My daughter has been attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery for over 2 years and absolutely loves it there. She has epilepsy and a learning delay and the staff there have gone above and beyond to help with her progress and development. We have regular meetings to set new targets and to keep me up to date
with her progress. She has come on so much since she started there and I’ll be so sad to see her leave when she starts reception next year.


There’s plenty of opportunities for parents to give input during parent meetings and there’s always tea parties and activities going on. The staff there encourage parents to come in for all of these and it’s amazing to watch the children in this environment, one that they are clearly so comfortable in.


Every member of the team at Nuffy Bear are clearly doing a fabulous job and the management are just as amazing. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough. I just wish there were more nurseries out there of this standard.

We have been at the nursery just over a year since my son was 15 months and I love it. The nursery is small, which was a priority for me having had experience of much larger nurseries. I feel that he gets a lot of attention from the staff, especially at the start when he was new. The setting is not
crowded and the infrastructure feels good. The nursery offers a variety of activities, it makes excellent (and frequent) use of the gym and outdoor space available to it and there are lots of opportunities throughout the year to see your child in action as they hold a lot of events/parties for families to attend. Finally, all the staff are very loving, which is really important for me when it comes to small children. So far, it has been a very positive experience for all of us.

My daughter has been at this nursery since she was 10 months old - the staff are amazing, are highly experienced, and have all been there for a long time. My daughter is now three, and is in the pre-school room that she loves.


My daughter was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in May and all the staff

and the chef at the nursery have been incredible in supporting me and my daughter through this. I can rely on the team at Nuffy Bear to administer her medicine and it is such a relief to me and my partner that she is in such professional care.


The wide range of activities they do there (because it's located in a gym), including swimming and yoga, is another reason I think it's an exceptional facility.


I love the nursery and all the staff, and would highly recommend it to anyone who was looking for a nursery in the area.

My Son has been attending Nuffy Bear Day Nursery almost a year now and he absolutely enjoys it. He has developed key skills in learning, social skills, other children, loves feeding himself, learning numbers and is obsessed with farm animals.
The staff are lovely and the Manager is extremely accommodating.
The nursery offers so many great activities including yoga, dance and swimming and many more. They have their own personal chef which provides and encourages healthy eating.


I highly recommend this nursery, the manager and her team do so much of a brilliant job and creating such a wonderful environment for my son and other kids.

My little boy absolutely loves going to this nursery every day, and that is a testament to what a great environment it is to be in. The range of activities (including the gymnastics and yoga which he loves!), the helpfulness and caring nature of the staff, the other wonderful children...it really is
an excellent nursery and we are so pleased that he is able to go there. He has been there for around a year moving from the baby to toddler room and the transition was good, his development is nurtured and encouraged, and he really is thriving there. The staff are very welcoming and give a good lowdown on what has happened during the day - he has continuous interaction and adventures, and there never seems a dull moment! We couldn't ask for more.

This is a truly great nursery. Most importantly, the staff really care about the kids and show great warmth, it helps that it is a relatively small nursery where everyone knows each other, you really get a personal touch. My daughter started at 1 year and has been attending for 9 months - she sleeps
well, eats lots of healthy food, and is happy which is all you can wish for at this age.


They do a variety of activities and she definitely seems stimulated and challenged. The official outdoor space isn't great which I was worried about for my very energetic one but they use a next door sports ground, nearby parks, and the gym studios so that they have proper space to run around in.


The managers are great and the staff seem happy - there does not appear to have been any staff turnover in the 9 months she has been going which is a great sign.

My son started Nuffy Bear at 16 months, like most children cried when I dropped him off, as there were no familiar faces. As a 1st time mother this was different but knew within time he would settle. I had previously enrolled him in a different nursery but deep down felt something didn't feel right,
so starting searching again and I'm grateful I found Nuffy Bear. When visiting I felt it was small but I loved how all staff were friendly/caring. The children also seemed happy and well looked after - plus good Ofsted rating.


When my son started he had a smooth settling in period and as I had returned back to work I felt at ease knowing he was in safe hands. He's now been at Nuffy Bear for 5 months and has developed so much with how he plays with other children, loves feeding himself, learning numbers/fruit, nursery rhymes and speaking loads at home.
I love hearing his daily reports when I pick him up and about all the activities the children are exposed too from soft play, playing outside, dance class, art, swimming etc.

My son loves nursery and I feel very happy that he is safe and secure there. After the first month of settling-in nerves from him and myself, he now toddles off without so much of a backwards glance! The nursery team are very friendly and it’s lovely to see the bond between them and my little boy. We
feel lucky to have found such a good nursery on our doorstep.

Out daughter has been attending the nursery for over 2 years now. I can truly say that the nursery has become our daughter's second home.
We had initial teething problems when we first started the nursery, but the Manager would immediately look into the issues and dealt with them promptly and implementing
any necessary actions.
She enjoys freshly cooked food made by the nursery chef in the onsite kitchen.
The nursery is housed within the gym, so the children can enjoy classes of Yoga and swimming lessons too.
Recently the nursery has offered extended hours and this is great for working parents.
The nursery staff are all well qualified and provide regular updates on your child's development.
Over the 2 years, through the staff and management's care we know that our daughter is happy, infact some days does not want to come home !!:)

We would highly recommend Nuffy Bear Nursery. Our daughter started when she was 6 months old and is now 2 and a half. Nuffy Bear has truly become an extension of our family and we are looking forward to having our second daughter attending soon. The quality, care and dedication of the entire team and
the variety of activities and learning are what makes this place a top quality nursery. Nutritious meals are prepared daily by an on-site chef and every week, the kids are baking/cooking. Our daughter is happy, healthy, making friends and learning so much.

Our kid loves going to Nuffy Bear! The staff is friendly, loving but also professional. I like the fact that they offer a wide range of activities to the kids both inside and outside: There is a lot of messy play with paint, home made play dough, sand and other materials, outings, active learning with
age specific toys.
The only downside is that they are quite strict with when your kid is not well but understandable as they want to avoid spreading any bug around the nursery.

We love this nursery and are very happy that our child is there. The only thing that lets it down a bit is the lack of outside space! The staff are lovely and the management really cares about the kids, works hard and is effective - there have been quite a few new initiatives over the last year.

I'd highly recommend Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Brondesbury Park to my family and friends. Our son and daughter have been there since they were 2.5 and 10 months old, they attended a different nursery prior to that. We were so impressed at our first visit by the staff, cleanliness, range of wooden toys
and activities, and the baby room is set up like a comfortable home. In the toddler and pre-school rooms, they have well planned stimulating, fun and learning activities balanced with exercise (yoga and swimming) and plenty of time in the studio to play, ride and dance. Food is especially good, great variety and focus on healthy nutritious meals, they also have cookery classes for the kids every week. For peace of mind, safety and security measures are very good, and staff provide a good and always friendly handover at pick up. My kids are happy, confident and their independence is growing, I'm extremely happy too!

Nuffy Bear has truly become an extension of our family over the last three years and counting. A few of the staff have come and gone, but much more have remained. This stability, the dedication of the entire team, the security, the variety of age-appropriate activities and learning are what make this
place a top quality nursery. Nutritious meals are prepared daily by an on-site chef and they are as tasty as they sound on the rotating lunch and tea menus! Our children seem happy, healthy, making friends and they are learning so much at Nuffy Bear Brondesbury Park.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.330)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.330) out of 10 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Brondesbury Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.630 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Brondesbury Park is calculated as follows: ( (54 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 81 Ratings = 4.63

  • 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 4.7 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Brondesbury Park is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 34 number of registered child places is 6.8, which has been reached with 7 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.
