My little one was with Bridges until the start of reception. Staff are friendly and my little one loved going to the nursery every time.

My son has been attending this nursery for over 2 years now - the staff here are fantastic! The activities they do with the children are fantastic too! Such as soft play, walks, singing at the library. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone! My son loves it there!

My eldest little boy has been attending The Bridges Nursery from the age of 8months old he has been looked after to a high standard right through the nursery, his development was amazing. When he started school he was able to do all his basics this was with a lot of help from the staff at The Bridges.
He now attends the out of school club within The Bridges Nursery and he enjoys doing all the activities, all the staff are amazing everyone is always welcoming. I've also not long went back to work after having my second child who is now 10months old, he has been attending The Bridges for the last month he has settled really well. Staff have made me feel relaxed and happy to leave him while I go to work making something difficult a lot easier. Thanks to everyone at The Bridges Nursery school for all your hard work.

I am extremely happy with the level of care my children receive from Bridges. The staff are always friendly and approachable. My three children love it here!
I love how after each session feedback is given and how caring the staff are towards my children. I highly recommend this nursery.

Excellent nursery, staff are fab with kids and feedback is given after each session. The improvement in my son since he started a few months back it amazing! It is handy how they use social media frequently and can be easily contacted. Couldn’t recommend this nursery enough!

The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and I couldn’t have got through half of my child’s meltdowns without them. They have been an absolute godsend, I would recommend the nursery to anyone. All the staff are like family.

Fabulous nursery, every staff member knows my child by name, not just his key workers. Couldn’t be happier with the care provided.

All staff ensure all children are safe and happy, good interface between staff and parents and all children treated equally too. A good range of trips out and excursions too for children of all ages. My children are very happy there.

My son has been attending Bridges for three years now using their pick up and after school club. I wouldn't be able to work if I didn't have the support and flexibility of Bridges. My son is happy and content when he knows its a Bridges day (as we call it) when they are picking him up from school.
The after school room is fab, friendly and there is lots to entertain.
All the staff are lovely.

The nursery is very warm and welcoming. I was very apprehensive when I decided to put my son in a nursery but the managers and staff made me feel at ease immediately. It’s very relaxed and they’re so attentive to my sons needs. Daily reports are done for him and I trust the staff. Such a lovely place!

I recently visited this nursery with my partner whilst looking for a place for our baby when I return to work. We were very impressed with the warm friendly atmosphere and the helpful and knowledgeable staff.
The nursery is lovely with lots of things going on, the children all seemed happy and busy
having fun. The menus look good and I loved the fact you got a little sheet each day with observations and photos of what your child had been doing during the day. The staff made us feel welcome and less anxious about leaving our child, we can't wait for my child to start!

I am extremely happy with the level of care my children have received over the Christmas period. Both my children had a lovely time in the out of school club, creating Christmas decorations and going on trips.
My youngest attends the preschool daily and enjoys it lots, especially the trip to the panto
which was well organised and fun for all.
The staff at the Bridges Nursery are helpful and caring and very informative about how your child has been during the day.

Both my daughters have attended Bridges Nursery from being babies. My youngest daughter is now in the pre-school room and my eldest attends the holiday club. It is daunting leaving your child to be cared for by someone else but I know that I can rest assured that they are receiving the best possible
care. Staff are very friendly and approachable. My daughters have formed a lovely bond with the staff and I know that they feel loved, secure and cared for. There’s always a range of activities to keep them entertained and a wide range of age appropriate toys.
They get a varied menu included, always including fruit/veg. Staff work very hard to follow each child’s routine and meet their individual needs. They often go on trips to local libraries/soft play/parks, etc. which my children love.
I would definitely recommend bridges nursery.
