Overall Experience

We feel so lucky that we found Atelier Nursery Bath, our family have been a part of this setting since 2016. Our children are happy and confident and love exploring and learning and Atelier Nursery have played a large part in their development. The relationships with the team are key to the nursery's

success, the staff are engaged and the activities and resources are wide and varied. We loved that children are able to explore the whole setting at their own pace and are not restricted to certain areas. For us, the free flow has been brilliant for our children to be able to play together as they would at home. Can't recommend Atelier Nursery highly enough.

Overall Experience

Atelier has given our son the most wonderful start to his educational journey. He loves his time at the nursery and spending time in a free-flow setting that allows him to learn and play with all ages who attend. Staff ensure a nurturing environment and focus on child-led learning. The team are passionate

and caring about their work and all the families that attend. Our son is bilingual and they have been great at supporting this at nursery, using keywords that he uses at home. I would recommend the nursery without hesitation to anyone looking.

Overall Experience

Both of our daughters have been at Atelier for their whole pre-school time. My eldest started in 2016 and we’ve been there ever since.
I can’t fault the nursery. It is a community that has provided a safe, fun and engaging place for my children to be and the team have become like extended family.

They’ve been there through incredibly challenging periods and supported us all throughout them.
The care they take building a team is incredible, they are all phenomenal. My girls have thrived here and I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Overall Experience

Atelier Nursery Bath has provided a nourishing and caring environment for my son since he was 10-months old. He is now a confident, bright and happy 3-year old and we can’t thank Atelier Nursery Bath enough for their investment in his development and growth. They are constantly providing opportunities

for learning and educational play with creative activities including clay work, water, story-telling, cooking and outdoor activities. So many things that I could not have done for him at home. They also provide a varied and nutritional diet. I cannot recommend them enough.

Overall Experience

Our daughter spent three happy years with the manager and her team at Atelier Nursery Bath. She left as a kind, sociable and emotionally intelligent four-year-old. The connection she had to her key worker was deeply loving, secure and nurturing and also reassuring for us as first-time parents. Our daughter

has thrived at school since leaving Atelier Nursery Bath and we are eternally grateful for the time, care and effort Atelier Nursery Bath put into her development. Despite moving some distance from the nursey after the birth of our second child in 2019, we had no hesitation in sending him to Atelier Nursery Bath, where he is currently looked after admirably by his key workers. Our son has a strong connection with his key workers and they play a large part in cultivating the caring, loving and sensitive child he is today. Our son, unfortunately, contracted sepsis and bacterial meningitis whilst at home with us in 2020, the fantastic support all of the team at the nursery provided us during his 4-weeks in the hospital was invaluable.

Overall Experience

Our son, who has special educational needs, has been at Atelier since September 2019 and has received incredible support - over and above what we would have ever expected of an early years setting. As a result he is thriving beyond our wildest expectations. He joined just a few months before the effects

of the pandemic took hold. I was impressed how incredibly open and supportive the team were throughout that stressful time, providing daily inspiration for activities to do with our children at home; songs, videos, links to virtual art gallery tours, staff cookery demos - the list goes on. Atelier have since worked hard to secure additional support for his speech and language needs, and have helped him put strategies in place to overcome his anxieties around noise and transition. He's transformed from a shy, anxious boy to a confident child who's more than ready to start school. This seemed hard to imagine just a few months ago. Thank you Atelier!

from Dagmara D (Mother of Child) published on 25 May 2020

Overall Experience

Free flow nursery where staff often unavailable during drop off and/or pick up times. We often didn’t know whether the child slept or ate or even used the potty. On a few occasions found my eldest crying in the toilet without his pants on and no-one to assist him. The sleeping area is very limited inside

hence be prepared that your older child will be sleeping outside come rain or shine. No ideal for an asthmatic child. Lack of pegs, my two always shared their pegs with another 2-3 kids resulting in displaced bags and pieces of clothes everywhere.
Outdoor space is limited.
Free flow idea as much as it appears great in theory in practice sometimes resulted in a lack of ownership as to who actually looked after my child that day. Child may engage in activities however I felt my one often chose not to hence his experience was limited.

Overall Experience

We are thrilled that our son has been able to get a place at Atelier Nursery, the staff are wonderful, warm, friendly and so supportive of both our son and family.
We love the format of the family groups, with a mix of ages which we know stimulates our son well and allows him to gain so much from

the people around him, forming lovely relationships. Similarly, the free flow nature of the nursery itself is building his independence and confidence to explore, able to move to the space or activity he is drawn to day to day, moment to moment. We only wish we could stay and play all day, there are always so many different thrilling activities going on.

Review of
Atelier Nursery Chippenham
from Sarah H (Mother of Child) published on 16 December 2019

Overall Experience

Atelier have the most outstanding offering in this area. We visited a couple of nurseries prior to visiting Atelier and were considering me not returning to work as we weren’t comfortable with the settings we’d seen. Then we saw Atelier and were instantly overwhelmed by the caring nature of the staff

and the amazing opportunities and space it had to offer. I signed my son up immediately. During settling in sessions, we worked together and I felt just as supported as my son. My son has been going since it opened and will leave next year when he goes to school - I don’t know what I’ll do without them. All of the staff make an effort to get to know each child and the parents, it really has a family feel. My son loves the free flow and has absolutely flourished here. His development has consistently been encouraged and he loves it!

Overall Experience

Our daughter loves the free flow approach at Atelier and has been attending for 2 years now. The staff are all very friendly and it is obvious they genuinely care about the children. It is more expensive than other nurseries in Chippenham but the facilities, opportunities for exploration and play are

excellent. I found choosing a nursery quite daunting but the warmth and welcome we received at Atelier made it an easy choice for us.

Overall Experience

There are many things I love about Atelier. My little one is such a sensitive soul and the entire team has been so loving and supportive from day one. It took ages to get him settled and everyone involved from management, his keyworker, whoever was at the door at drop off, were so welcoming and warm.

Everyone knew his name from the beginning and that to me instantly made me confident that he was in great hands. I love the free flow concept and feel like all the children seem so happy there. So thank you Atelier.

Overall Experience

Atelier is the most wonderful nursery I could have wished to send our children to. Both of our daughters have loved their time here. The environment is relaxed, inspiring and welcoming, as are the staff. It feels more like a family than anything else and they will always go the extra mile. If your child

enjoys feeling free to explore, learn and grow, then Atelier is for you, without question.

Review of
Atelier Nursery Chippenham
from Christopher D (Father of Child) published on 8 November 2019

Overall Experience

Our daughters joined Atelier shortly after the Chippenham nursery opened. Their previous nursery was fine but it was obvious from the outset that Atelier was a cut above average.
The building and garden are great and the management are obviously well-organised and proactive. However the most important

factor is obviously the staff. We were interested to note the rigorous selection and trialling of key workers when the nursery opened. It was worth it - the staff are organised, imaginative, energetic and positive.
We were initially slightly sceptical about the "free-flow" approach but have since become converts given it's applied so well. We still don't really "get" some of the Atelier terminology or theory employed but it clearly works really well. So our quibbles have proved wrong!
Atelier is slightly more expensive than average but both our children have been very happy and we have always had 100% confidence in the staff.

Overall Experience

Atelier is a wonderful nursery, it's exceeded our expectations in every way. The staff are amazing and I feel like I am leaving our son with a loving family each day, where he will be safe, happy and nurtured each day. He adores it! I love their family group system which means our son doesn't change

rooms or key worker on a regular basis. Instead his group are consistent and he benefits from learning to interact with children of different ages. I can't speak highly enough of Atelier, they take nurseries to another level!
