If your child has a dietary requirement, simply let us know as part of our registration process and we’ll make sure we meet the needs of your child.

Cherry Trees is one of the best nurseries in the area.

My child loves going to the nursery and has made many friends there. Four members of staff in particular are her carers and she talks about them all the time. I can trust my child to be in the nursery thriving.

Such a great nursery, my son enjoys it a lot. The practitioners are caring and patient.

My experience with all the Cherry Trees Day Nursery has been really good. My son was very young when he started nursery (9 months) and they took very good care of him. They (and especially one member of staff) never gave up and were constantly comforting him and letting him adapt to the new environme...

Even though the nursery is quite busy, my ten month old baby settled effortlessly, which is a massive hurdle to overcome considering the different practitioners and activities for him, when coming from a quiet home-only environment. All possible due to the caring, attentive and loving nature of all s...
