Overall Experience

My son has attended the setting for nearly 2 years and has numerous additional needs which was identified very early on in him attending the setting. The staff on a personal level are kind and supportive of the children. On a professional level, lack understanding and experience. Staffing and hours

are inconsistent, meaning that they regularly cannot fulfil the hours my son is signed up for. My son has been thoroughly let down in terms of his Senco support - the excuses given are always lack of staff, training and staff sickness. I would never recommend this setting to anyone but especially if you think your child has any kind of additional need.

Overall Experience

Our son started at Mama Bear's when he turned two and he has had two months now at the nursery. He was warmly welcomed there and settled in fast and well. Within the first couple of weeks he seemed to be at ease when we dropped him off and has since then been in no rush to leave when we pick him up

at the end of the day! The nursery manager, his key person, and other staff have all helped make his adjustment very smooth and they have kept us updated on how our son is getting on. We would be very happy to recommend this nursery and we very much appreciate how well they have looked after our boy so far.

Overall Experience

Thank you dearly to all the staff at Mama Bears Whitchurch for providing such a loving, secure and stimulating place for the children. My boy has made lovely relationships with the other children and carers alike and he always seems happy and engaged when I pick him up. Of the other nurseries he's previously

attended, this settling seems by far the best managed and organised, with interesting, new activities set out every day in advance. Thank you sincerely for taking such excellent care!

Staff very warm and kind towards kids.
They are usually very attentive to children needs which makes me happy and very comfortable sending my child there. The fact that the encourage kids to learn new things and the patience they put into it makes me really glad.

Overall Experience

Our son really enjoys going to Mama Bear's Day Nursery and Pre-School (Whitchurch) and the staff have been wonderful. My only regret, after years of childcare struggles, is that we haven't decided on this nursery earlier as it is a pure joy to see our son thrive that much under the wide range of learning

and social activities arranged by the staff and the management of the nursery.
He is always happy to go in when we drop him off in the morning and finds a lot of new friends there. Sometimes he doesn't even want to go back home with us! The manager is lovely, very organised and always helpful. We get regular newsletters and updates keeping us up to date on things going on at the nursery.
We recommended this nursery to our friends as we were so impressed. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for fabulous childcare.

Overall Experience

We are really happy with how our child has settled at Mama Bears. After a year of upset with another childcare setting, he’s fitted in instantly. I love how all the team members didn’t hesitate to give our child a hug the minute he showed upset at drop off initially.
He is always happy to come to nursery

and comes home with lots of exciting stories to tell about his day.
We are looking forward to continuing to see him thrive at Mama Bears.

Overall Experience

I cannot say enough good things about this nursery. My little one loves going in everyday which definitely makes mornings a lot easier. I'm always so impressed by the range of activities set out in the mornings - I'm often tempted to stay myself! I had concerns about his speech before attending Mama

Bears but this has vastly improved and I've noticed a big difference in his confidence as a whole. Ultimately, all credit should go to the staff, the team are caring and fun and evidently has lovely close bonds with the children.

Amazing nursery in general, and after coming back from the Xmas break, the staff helped my child feel at ease, with lots of fun activities, stories and learning. Lovely staff, they go above and beyond, all in a happy, clean environment. Would recommend it over and over again.

Overall Experience

My daughter started at Mama Bears in October 2023. I have nothing but amazing things to say about the team there. She was made to feel so welcome and absolutely loves going on her days. She had been out of a nursery setting for over a year so was understandably feeling apprehensive about starting. But

seeing her so excited to go from the start has made it such an easy transition. All of the nursery staff and managers are amazing.

The best decision ever made.
There are no words to describe what a wonderful school it is. The staff are wonderful, attentive, concerned and passionate about what they do. My son loves all the staff members and is always happy to return to school. I couldn't ask for a better school than this. I recommend

this school to any parent. Thank you to all of you for the affection and love you give to all of us and for leaving us parents with a lighter heart when we leave our son with you. Because we know that he is well-delivered.

All staff are very friendly and welcoming, and all very good with my son who is for the most part non-verbal. Love the photo updates that I receive and the communication about what they’ll be focusing on each term.

My daughter has been here since she was two years old, and she has truly blossomed during her time at this nursery! Everything from her social skills to her vocabulary has come on faster than I ever imagined. The staff are so welcoming to both parents and children, and it is easy to address any queries

or questions about my daughter's day-to-day learning. I can't praise all the ladies enough for all their work with my daughter! Not a day has gone by that she hasn't wanted to go to nursery.
Thanks again, ladies.

Lovely preschool. My son came from a childminders, and within a few weeks, I could see such a change in him. He’s now very outgoing and has come out of his shell. He loves going every day to see all of the children and staff.

My child has attended Mama Bear's for 1 year and my child absolutely loves going, in fact every day of the week she asks to go to school. The staff are helpful, reliable and professional at all times, and I have had a positive experience and would recommend this setting to any parent for their child/children.

Overall Experience

Where do I begin;
From day one when I dropped off my boy, he was very tearful and the staff could tell I was upset as well. Within five minutes of leaving I had a phone call to reassure me that my boy was now playing with others and laughing.
I cannot put into words how amazing the team are, there

are not enough words to give them the praise that they deserve. They have welcomed us with open arms, and the difference I have seen in my boy is phenomenal.
The staff always ensure I am kept up to date with his day and how he is getting on, they are really supportive and encourage him to be his best self (this is no easy task!).
They are always doing something fun and educational, and he is so excited to tell me about his day when I pick him up.
Such an amazing place and I have and will continue to recommend to everyone I know.

I absolutely love it here. My son enjoys himself and is always doing fun things. I love how they keep you up-to-date throughout the whole day with what they’ve been up to, what they have eaten and nappy changes. All the staff are friendly and caring and it’s nice sending my son to nursery knowing he’s

well looked after.

Overall Experience

We are very pleased with the Gospel Hall Mama Bear's Day Nursery. We recently moved to UK and I was really worried about my son getting used to the new school and the environment. But he was really happy in his nursery for an entire 4 months period and we saw a lot of positive changes in him in his

social skills. He found really nice friends too. One member of staff is so kind and caring towards him and others are also really warm and played their role in our son's improvement. I am really happy and will definitely recommend this Nursery.
