About this day nursery

Partou Yeadon Day Nursery & Pre-School, located in Leeds, LS19 7HR, has been operating since 2013 and earned a "Good" rating from Ofsted during its latest inspection on November 13, 2025. This childcare setting provides care for children aged 1–4 years, with a total capacity of 104 places.

The nursery is open Monday to Friday from 07:30 to 18:00, offering year-round provision. While staff build positive relationships with children, fostering a love for books and independence, the inspection highlighted areas for improvement in staff supervision, particularly in the baby room, and the implementation of a clear, sequenced curriculum.

The setting is actively addressing these areas, including scheduling Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) training and implementing new procedures to support children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND). Children benefit from outdoor learning opportunities, enhanced by additional funding for resources.

Leaders are working to improve parental partnerships by sharing more information about children's learning and daily routines.

What it's like

Leaders at this setting have failed to ensure adequate supervision of children, particularly in the baby room, compromising safety. While staff have positive relationships with children and foster a love of books and independence, their understanding of child development and a clear curriculum is lacking. This impacts children's communication and language skills, and strategies for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are not consistently implemented.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Leaders do not ensure strategies from external professionals to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are implemented into routines and practice. Although children are making progress, weaknesses in the implementation of planned strategies means the progress is slow for some children. Leaders have identified a special educational needs and/or disabilities skills and knowledge weakness and have scheduled special educational needs coordinator (SENCO) training with the local authority.

Outdoor space

Staff know the children well and use their additional funding to provide resources that will extend children's learning opportunities both indoors and outdoors.

Fantastic Nursery! My son has been attending for coming up 8 months and the staff are amazing with him. He started when he was 4 months old, he has amazing bonds with the staff, and they care for him so well. They cater to his allergies and I can see in his development how much he’s learning! He’s such a clever little boy, which is also thanks to all the hard work Partou put in, not just me! Cannot fault this nursery and I would recommend to anybody!

My son began attending Partou Nursery during the challenging period when Covid restrictions were still in place. It was a difficult time for everyone, but the dedicated staff at Partou consistently went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and safe. My son absolutely loved his time at Partou; it is a nurturing and secure environment for children. The location is fantastic, surrounded by a beautiful park with a pond, trees, squirrels, and birds, all away from the hustle and bustle of traffic. The manager and staff are always ready to assist with any concerns you may have. They closely monitor each child’s development and encourage learning through activities that align with the children’s interests. The children also become very independent, especially during meal times and toilet training. I can wholeheartedly recommend Partou Nursery.

My grandson attends your nursery and thoroughly enjoys it. He learns so much, the facilities are very good. Andrew the chef is so much more than a chef, his interaction with the babies and toddlers is a pleasure to watch. Kate and Jaycee particularly, in preschool, are very good with the children and always go above and beyond ! I would highly recommend Partou 👌

Our little one started here in November and so far so good! She is starting to really enjoy going to nursery and really likes Laura J her Key Person and the rest of the baby room team a lot. Laura keeps us really well updated on the app and we can see she's having a lot of fun. Thanks again guys!

We saw several nurseries before deciding to send our son to Partou and we are extremely happy with our decision. The setting is stunning, resources are excellent and the staff are just brilliant. He has had the best start with his keyworker and I'm sure this support will continue as he moves up through the rooms.
