A wonderful nursery. My son has progressed massively since attending Nuffy Bears, he has settled so well and now runs off and gets stuck in as soon as he gets in! All the staff have really invested and taken their time to get to know him and what works for him. I know he looks forward to nursery every
morning and I can't thank the team enough for that. I honestly couldn't imagine him anywhere else.

Reply from Elaine Eastmond, Nursery Manager at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth

Thank you for such a positive review, it's so nice to see the children coming into the nursery so happy and ready to learn.

The nursery staff have made my son very welcome even when he is not in his best mood. Thanks to them he is very social and knows how to approach new kids and play with them. He has learned a lot of new skills and loves singing all the nursery rhymes.
They are supporting him through a difficult time.

My son has attended this nursery for just over a year now and I have no complaints. He is growing and becoming much more independent. The staff members are lovely and show my son nothing but love and kindness. I am always telling people how great the nursery is, their facilities and activities. I love
that they use their outside space and explore the local nature and spaces.

I feel very relaxed when leaving my son with the Nuffy Bear team. They have excellent communication and are a close team who genuinely love all the kids. He brings home lovely art and I feel it's really helped his development and social skills. He was ten months old when he started over a year ago,
out of the pandemic and was shy but now he's really come out of his shell and runs into the place excited to see all the staff and his friends. Would highly recommend the girls are a god send for helping me go back to work.

The team at Nuffy were excellent at assisting us through our settling period for our 15-month-old son. The care he received has been excellent and we quickly felt very comfortable leaving him with the room leader and her team who were very friendly and responsive to our questions.

We have loved our time at Nuffy Bear Wandsworth, our son is thriving under their care. He began at 13 months and is now almost 2 and a half so has been in the baby room and now toddler/pre-school room. I love that it is a small nursery and that I think is perfect for babies; plus the mixing of ages
brings out both the comforting nature of the older ones and helps the younger ones to mature. The lovely ladies in the baby room are wonderful (everyone is wonderful but my son had a particularly good rapport with those two), and it's lovely to have my son's key person in the older room too. My son is always very happy at the end of the day. If I were to have a second child, I would have no worries leaving a 6-month-old at Nuffy Bear, they are completely trustworthy and really love the kids. The nursery manager is fab and gives helpful tips too. We will be very sad to leave when the time comes!

My little boy has been at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth for almost three months now and I couldn't be happier with the team and the care he’s receiving. It was a big change for him and he took a while to settle but everyone was so patient with him (and me!) and he now absolutely loves his key worker
and the rest of the staff. He reaches out for them in the morning and waves me off quite happily, and I can tell when I pick him up that he’s enjoyed his day. The food and activities are great, and he’s learning so much from being around the other children. It means so much to me that he’s being looked after by such a warm and caring team - they really are just lovely, and I am so grateful to them.

Our daughter joined the nursery from the beginning of September. Prior to joining the nursery our daughter had been at another nursery (not in London) so we were a little worried how she would settle into a new nursery environment. The nursery from the start put our minds at rest from the very beginning.
Our daughter had a 'getting to know' session pre-going in full time. The whole team welcomed our daughter with open arms. The outdoor space (being in a park) is fantastic and the nursery prides itself on ensuring the children get outside. All of the team at the nursery are welcoming and our daughter goes in happily and is always happy when she leaves. The care in our opinion is excellent and the dedication the team hold is wonderful. It is great to be able to talk to the team and understand their thoughts on the progress of your child. The standard of the food at the nursery is great (you get to see a menu example) too. I would highly recommend this nursery.

My daughter has been at the nursery for two years and she loves it. The staff are very warm and friendly and each day she runs in to greet them and is genuinely happy to be there. The activities they take part in are engaging and fun and her development over time has been very evident. In the beginning,
the nursery was particularly good with settling in, the staff were patient and informative making the transition to returning to work much easier for us. The nursery has dealt extremely well throughout the pandemic and the focus has remained on the children and their wellbeing.

Our son has been with Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth for nearly two years and we are very happy with their service and care for our child. Each day they welcome all the children with smiles and enthusiasm and the children leave happy and tired after a day of fun and creative activities. It's also
been great to watch how the nursery has adapted during the pandemic, they communicate efficiently with us of any changes and still have big smiles on their faces after such a challenging year.

Our daughter settled in very well and quickly. The staff are very welcoming and all the children run in to greet them, which surely is a very good sign. The nursery is more like a family and the communication between staff, management and parents is excellent. There seems to be a vast variety of activities
that the children do and they play and walk in the park daily. I would highly recommend.

Outstanding nursery at every level. We're both healthcare workers and were let down by another nursery who didn’t provide any service during lockdown whilst we had to continue working. The nusery manager has embraced us from the first moment, so we were able to keep our jobs and continue to help other
people. The team, showing the level of professionalism and dedication they hold, continued to show up every day in lockdown, and kept running the nursery to the highest standards, putting themselves at risk, whilst most of the country was furloughed. It’s people like them who allowed the hospitals to continue working, by supporting parents with young children. They are heroes as well and should be recognised as so.
Staff at this nursery are the most caring and loving people I have ever met. I am grateful to every single one of them, they have been the biggest support we’ve had during a very difficult time recently. Thank you! 100000 stars!

My son has been attending the nursery since June 2019 and has always been very happy to go in the morning and has a smile on his face when he is picked up in the evening. I know that he feels very comfortable being there and is well looked after. I would especially like to give praise on how the nursery
handled the lockdown and welcomed the children back as soon as they were able and made it feel as normal as possible for the little ones.

The staff are pleasant and kind, and I feel happy leaving my children there. They go out on outdoor activities regularly, including feeding the ducks and playing football. The nursery also provides a fun and stimulating environment.

This nursery is an absolute treasure because the staff and the nursery manager are so warm, patient, loving and caring. My son loves going there and since he started a year ago, he became more confident, more independent and more open. I also appreciate how the nursery handled the lockdown. It is family-focused
and no doubt it was the best choice for us.

My daughter has been at this nursery for the past year and she’s always been so happy to arrive at the door. She loves her days there as they are full of fun. The staff at the nursery are all fabulous, especially the lady who runs the nursery.
She’s learnt and developed so much and whilst it doesn’t
have its own outside space, as it’s located in the middle of the park they go outside to play and on nature walks every day. I’d highly recommend this nursery.

My son has been at Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth since September 2018.
He is really happy here and is excited to go and always constantly talking about his teachers and friends at home.


All the staff are very welcoming and friendly and give daily reports regarding my son on collection.


The

weekly swimming lessons, huge outdoor space, parents’ evening and the uniform are big pluses for me!


Overall, I am happy with the nursery and I’m glad I chose to send my son here.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.791)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.791) out of 10 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth 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 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 4 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 4.583 for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth is calculated as follows: ( (30 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.583

  • 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 4.208 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Nuffy Bear Day Nursery Wandsworth is based on 4 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 = 3.375

    • 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 24 number of registered child places is 4.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 4.8 = 0.833

  • 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.
