Overall Experience

Our son started at Nuffy Bear in September 2024 and he absolutely loves it. He settled in quickly and is happy to be dropped off in the morning and is always so happy when we collect him in the evening. He adores his key worker (thank you to her!) and we can see that all the staff really care about

the happiness of all the children. We have seen him develop so many new skills since starting nursery and can see that they really encourage the children with their learning, for example with things such as using a spoon by themselves. He seems to enjoy the meals and snacks provided throughout the day and i just wish he would eat more of this at home! They do lots of different activities throughout the day which he loves getting involved in and we love seeing the pictures of what he has been up to. Overall the nursery seems well run and also good with the administration side of things - keeping us updated with things, billing processes etc.

We have been part of the Nuffy Bear Nursery since 2022 and we are so glad it is the Nursery we chose.
We love how personable the nursery has always been and it has never changed throughout the time we have been there. The team are incredible and everything the nursery does and provides is more than

you can imagine.
Amazing nursery we can never thank the team enough for everything they do.

Overall Experience

My son started 9 months ago and has been in the baby and toddler room. Since joining I haven't had a bad word to say about the staff or any experience we have had. The staff are excellent and show a genuine care for the children. I'm extremely happy to send my son every day.
The staff communicate

well and really friendly at drop off and pick up.
Moving from London I didn't think we would get the same quality of care and education but it's just as good. Highly recommended.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad that your son settled in so well and is learning new things every day. We have lots of things planned for him to continue his learning journey with us.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to Nuffy Bear since May 2024. She has loved going and the gradual settlements that they do are really great and can be changed if needed.
The staff are amazing and really work with the child and the level that they are at.
There are two rooms for under twos and over twos.

There is a shaded outside area where the children play. They take the children out and do yoga with them. 3-year-olds get free swimming lessons. Parents get a 40% discount at the gym which has started recently. Cannot fault the staff who are really great. You can just tell your child has had a great day. There is an app where you get updates on how much they have eaten, when they have had a nap and if they have gotten a bump during the day.
I was so worried about sending them to the nursery, felt so guilty and worried but she loves it.
Her spoon control with meals has really improved and she has learnt to take turns and has so much increasing confidence for going.

My two-year-old son has been attending the nursery since Jan 2024 and settled in very quickly, thanks to all the efforts made by the team. He loves his key worker and the other staff, and enjoys garden time the most. The nursery has been amazing in making him feel safe and looked after, I really can't

thank the team enough.

Our daughter had a hard time adjusting to full days at nursery and suffered with separation anxiety.
Her key worker has been fantastic. Caring and patient with our clingy child she is a godsend! The manager and the whole team have been so flexible and supportive during the adjustment.
I cannot thank

them all enough and our daughter has developed so well since being with them all.
Thank you Nuffy Bear!

Overall Experience

I am so happy that we managed to get a space for our daughter at Nuffy Bear, Medway. Her key people and the whole team have been amazing! They have supported my daughter through her transition from baby room to toddlers and she has learnt so much during her time there. My daughter loves her nursery

days and they have made putting my first child into nursery and returning to work so much easier! Thank you for all your hard work... if you are local to this nursery, it's definitely a great choice.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your review. She has settled in so well now she is in the toddler room and is always engaged in activities. We have lots more exciting things planned for her to support her in making further progress.

Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Nuffy Bear Nursery in Tunbridge Wells highly enough. Much like many new mums, I was hesitant to send my son to nursery when I returned to work. However, my attitude towards daycare has completely changed since my son began here. I don't just see it as somewhere he goes when I have

to work. They provide new experiences, education, support and truly care for him- and keep me up to date throughout the day which made that transition even easier. Every single one of the staff is incredible and makes it feel like a home away from home - actually, it is a lot more fun than home! He has come on leaps and bounds since starting here and I would be more than happy to recommend this nursery to anybody looking.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been with the nursery since March 2024 so we are only a few months in but so far I would 100%recommend the nursery to other parents. I was so worried about leaving my daughter at a nursery but the staff were so good at reassuring me and updating me on her progress. They really took their

time and helped her to settle in. I love it when I pick her up I get full updates and I can see her playing and enjoying her time. They are very honest and tell you if she is having a good or bad day which is nice to know you're always getting updated with the truth and not just what they think you would like to hear. The staff are so friendly and professional it's what made our decision to chose Nuffy Bears.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your review. We are glad that she has settled in so quickly and she is making progress in all areas. We will continue to provide activities and areas for her to explore and discover.

Overall Experience

Nuffy Bear Day Nursery have been nothing short of amazing since our son started there aged 9 months. His development has come on an incredible amount from the engaging interactions the staff give him on a constant basis. He had a medical emergency during his time at nursery and the staff could not have

been more attentive to him and went over and above to look after him. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nuffy to parents/parents-to-be.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your review. He has made lots of progress since joining us and we have lots planned to enable him to continue to learn and develop even further.

Overall Experience

My son has been with the nursery since 2022 and he is very happy there. The staff are so friendly and caring; they are good at welcoming my son at drop-offs and giving me sufficient updates during pick-ups. I also feel like my son is receiving the right level of attention when he is there which gives

me peace of mind at drop offs especially with his speech delay.
The only thing I’d say is it would be nice to get more child-specific updates through the app during the day in real-time; whenever I have received updates via the app on what my son is getting up to, it is usually on his day off! So it would be nice to see those updates much more closer to real-time.
Overall, lovely clean good nursery and I would 100% recommend! Preschoolers also get to attend swimming which is a great addition.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your feedback. We will work on approving observations each day so parents do receive them earlier.

Overall Experience

My son attends Nuffy Bear two full days a week and loves being there. We have found the staff very warm and friendly towards him. They have always tried to go that extra mile to provide fun activities throughout the day to keep him entertained as well as doing things with him that I would never have

the patience to do at home like messy tuft trays etc. I have also found them to be flexible with providing additional days of childcare when I have needed. My daughter started school in September but was also at Nuffy and I believe her start there prepared her well for that next step in relation to development and social interaction. She also benefitted from the weekly swim lesson provided by Nuffield Health every week! Would definitely recommend Nuffy Bear for anyone looking for a child-focused, personable nursery.

Both our children attend Nuffy Bear. Our daughter in the baby room and son in the main room. We have been attending the nursery since January 2021. Our children love the nursery and all the nursery staff. We get regular updates on our children’s progress but also daily updates via the new app. This

app is amazing to keep us up to date on a daily basis with what the children are doing each day. We highly recommend the nursery!

This has been a wonderful place for our child, they've given so much time and attention and some really strong bonds have been made. It's provided lots of entertainment as well as learning. The approach to get children involved with tasks and responsibilities like helping prepare lunch and helping the

younger children has paid dividends to help our child be caring and respectful. We're really grateful for the consistent care the nursery has taken over the years.

Our daughter started attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery when she was a year old in April 2022. The onboarding process was handled very well, and Evelyn enjoyed going from the first few sessions. Now in the big room, she absolutely loves going. With a special thanks to a couple of very special individuals,

who ensure handovers are as stress-free as possible for her if she has a little wobble.
We can’t speak highly enough of the staff at Nuffy Bear. One of the staff, in her role as manager, stands out with exceptional dedication, instilling in us the utmost confidence to entrust our daughter into their care.

Overall Experience

My son has been enrolled in Nuffy Bear Medway for eight months now, and in that time we have watched him grow and flourish leaps and bounds! He started just four months after breaking his femur which caused a delay in his physical development, but with the help of the amazing staff he is now confidently

walking! We have also seen a huge difference in his communication, language and motor skills, with him coming home each day having learnt something new. The staff are very professional and friendly, and I feel so confident leaving him in their care, as I can tell how much he is cared for by all of them. My son is at a stage where he is very shy in other environments but he always lights up with a smile when we walk in each morning. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to all of my friends and family.

Reply from Clare West, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery at Medway

Thank you for your review. I am so glad that you are happy with our service. It is so lovely to observe the development stages that he is quickly mastering now. Amazing!
