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.

My goddaughter has attended this nursery for just over a year now. That staff have always been so lovely to me and really supportive of her development. The staff always give me detailed handovers and let me know how she has been during the day. She is always seen to be doing amazing activities and g...

We could not ask for more from the manager and the team. They care for our boys and have their best interests at heart. They track their development and they have both come on so much in their care. The boys have developed such strong bonds with the team and their key workers.

At the beginning of my daughter's start at Flower Pots, there was a lot of staff turnover and it was quite hard to get a grasp of who was looking after my child. Since starting pre school room, and the staff (who are consistent in the room) two staff in particular are amazing, my daughter always sp...

Flower Pots is a lovely nursery with a home-from-home family atmosphere. The staff care deeply about the children and they make every effort to enrich their days. There are some beautiful wooden toys in the baby room. The staff are excellent and I highly recommend this nursery.

We moved our daughter to Flower Pots in April 2023 when she was just over a year old. She settled really well into the baby room and is now transitioning to the toddler room. She is so happy and thriving, we're so pleased with the care and nurturing she is receiving. The core staff really seem to gen...

Nursery is amazing, nursery staff are so caring and attentive. My child comes in and goes away very happy. Leaving my baby in Flower Pots doesn't give me anxiety like with previous childcare arrangements. I would recommend it to anyone. Keep up the good work, children appreciate it and so do us paren...

My child enjoys going to this nursery. It's nice to see how the staff interact with the children. My child has been going to this nursery for a few years now and there have been a few changes over this time but I am very happy with the current set-up and the staff. They have recently introduced an ap...

Amazing nursery, Lovely layout and beautiful place. Could not fault the girls in the toddler room, my son loves the girls and even talks about them at home. Didn't ever need to worry about the safety or well-being of my child. My son's speech has come on so much since starting. He now knows his colou...

Staff work incredibly hard to keep all those in their care safe and happy. There seem to be lots of different activities on offer and the children spend lots of time out in the lovely garden. We can see that in just a few weeks our children have developed and learnt new skills. We love seeing the upd...

New joiner for 2022, and enjoying our settling in and regular sessions. The toddler room staff are so personable and lovely, my little one has settled in quickly. The only criticism I have is to do with the lack of payment options, but that is absolutely no reflection on the staff as they are grea...

My children (1.5yrs and 4yrs) love their days at Flower Pots Nursery. The staff are so warm and friendly, they always have smiles on their faces and greet every child by name. It feels like the new management team has brought a breath of fresh air and some great new ideas. The baby room has a b...

I can’t recommend this nursery enough, my daughter always loves her time there and practically breaks down the door in the mornings. She’s learned loads since joining and her key worker always updates us on developments, plus the play activities are always vast and varied. So much messy play, Iâ€...

My baby girl attends the nursery as my older son. My son has been there since he was 9 months old although there has been a lot of staff come and go I couldn’t honestly ask for anyone better to look after my son. One member of staff, in particular, is his absolute world sometimes he even wants to g...
