My little one started Bambinos when he was 2 and absolutely loves it. He gets so excited each week, going to see his friends and loves all the different activities he gets to do each week and his favourite place to be is in the garden! Bambinos is amazing and the nursery workers work so hard to provide
such great care towards the children, they always have time to spend with the parent and have a little chat when picking up my little one, it really makes you feel at ease knowing they are in the best care.

My son loves going to Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock and has done so since he started when he was twelve months old. All the staff are brilliant and the setting itself is great. He is always exhausted by the time he gets home which I think is a good sign he’s had a great day. Highly recommend.

My daughter attends this nursery and has done since Sept 2020. I was very concerned about leaving her, however, the staff in there have made it such a welcoming environment that she runs in excited every single day. We get regular feedback on her day, and the staff are always willing to discuss any
concerns with me and help me to create an action plan to resolve any issues at home (with speech or unwanted behaviour). The nursery manager could not be more friendly and helpful. Anytime I have called, she is happy and polite and so accommodating to any requests. My daughter has flourished here, her speech and social skills are amazing compared to when she started and she always loves going. Would recommend Bambinos Tavistock to anyone, for the staff, the setting, facilities, how it is run and the general feel of the environment.

Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock is a fantastic nursery. Our son has been attending since he was eleven months old. Staff are so friendly and approachable. At fifteen months we found out our son had a severe allergy, when we informed the nursery, the staff were more than accommodating and made us
feel safe and at ease. We feel nursery has really helped his development, we notice changes every week. He has a great relationship with the staff there and he is always kept busy with plenty of educational activities. I couldn't recommend them enough.

My little boy has been going to Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock since he was one. Every part of his journey at Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock has been fantastic, all the way from nought to two's, in which he had outstanding care from his key person and I could not have been more reassured that
he would have the most wonderful day. All his needs have been met by the whole team which is great, especially as a first-time mum and having to go back to work. Moving up into two to three's was a smooth and easy transition for him and he really enjoyed the new games and activities he could do in the new room with his friends. He is now in preschool and absolutely loves it, he runs through the door every morning and we can see how much he is maturing and developing with new skills in every aspect of growing up. They offer him seconds at meal times, we get regular updates on his development and feedback at the end of every day. We could not be happier with choosing to go with Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock and are so happy to see our little boy thriving in the setting.

I cannot praise the amazing team at Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock enough! Our children have been coming to Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock for the last three years and both have absolutely loved it. The team made us feel so welcome the moment we joined and it’s been so lovely to see the bonds
the children have made with not only their key workers but all the team over this time. From a parents perspective the nursery is managed so well and has great open communication, especially in the last year with all the changes that needed to happen with Covid-19. Nothing ever feels like too much trouble and we’re always greeted with a smile. Thank you so much to the team for making nursery and preschool, such a fabulous environment for our kiddies. I’d recommend them to anyone.

My boys have been attending Bambinos since they were 10 months old. They are now three. They absolutely love attending the nursery and get on well with children and staff alike. It is lovely to see them thriving at nursery and they have made huge leaps forward in terms of learning and development over
the last six months. I can't recommend Bambinos highly enough to anyone looking for a nursery that is like a home from home, with caring and attentive staff.

Bambinos Tavistock is such a lovely setting with wonderful staff. I have always felt completely at ease leaving my child, knowing that he will have a fun day.
He has learnt so much since starting there and comes home telling me all about his day with enthusiasm.
Cannot thank the staff enough.

My son's favourite day of the week is nursery day! He tries to get out of the car before we’ve even parked. All the staff are so lovely and the atmosphere is great. I viewed many nurseries before choosing Bambinos in Tavistock and I’m so happy with my choice, my son's confidence has grown massively,
and his speech has come on leaps and bounds. Highly recommend Bambinos to any parents.

My little boy started Bambinos at 6months old and as a first time mum I was rather dubious about leaving him at such a young age, Bambinos were so reassuring and I can honestly say he has thrived!
I can’t recommend Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock highly enough. The staff are great and sensory areas
are amazing. It’s just an overall great nursery for little ones of all ages!

I wish I had found Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock sooner. The change in my child since attending has been astronomical. He is confident, bubbly and always excited to go to nursery. The staff are outstanding and always greet us all with smiles and warmth. I feel so happy to leave him, confidently
knowing he is being well cared for and you cannot ask for more. They always have time for us as parents and are very respectful. They wash and dry clothes that have been heavily muddied/soiled and it astounds me every time. The food is my envy, I want to stay for the meals. He is never hungry and also, importantly, well watered. They are a truly wonderful nursery with staff that deserve complete acknowledgement of their hard work. Thank you.

My grandsons have been attending the nursery (mostly full-time) for the last 3 years (in babies, toddlers and pre-school) and have been very happy there and have formed good relationships with the staff. Staff are welcoming and caring, happy to chat to parents/grandparents/carers and know the children
well. The children love all the activities and skip in happily every day. I would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery, which has a very "home from home" atmosphere while remaining professional.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.863)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.863) out of 10 for Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 19 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.863 for Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock is calculated as follows: ( (215 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 240 Ratings = 4.863

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Bambinos Childcare Centre Tavistock is based on 19 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 54 number of registered child places is 10.8, which has been reached with 19 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
